The Lost World of the Torah: Law as Covenant and Wisdom in Ancient
Context
Our handling of what we call biblical law veers between controversy and neglect. On
the one hand, controversy arises when Old Testament laws seem either odd beyond
comprehension (not eating lobster) or positively reprehensible (executing children). On
the other, neglect results when we consider the law obsolete, no longer carrying any
normative power. Even those who do attempt to make use of the Old Testament
"lawquot often find it either irrelevant, hopelessly laden with "thoshalt
nots,"or simply confusing. Despite these extremes, people continue to propose
moral principles from these laws as "thebiblical view"and to garner proof texts
to resolve issues that arise in society. The result is that both Christians and skeptics
regularly abuse the Torah, and its true message often lies unheard.Walton and Walton
offer in The Lost World of the Torah a restorative vision of the ancient genre of
instruction for wisdom that makes up a significant portion of the Old Testament. In the
ancient Near East, order was achieved through the wisdom of those who governed
society. The objective of torah was to teach the Israelites to be wise about the kind of
order needed to receive the blessings of God's favor and presence within the context of
the covenant. Here listeners will find fresh insight on this fundamental genre of the Old
Testament canon.
