"This book, an expanded translation of the Hebrew original, is a
penetrating study of early Hebrew prophecy as portrayed in the Old
Testament. Professor Uffenheimer discusses the historical,
theological and social aspects of this unique phenomenon, from its
beginnings to the emergence of classical prophecy in the 8th century
B.C.E. - a period stretching from the prophetic leadership of Moses
and the charismatic savior-judges, through the court prophets of the
United Monarchy, to the militant prophets of the Northern Kingdom,
culminating in the internal crisis under Jehu that led to the
evolution of classical prophecy."--BOOK JACKET.
