Julie Woods introduces students to the books of Jonah, Micah and Nahum in the Old Testament by examining the books' structures and characteristics. She covers the latest Biblical scholarship, including historical and interpretive issues, and focuses in particular on the literary and theological emphases of the texts, while also paying attention to the role and characterization of animals, nature, human civilization, the corruption of leadership, conflict and warfare, and the hope of a world at peace.

With suggestions of further reading at the end of each chapter, this guide is an essential accompaniment to study of the books of Jonah, Micah and Nahum.

In this readable guide Julie Woods not only discusses regular introductory questions about Jonah, Micah and Nahum. She also offers fresh and thought-provoking readings of the biblical text, where she combines a concern for the big picture in each book with an eye for detail, not least in relation to animals.
