| Zusammenfassung: | This article offers a cursory overview of the role of cult within the first half (eighth-century block, Hosea-Micah) of the Book of the Twelve, in an attempt to lay a foundation for examining the cult in the book's concluding Persian Period (Haggai-Malachi). This study addresses the idea of restoration, in particular how the prophets' vision of restoration relates to their own understanding of the role of cult. In other words, when the prophets envision a restored Temple (or Zion), what is the role of the cult in that restoration? This study demonstrates that the details of a restored cult prove surprisingly limited, and that this should make readers reconsider how to understand both prophetic critique and prophetic views of repentance and restoration in the Twelve. Such answers may conflict with the concluding books of the Twelve. |
