During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Several times in the Hebrew Bible, especially in the latter Prophets, we find a God’s “lawsuit” against his unfaithful people (depicted as an adulterous wife or a rebellious son). Psalm 44 and the book of Job are two of the few examples of Israel’s “lawsuit” against God, with the same structure of the original model. In these two examples, Israel puts God on trial, showing a unique relationship with his God, with no parallel in the Ancient World. This session will discuss the stages of Israel’s lawsuit in Psalm 44 with its parallel passages in the book of Job.
