Two specific strengths merit mentioning for their acute insights. First, his essay on prostitution and vows paints a helpful portrait of Israelite women who engaged in religious activities (e.g., vows). Second, for those unaware of the larger realm of divinity in the ANE, the essays in part 3 will be edifying. From the outset, van der Toorn explains that he is not providing any substantive revision to previously published essays. Although his rationale is reasonable and typically standard for a collection of essays, several essays could have been revised to provide an up-to-date treatment of the subject matter. One example will suffice. In chapter 1, van der Toorn provides a wonderful summary and analysis of the scholarly development of the Israelite religion. The original essay was published in 2002. Several significant developments have occurred in the field of study since the publication of the original essay, and van der Toorn could have chosen to provide readers with an excellent updated summary of the field from 1870 to 2018. While working through the immense depth of many essays, readers may grow frustrated with the poor editing of the book. Throughout the monograph are several misspelled words and typos (e.g., on pp. 45, 52, 71, 110, 158, 161, and 245). Spelling and typos aside, Mohr Seibeck and van der Toorn should be applauded for collecting, arranging, and publishing these essays into one volume. Scholars interested in the religion of the ANE, scribes and scribal traditions, and deities and demons will return to the riches of this volume several times over.","PeriodicalId":21049,"journal":{"name":"Review & Expositor","volume":"119 1","pages":"461 - 463"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42364385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this Elisha narrative, the army of Ben-hadad, the Aramean king, besieges the capital of Samaria. While ancient cities had walls to protect people, the same walls could also be death-dealing places as residents were trapped inside. The story illustrates how truly desperate circumstances came to the point that those trapped inside had to resort to cannibalism to survive. The king, also confined within the city wall, passes a death sentence on Elisha but the prophet predicts a happy ending. The crisis is resolved through divine intervention that essentially dismantles the death-delivering wall of the Aramean army. The dismantling of this military border leads to the liberation of the people, the provision of sustenance, and the maintenance of life. The article examines the historical context of the text, the meaning of borders and boundaries in antiquity, the drama of the text, the resolution of the crisis, and implications for today’s marginalized communities within various borders.","PeriodicalId":21049,"journal":{"name":"Review & Expositor","volume":"119 1","pages":"398 - 406"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47236957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I am struck by the importance of respect in the lives of those who are incarcerated. Respect, both personal and systemic, is essential for facilitating healthy relationships and spiritual development among prisoners. When respect is lacking, prisoners are subjected to dehumanizing conditions, physical and mental health problems, and an ongoing environment of violence. Staff members also experience the negative effects of a disrespectful environment, leading to job dissatisfaction and burnout. Our communities’ responses to crime often focus on humiliation, isolation, and punishment, which perpetuates desperate coping mechanisms such as substance abuse, poverty, and violence. This approach only serves to further dehumanize people who are incarcerated. Providing opportunities for prisoners to form healthy relationships while in custody is essential for their rehabilitation and reentry into society. It also allows local faith communities to practice their faith principles of mercy, forgiveness, and compassion by reaching out to those people who are often forgotten and marginalized.","PeriodicalId":21049,"journal":{"name":"Review & Expositor","volume":"119 1","pages":"329 - 341"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44864542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This edition, however, presents the theory that the name Eleazar represented an idealized priest (the son of Aaron) based on the association with Joshua and the conquest of the land (Josh 14:1). In this interpretation, the Bar Kokhba coins with Eleazar’s name envisioned a hope of repeating Israel’s glorious past by reconquering the land from the Romans (p. 330). Third, more Ptolemaic and Seleucid coin examples have been added along with the new numismatic material on the Kingdom of Adiabene, the Ituraean Kingdom, and the Roman governors of Syria. Fourth, this edition demonstrates better copyediting, allowing for a more readable text by creating succinct sentences, eliminating contractions, and in some sections, rearranging and organizing material into a more logical flow. While positive improvements in this edition are many, a few issues might be considered in additional revisions. Some sections, such as “New Testament Coins” (chap. 12), seem underwhelming. For example, only one page is given to “The Seven Churches of Asia Minor.” As the pages of this journal have noted in the past, Revelation lends itself well to a numismatic interpretation (see David M. May, “Counting Kings [Revelation 17:10]: A Novel Approach from Roman Imperial Coinage,” Rev&Exp 114.2 [2017]: 239–46). While this work will be of great interest and help to those who study biblical coins and are attempting to identify coin types, it can also be very beneficial for biblical scholars, ministers, and interested lay persons. It presents a different and fruitful angle by which to enter the biblical text and the biblical world of the text. Coins were perhaps the most ubiquitous method by which messages were disseminated in the ancient world. The study of the material culture represented by coins provides a more textured, nuanced, and complete sense of the biblical world. An abundance of numismatic information is contained within the Guide to Biblical Coins, and this wealth of knowledge can provide one more tool for a biblical interpreter.","PeriodicalId":21049,"journal":{"name":"Review & Expositor","volume":"119 1","pages":"452 - 453"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47376602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
