In a world in which genuine forgiveness seems as rare a commodity as ever, this collection of essays offers an opportunity to explore where and in what forms forgiveness may be found in the Hebrew Bible--a text which is foundational for Western religions and the cultures they have influenced over the last two millennia. In the wake of renewed interest in forgiveness in antiquity and recent suggestions that it bears little resemblance to modern conceptions, this book investigates the ways in which the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament itself conceptualizes forgiveness. How and in what ways does God forgive? Where, if at all, do we see reconciliation between people in the Old Testament, and what does it look like?
Industry Reviews
“One hears it said that forgiveness is just a New Testament idea: the Old Testament God is too wrathful to forgive people and the Israelites are too vengeful to forgive anyone! How excellent it therefore is to have this study of key passages in the Old Testament that talk about God's forgiveness and about people forgiving each other (without oversimplifying what the Old Testament does have to say).”
—John Goldingay, Fuller Theological Seminary

“Despite its theological import, the concept of forgiveness has often been neglected in academic writing. This well-rounded and tightly edited volume rectifies this omission and sheds new and significant light on the topic. I can highly recommend it.”
—Lena-Sofia Tiemeyer, Örebro School of Theology

“In Remember Their Sin No More?, readers have the opportunity to grapple with some of the key biblical texts related to the theme of forgiveness. Guided by a group of renowned scholars, readers do not find here simplistic answers but helpful guidance for navigating both divine and human dimensions of forgiveness in Scripture. A must-read for those interested in the conception and practice of this important theme.”
—Mark J. Boda, McMaster Divinity College

“This volume, with its host of insightful contributors, initiates an overdue discussion of an issue crucial for our contemporary world. In doing so, it participates in work which bolsters the case for clear continuity between the Christian Testaments. For these reasons, among others, it is a worthwhile read.”
—Brittany N. Melton, Palm Beach Atlantic University
