The third section looks at elements of prophecy within the traditional wisdom books such as Job, Proverbs and Qoheleth. Finally, the book continues the conversation by providing two concluding chapters that evaluate, critique, engage, and raise new questions that Hebrew Bible scholars will need to wrestle with as the search for the relationship between wisdom and prophecy moves forward.

The volume’s tight editing, however, and use of review articles makes it a fine example of how collected volumes should work… The editors have done a remarkable job of curating a rich conversation, which will provoke many others.»
Catholic Biblical Quarterly
