For theologians and students of biblical literature

Offers a fresh perspective on faith and divine silence

You will deepen your understanding of biblical lamentation

This insightful book explores the theological depth of lament psalms.

Examining the dialogic structure of biblical psalms of lament, this book develops observations about voicing out of the work of Mikhail Bakhtin, utilized to re-evaluate the theological expression of lament psalms as well as components of Israel's rhetorical relationship with its deity. What emerges is a theology that gives voice to the tension that existed between faith in a god who practises flawless "hesed," or covenantal loyalty, and the experience of God's failure to uphold his side of the bargain.
