Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah

"Dr. Gafney uses her wide-ranging exegetical skills to make these biblical texts come alive in a new way. Consequently, the questions addressed in these books resonate with our own questions today, making this work indispensable to those who study, teach, or proclaim a word of hope from these ancient texts."Cheryl B. Anderson, Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary
"This volume belongs on the shelf of anyone who teaches or preaches these texts, for it provides a well-written example of how to read ancient prophets with respect for the past and an eye to the future."Interpretation
"The interaction between historical context and theological reflection supplies one of the many strengths of this volume. Writing during the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement, she reflects on comparable tendencies in these texts (such as Nahum) and in modern North American society to disregard the lives of entire communities. These theological reflections make this volume particularly beneficial for the professors, preachers, and religious practitioners who approach these texts to inform modern theological reflections in conversation with the realities of the marginalized in North American Society and around the world."Catholic Books Review
