Obadiah and Jonah: Continental Commentaries
Professor Wolff's clear and thorough
orientation to the collection of oracles in
the book of Obadiah and to the narrative art
of the book of Jonah. Differently, both
prophets provide an answer to what the
interaction is between the whole of humanity
God has created—and His people in particular.
