UBCS OT 15: Ezekiel

Ezekiel is a transitional character writing in times of dramatic change. A
priest without a temple, called to the prophetic office; an exile without a
country, writing to his fellow exiles; a public figure for a while without a
voice, Ezekiel composes a magnum opus that touched the hearts and minds of his
generation and a work that continues to speak of the power and love of God more
than two thousand years later.
Steven Tuell has captured the breadth and depth of the man and his profound
recognition of the power and grace of God for a disenfranchised community. He
has provided clear understanding of a complex book of the Bible that many in
the past have found confusing and murky. He clarifies the theological
underpinnings of the text and brings the brilliance of this book into the
light. His explanation of the visionary closing chapters of the book that
center on a new nation and a new center of worship is cogent and
clear.
Steve Tuell is Associate Professor of Old Testament at Pittsburgh
Theological Seminary. He has authored a study of Ezekiel 40-48 in the Harvard
Semitic Monographs series as well as 1 and 2 Chronicles in the
Interpretation series.
'Tuell's splendid commentary on Ezekiel lives fully up to expectations. He
brings to his task both literary sensitivity and profound theological
reflection, combining a thorough knowledge of the text and the history of its
interpretation with a flair for innovative insight.' - Paul M. Joyce
