When did you last preach on Lamentations? This book might, just might, inspire you to do so.
It is the tenth in the New Studies in Biblical Theology series, and aims to bring biblical theology (of the Moore College, Sydney variety) to bear on five of the most neglected books of the Bible, in order to reveal their relevance to the Christian believer and Church. Barry Webb is known to us especially for his excellent edition on Isaiah in the Bible Speaks Today series; he is Head of Old Testament at Moore College. In this book he deals with The Song of Songs, Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes and Esther.
