Within this broader, primary metaphor, the complex metaphor YHWH IS THE VINTNER OF ISRAEL is also analyzed as an image predominant in the pre-exilic prophetic literature. Recent advances in cognitive linguistics, coupled with traditional historical-critical methods, as well as a survey of the material culture, work in tandem to illuminate one snapshot of ancient Israel?s conception of the divine. 410 0$aBiblical Interpretation Series$v155. 606 $aMetaphor in the Bible 606 $aAgriculture in the Bible 615 0$aMetaphor in the Bible. 615 0$aAgriculture in the Bible. 676 $a221.6/4 700 $aPantoja$b Jennifer Metten$01686741 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822752803321 996 $aThe metaphor of the Divine as Planter of the people$94059744 997 $aUNINA
