Galileans under Jerusalem and Roman Rule

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Collected here is the accumulated wisdom of decades of multidisciplinary research and learning that paints a complex, dynamic portrait of the lives and circumstances of ancient Galileans. Richard Horsley has long pushed scholars of early Judaism and Christianity to think broader yet with more nuance, synthetically but without generalizations, and to think critically, even self-critically, about our sources, methods, and theories of historical reconstruction. Horsley provides a vivid, nuanced, and engaging account of first-century Galilean history, which here appears to have been considerably distant from nearby Judea.”

God Trauma and Wisdom Therapy

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“With acute sensitivity to the devastating effects of trauma, Habel proves yet again to be an insightful guide to and through the book of Job. Habel brings decades of skill as an interpreter of Job into conversation with studies on the psychic, social, and theological consequences of traumatic experiences. For all who have suffered trauma or know others who have, Habel artfully presents the book of Job as a profound therapeutic and spiritual resource for responding to, working through, and ultimately healing from the consequences of catastrophic trauma.”
