Overview
This volume brings together a group of Old Testament experts to discuss common issues in and approaches to interpreting an underrepresented section of the Hebrew Bible: the five scrolls of the Megilloth. Contributors provide fresh and innovative readings on Ruth, Song of Songs, Ecclesiastes, Lamentations, and Esther with an emphasis on biblical theology.
Reading the Megilloth shows the importance of attending to each of the scrolls as a work in its own right, examines the possibilities found in reading them as a corpus, and demonstrates a range of fruitful ways the books of the Megilloth can be read.
Readers will discover why the books that make up the Megilloth remain important for appreciating the breadth of the message of the Old Testament.
