The author challenges the traditional scholarship and emphasizes that there is the evidence to suggest that the book should be viewed as a Judahite text - a book that was composed in the late sixth or early fifth century B.C.E.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBos provides an overview of the state of prophetic research, as well as a discussion of genre and the generation of prophetic books, linguistic dating and provenance; and a survey of Hosea research. Bos discusses various aspects of the book of Hosea that aim to prove his argument the book was composed in Persian-period Yehud - the anti-monarchical ideology of the book, the dual theme of 'Exile' and 'Return' which is consistent with the discourse found in other Judahite books dating to the sixth century; and the historiographical traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"T.\u0026 T.Clark Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48686092386539,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":96.96,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780567657176-1.jpg?v=1781628529","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9780567657176","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
