Publisher Synopsis
Drawing from zooarchaeology, paleoanthropology, and animal studies, as well as employing the best of Psalms scholarship, Arthur Walker-Jones offers a rich interdisciplinary study of Psalms 42-72. It is one of the most sophisticated yet engagingly written commentaries in the Earth Bible Commentary series to date. After reading Walker-Jones's commentary, you will not read the Psalms the same way ever again. * William P. Brown, Professor of Old Testament, Columbia Theological Seminary, USA * The subtitle of Psalms Book Two: An Earth Bible Commentary-As A Doe Groans-points to the unique emphasis that Arthur Walker Jones gives to this ecological commentary on Psalms 42-72. He characterizes animals as co-evolved and hence his interdisciplinary and intersectional studies bring the same interpretive lens to humans and animals in his eco-critical reading of the Book of Psalms 42-72. A unique approach in the series to date. * Elaine Wainwright, Professor Emeritus, University of Auckland, New Zealand * Read more...
