| description | <p style="text-align:justify;"> This book is the culmination of a decade’s worth of thinking and writing about 4 Ezra by Hindy Najman. A major strength of this book is that it looks beyond biblical scholarship for analogies and tools for analyzing 4 Ezra. For example, Jonathan Lear’s book Radical Hope, about the way that writing helped preserve the memory of Crow Indian culture after their exile from their ancestral lands, serves as a touchstone for Najman’s discussion of 4 Ezra’s strategy for helping the Jewish people survive the destruction of the Second Temple by encouraging its readers to focus on scripture rather than rebuilding the temple. </p> |
