Rethinking the great literary prophets whose ministry ran from the eighth to the sixth centuries BCE--Amos, Hosea, First Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Second Isaiah, and Job-- Thinking about the Prophets examines their often-shocking teachings in light of their times, their influence on later thinkers, and their enduring lessons for all of us.

Reviews
"Seeskin innovatively shows us that the prophets were thinkers too and that their thinking has had an indelible impact on Western understandings of God, the world, and human responsibility. Erudite and accessible as well, this work would be an excellent text in college-level courses on biblical literature or Jewish thought and in adult education settings."--Judith R. Baskin, Philip H. Knight Professor of Humanities Emerita, University of Oregon, " Thinking about the Prophets is a significant contribution to understanding the institution of Israelite prophecy as fundamentally an ethical project and to understanding the prophets as moral thinkers taking their rightful place in the long history of moral social thinkers in the Jewish and Western philosophical tradition."--Steven P. Kepnes, professor of world religions and of religion and Jewish studies, Colgate University, "Erudite and accessible, this insightful analysis will appeal to any reader interested in the Bible, the philosophy of religion, or simply the history and literature of the ancient world."-- Publishers Weekly
