Images and Prophecy in the Ancient Eastern Mediterranean by Martti Nissinen PDF Summary

Book Description: "This collection of essays examines the interrelationships between text and image particularly the ways in which iconography and/or references to images are used to depict prophetic actions or support prophetic messages. Textual and iconographic remains are examined from Israel and Judah, Egypt, Greece and Persia. Prophetic figures represented include Isaiah, Trito-Isaiah, Deborah, and Ezekiel, with royal imagery being examined as it relates to 'Daughter Zion', the role of the queen in Minoan prophetic traditions, and the modeling of kingship in Judean history by the Chronicler. This richly-illustrated volume originated in the Prophetic Texts and Their Ancient Contexts session in the 2005 Society of Biblical Literature annual meeting"--back cover.
