Others brush aside these chapters due to their violent character. Undaunted, Keith Bodner's After the Invasion: A Reading of Jeremiah 40-44 represents a bold and engaging close reading of this oft-neglected text. Bodner's deeply moving statement bristles with historical insight, theological sensitivity, and literary acuity. After the Invasion will no doubt stimulate new interests and fresh directions in biblical scholarship. * Louis Stulman, Professor of Religious Studies and Chair of the Religious Studies and Philosophy Department, University of Findlay, Ohio * Keith Bodner takes an often ignored text in Jeremiah and reveals it as a fascinating narrative, full of theological meaning as that is uncovered by his detailed and illuminating narrative criticism. Not the least of the interpretive contributions is the authors exploration of the many resonances between these chapters and other texts and other stories, thus uncovering a rich resource for understanding not only Jeremiah but many other biblical texts. * Patrick D. Miller, Professor Emeritus of Old Testament Theology, Princeton Theological Seminary * This book is a good addition to studies in Jeremiah * Gary Hall, Evangelical Theological Society * Keith Bodner takes an often ignored text in Jeremiah and reveals it as a fascinating narrative, full of theological meaning as that is uncovered by his detailed and illuminating narrative criticism. Not the least of the interpretive contributions is the authors exploration of the many resonances between these chapters and other texts and other stories, thus uncovering a rich resource for understanding not only Jeremiah but many other biblical texts.
