{"product_id":"joel-and-amos-9780830842728","title":"Joel and Amos","description":"\u003cp\u003eJoel's arresting imagery--blasting trumpet, darkened sun, and marching hosts--has shaped the church's eschatological vision of a day of wrath. Amos's ringing indictments--callous oppression, heartless worship, and self-seeking gain--have periodically awakened the conscience of God's people. Twenty-five-hundred years later, those prophetic words still speak powerfully. This Tyndale commentary by Tchavdar Hadjiev on the books of Joel and Amos examines their literary features, historical context, theology, and ethics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Tyndale Commentaries are designed to help the reader of the Bible understand what the text says and what it means. The \u003ci\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/i\u003e to each book gives a concise but thorough treatment of its authorship, date, original setting, and purpose. Following a structural \u003ci\u003eAnalysis\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eCommentary\u003c\/i\u003e takes the book section by section, drawing out its main themes, and also comments on individual verses and problems of interpretation. \u003ci\u003eAdditional Notes\u003c\/i\u003e provide fuller discussion of particular difficulties.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the new Old Testament volumes, the commentary on each section of the text is structured under three headings: \u003ci\u003eContext\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eComment\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eMeaning\u003c\/i\u003e. The goal is to explain the true meaning of the Bible and make its message plain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTchavdar S.
