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), 410 0$aJournal for the study of the Old Testament.$pSupplement series ;$v188. 606 $aCriticism, Textual 615 0$aCriticism, Textual. 676 $a224.1066 676 $a224/.1066 700 $aO'Connell$b Robert H$0179920 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910814862303321 996 $aConcentricity and continuity$94109773 997 $aUNINA
