Wisdom in the Hebrew Bible Exploring God’s Twilight Zone

By T. A. Perry “The Bible will speak for our generation if it speaks wisdom: and here is our best guide to learning how it does. Nurtured in mind and heart by wisdom writings that come at the end of the Hebrew Bible, scholar-writer Tony Perry teaches us how to read biblical wisdom at the beginning as well, from Genesis to Kings.”

Modern Judaic Studies, University of Virginia, and Honorary Professor at Australian Catholic University

Jonah’s Arguments with God The Honeymoon Is Over!

By T. A. Perry “The deceptively simple tale of Jonah receives in T. A. Perry’s hands the complex intellectual reading it deserves. With wide learning, urbane wit, and acute sensitivity to detail, Perry asks engaging questions that are spot-on, giving them remarkably reflective answers that sometimes surprise and often convince.”

- Edward L. Greenstein, Meiser Professor of Biblical Studies and Director of the Institute for Jewish Biblical Interpretation at Bar-Ilan University, Israel
