Dr. Rotokha's fascinating study of post-mortem retribution in the Old Testament and Second Temple Jewish writings is cogent, coherent, and compelling. She presents a balanced and thorough case on an under-researched topic that provides important background for the New Testament. This is a ne example of careful research, deserving of careful reading. Paul Barker, PhD Assistant Bishop, Anglican Diocese of Melbourne Written in a lucid and engaging style, Rotokha's wonderful study demonstrates that there is both continuity and discontinuity as well as significant development in the portrayal of the nature of divine retribution in the texts about the afterlife. This book is a welcome and significant addition to the research and conversation on this important topic. Rebecca G. S. Idestrom, PhD Professor of Old Testament, Tyndale University, Toronto, Canada
