Ezekiel's Hierarchical World: Wrestling With A Tiered Reality

Ezekiel's Hierarchical World: Wrestling With A Tiered Reality (Symposium Series) (Society of Biblical Literature Symposium)
- Used Book in Good Condition
Can we live with the God of Ezekiel? Can we relate to a God who has established a multilayered hierarchy that separates the divine from the human, who creates boundaries that segregate people from the temple, the priesthood, and the glory of the Lord? In contrast to those who suggest that Ezekiel should no longer be read as an authoritative part of the canon, the essays in this volume engage Ezekielâ€™s hierarchical world directly, neither dismissing it out of hand nor accepting it uncritically. By wedding theological interest and reflection with serious biblical exegesis and criticism, this work helps readers to understand Ezekielâ€™s hierarchical theologyâ€”especially the bookâ€™s views on creation, priesthood, and land. It thus equips readers to form their own evaluations of the relevance of Ezekielâ€™s theology for today.
