“…It included the superscription in 1.1, the allusions to cultic practices in 1.4-6 that were part of a Josianic reform, the ‘futility curse’ in 1.13b, and the majority of the material in 2.1–3.13. The possibility of an exilic Book of the Four was suggested by Nogalski (1993a), expanded by Schart (1998), and refined by Albertz (2003a). It represents an influential approach to the book of Zephaniah among scholars who see the growth of Zephaniah as part of the growth of the larger corpus of the Book of the Twelve.…”

This article surveys major issues addressed in scholarship on Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah since 2000. Researchers have continued attempts to locate these books more precisely within the historical context of the late seventh century bce. Efforts to trace the literary growth of the books have increased following a decrease in diachronic approaches in the 1990s. Redactional analyses have sought new methodological strategies to supplement the limited historical evidence available for tracking literary growth. Several redactional studies overlap with efforts to describe the editorial history of the Book of the Twelve, although resistance to reading the prophets in this context has also emerged in recent studies. Studies employing literary theory and ideological criticism have sought to balance historically oriented interpretation with attention to more existential concerns. A growing pluralism of methods, aims, and results characterizes the study of the seventh-century prophets in the early twenty-first century.

“…Schart (1998) also allowed that Joel existed prior to its incorporation into the Book of the Twelve, speculating that it was created through ‘literary reformulation of prophetic tradition already fixed in writing’, producing ‘independent, small units’ (p. 278) that were joined by overlaying one image with another (e.g., locusts and army) so as to ‘stimulate the reader’s phantasy’ (p. 278 n. 44). Although he posited that Joel was modified for its current place (p. 279), particularly through the insertion of catchwords to Hosea 14 and Amos 1, he characterized Joel as ‘broadly unified literarily’, with only 4.4-8 unquestionably late, while 1.2-3 and 4.18-21 may exhibit modifications that fit Joel to its context (p. 278 n. 45).…”

“…1.4-16, 17aa, 2.4-12, 3.8a and Amos 5.18-20 (p. 173). While acknowledging that the ‘Day of the Lord ’ in Joel 1.15 and 2.2 betrays literary dependence on Zephaniah, Beck (p. 174) contested Schart’s depiction of the book as constructed as much from Zephaniah as by Isaiah 13 and Jeremiah 4–6 (Schart 1998: 278), with the latter two passages exerting greater influence on the composition of Joel (Beck 2005: 168-73). And whereas Schart considered Joel’s reuse of earlier tradition so piecemeal that ‘the composition little more than disintegrates into relatively independent, small units’ (p. 278), Beck (p. 174) contended that ‘Joel’s foundational composition is to be viewed as learnedly and literarily taking up other texts, but is to be regarded as an independent prophetic writing’.…”

“…Consistent with this, Beck judged connections between Joel and other books alleged by previous scholars to be weak bases for hypothesizing a redactionally elaborated collection. Joel’s silence about the crimes that occasion the Day of the Lord , for instance, does not betray reliance on Hosea’s judgment oracles (Nogalski 1993b: 17-22; Schart 1998: 266-67), but assumes that those targeted by the Day of the Lord are culpable; Joel’s novel accent is the imminence of the Day of the L ord (Beck 2005: 175-76).…”

The Fate of Joel in the Redaction of the Twelve

In the twenty years since James Nogalski introduced the topic (1993a, 1993b) the book of Joel has received renewed redactional analysis, within the context of the discussion of the redaction of the Book of the Twelve. This article provides both a survey of how numerous monographs on the Twelve have portrayed Joel's place within the collection, as well as a critique of the application of redaction criticism to chapters 1-2 of the book. The problems besetting such proposals suggest that the choice of this approach for the study of Joel within the context of the Book of the Twelve constitutes a problem of coordinating analysis with genre, rather than a weakness of the tool itself.

Realigning the Cosmos: The intertextual image of judgment and restoration in Zephaniah

Two extensive intertextual voices in the final-form of Zephaniah consist of Gen 1-11 (in Zeph 1.2-3; 2.11-15; 3.9-10) and Isaiah (in Zeph 2.15; 3.9-10, 14-17). Although often explored independently, these intertextual voices overlap in Zeph 2.11-15 and 3.9-10, constructing a dialogue. This study argues that this intertextual dialogue reorients the surrounding pronouncements of judgment and salvation along cosmic lines. This dialogue reframes the message of Zephaniah within a chiastic structure in which judgment against Jerusalem inaugurates the undoing of creation (A. Zeph 1.2-3). The voices of Isaiah and Gen 1-11 direct this undoing toward the nations, which culminates in the undoing of an archetypal Mesopotamian cultic center (B. Zeph 2.11b-15). Following this, the nations are reoriented around Jerusalem as the new international cultic center (B’. Zeph 3.9-10). This reorientation culminates in Jerusalem’s praise on account of its cosmic restoration (A’. Zeph 3.14-17).
