Jon L. Berquist The Minister's Bookshelf: Preaching the Hebrew Bible Achtemeier, Elizabeth. Preaching from the Old Testament. Louisville, Kentucky: Westminster/John Knox Press, 1989. 187 pages. Brueggemann, Walter. Finally Comes the Poet: Daring Speech for Proclamation. Minneapolis: Fortress Press, 1989. 164 pages. In recent years, many books on preaching have appeared, including technical treatises, anthologies of sermons, exhortatory essays, books on different styles in preaching, tomes on preaching in individual traditions and on specific topics, and discussions of the use of the Bible in preaching. Many of these books are tremendously helpful, but in the midst of the veritable flood of new volumes, one should certainly ask if enough is being said to warrant all these new words. Two contributions to the recent dialogue on preaching were published in late 1989 by well-known writers on the Hebrew Bible and preaching: Elizabeth Achtemeier and Walter Brueggemann. These two books deserve consideration by those who wish to integrate Hebrew Bible texts and ideas more thoroughly into their preaching. Though their general topic is the same, these books approach the issues from very different perspectives. Jon L. Berquist is Associate Dean and Assistant Professor of Old Testament at Phillips Graduate Seminary, Tulsa, Oklahoma. THE MINISTER'S BOOKSHELF 77
