A New Song

The fresh riches of biblical poetry for communities of faith


A New Song brings together a diverse roster of Jewish and Christian scholars to explore biblical Hebrew poetic texts within the context--and for the benefit--of communities of faith. Edited by Stephen D. Campbell, Richard G. Rohlfing Jr., and Richard S. Briggs, A New Song includes nine essays on the hidden intricacies of poetry in the Hebrew Bible, ten original poems in dialogue with biblical poetry, and three reflective responses. These thoughtful essays and poems encourage readers to join in the singing of the old songs anew.
