His work is of real significance given his rare command of the particular interpretive methods that he employs and his remarkable mindfulness of the holistic shape of Scripture. He demonstrates how the Scriptures carefully shape the citylaments that they take up placing them in service of prophetic themes and structures that stretch across the entirety of Isaiahs book. Hesketts study illuminates for the first time how the ancient citylament genre does not operate with free unrestrained agency within the Scriptures but only as critically appropriated. This work makes an enduring contribution with insights readers will want to access again and again. Dr. Stephen L. Cook Catherine N. McBurney Professor of Old Testament Language and Literature Virginia Theological Seminary/Hesketts book expands the study of city laments in Isaiah in several directions masterfully demonstrating how they operated in their original oral contexts and how they developed into other written genres in the Scripturalization editing of the book of Isaiah transformed in order to speak the concept of forgiveness and celebrate the restoration promised by God. But even more he addresses the disjuncture between biblical scholarship and theology by showing how the transformed city laments in Isaiah cannot be read apart from the canonical context of Torah and Prophets and for Jews and Christians today can be read in the context of the Holocaust and the Passion of Christ.
