Jason Gile, "Ezekiel and the World of Deuteronomy" (Bloomsbury, 2021)

Summary

Did the ideas of Deuteronomy influence the prophecies of Ezekiel? Jason Gile says Yes. His recent monograph argues that Deuteronomy's ideas influenced Ezekiel's response to the crisis surrounding the fall of Jerusalem and the Babylonian exile in significant ways, shaping how he saw Israel's past history of rebellion against Yahweh, present situation of divine judgment, and future hope of restoration.

Tune in as we speak with Jason Gile about his recent book, Ezekiel and the World of Deuteronomy (Bloomsbury, 2021).

Jason Gile serves as Dean of Program Development and Innovation, as well as Affiliate Professor of Old Testament at Northern Seminary in Illinois.
