Description

The Land and Its Kings: 1-2 KingsIn The Land and Its Kings biblical scholar Johanna van Wijk Bos accompanies the reader across a large sweep of the story of Israel, from the end of King David's reign through the fall of Jerusalem approximately 400 years later. She views these memories of Israel's past, as they are woven together in Kings, from the perspective of the traumatic context of postexilic Judah. Van Wijk Bos writes as a scholar of the Bible with deep commitments to feminism

In The Land and Its Kings biblical scholar Johanna van Wijk-Bos accompanies the reader across a large sweep of the story of Israel, from the end of King David's reign through the fall of Jerusalem approximately 400 years later. She views these memories of Israel's past, as they are woven together in Kings, from the perspective of the traumatic context of postexilic Judah.

Van Wijk-Bos writes as a scholar of the Bible with deep commitments to feminism and issues of gender within patriarchal structures and ideologies. The voices and presence of women in the accounts receive special attention.

As in the previous volumes of A People and a Land, van Wijk-Bos offers a close reading of the Hebrew text in translation to reacquaint readers with the path taken by Israel as the people embraced a form of monarchy, subsequently compromised their allegiance to God, and were ultimately exiled from the land. She presents the multiplicity of voices which the collectors of this material let stand as an essential part of the complex history of their community. Van Wijk-Bos invites readers to enter into the text with questions and to find a way forward to draw closer to the presence of the Most Holy.

Fits really well, not too wide and sleeve length isn’t too short
Size: Medium, Color: Tinted Ice Light Wash
I’m presently surprised at how well this fits. My daughter is about 49” and 43lbs. She’s 8 years old. This jacket fits her well in a size small. It’s not short in the arms (problem I see with Carter’s and Osh gosh at times) and it’s not too baggy or made too wide. It’s slimming and unlike the other review, the material feels very similar to our Osh gosh Jean jacket we got last year. For the price this is a steal. Way better than target’s cat & jack.
