In this collection of essays, a wide variety of scholars take up Brown's insights, fleshing them out through lucid interpretations of biblical texts, art, and literature. These rich discussions, along with a response and four sermons from Brown himself, render this collection essential reading for biblical and theological scholars as well as for people of faith seeking to hear God's voices in unexpected places.' -- <em>Benjamin Sommer</em>, <em>Professor of Bible at the Jewish Theological Seminary and author of '</em>Revelation and Authority: Sinai in Jewish Scripture and Tradition.'</p><br>
