Its thesis is twofold. First, the book of Isaiah best manifests its structural unity, thematic choherence and rhetorical emphasis when read as an exemplar of prophetic covenant disputation. Second, the principal arrangement of the book comprises seven asymmetrical concentric sections, each made up of complex (triadic and quadratic) framing patterns. They are: an exordium (1.1, 2-5), two threats of judgment (2.6-21; 3.1-4.1), two programmes for the punishment and restoration of Zion and the nations (4.2-11.16; 13.1-39.8),Journal for the study of the Old Testament.Supplement series ;188.Criticism, TextualCriticism, Textual.224.1066224/.1066O'Connell Robert H179920MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782241503321Concentricity and continuity3757452UNINA
