Micah in Ancient Christianity

The book explores the interpretation of Micah's writings by early Christians from the 1st to 5th centuries CE, analyzing patristic commentaries, Gnostic receptions, and Origen's lost commentary. It examines the Septuagint's influence, liturgical uses, and connections to Christ's complaints on Good Friday, alongside rabbinic traditions about Jesus quoting Micah. The study highlights the interplay between Christian and Jewish interpretations, providing valuable insights for Biblical scholars and historians interested in the ancient reception of this Old Testament prophet.
