By examining Ezekiel’s use of \u003cem\u003eDeuteronomy\u003c\/em\u003e’s language and concepts, Gile stresses that the prophet not only accepted distinctive elements of Deuteronomic theology but in some cases drew from specific texts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe main body of this volume describes \u003cem\u003eDeuteronomy\u003c\/em\u003e’s influence on Ezekiel under five main categories: Ezekiel’s language and conception of idolatry, the rise and fall of Israel in chapter 16, Ezekiel’s view of Israel’s history in chapter 20, the scattering of Israel as an image for exile, and the related motif of gathering as an image for return to the land. Gile concludes that Ezekiel’s use of its language for his messages of indictment, judgment, and hope shows that the prophet regarded \u003cem\u003eDeuteronomy\u003c\/em\u003e, along with the Holiness Code, as Yahweh’s torah given to Israel in the wilderness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47596370460908,"sku":"9780567701336","price":137.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780567701336-ezekiel-and-the-world-of-deuteronomy.jpg?v=1777922837"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/affiliate-professor-jason-gile.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
