James Nogalski's Introduction to the Hebrew Prophets builds on recent discussions of the prophetic literature as scribal curriculum designed to foster intellectual and spiritual depth regarding the prophetic message "from the time of the kings of Assyria" through the Persian period (Neh 9:32 CEB). Each of the four scrolls plays a distinctive part in this curriculum. Nogalski's treatment of each scroll offers new lenses to see the extent that chronology shapes the Hebrew prophets, to hear the theological debates and affirmations that led to the scrolls' formation over time, and to recognize the outlines of how the shaping process unfolds in each scroll.
