Prinsloo, Gert Thomas Marthinus (University of the Free State, Faculty of Theology, 2021-12-10)Critical spatiality opens avenues to investigate the transforming power of the authors/redactors of the Hebrew Bible’s spatial imagination.

Contextual readings of the Masoretic text and 1QpHab Prinsloo, Gert Thomas Marthinus (OpenJournals Publishing, 2016-11-30)Habakkuk 2:5 is a problematic text.

Prinsloo, Gert Thomas Marthinus (Faculty of Theology, University of Pretoria, 2000)In many ways, the book of Habakkuk is unique in the Book of the Twelve Prophets. One of the reasons is that the Gattungen normally associated with prophetic literature are either absent or occur in unique forms. On the ...

Prinsloo, Gert Thomas Marthinus (Faculty of Theology, University of Pretoria, 1998)Psalm 5 is one of the less known psalms. Yet, it is an extraordinary poem.

Prinsloo, Gert Thomas Marthinus (AOSIS Open Journals, 2013-08-05)Habakkuk 3 is one of the most controversial texts in the Hebrew Bible. Diverging opinions have been expressed on literally every facet of the text. Quite surprising though, interpreters are virtually unanimous in their ...

Prinsloo, Gert Thomas Marthinus (Old Testament Society of South Africa, 2019)Psalms 111 and 112 are “twin” poems displaying similar characteristics such as the superscript הללו יה , an acrostic form, and shared vocabulary. Surprisingly, the shared characteristics are noted, but the poems often ...

Prinsloo, Gert Thomas Marthinus (Old Testament Society of South Africa, 2015)Every human being inevitably experiences illness, loss, failure, and disappointment. When it happens to a perceived-to-be “righteous” person, the problem of theodicy arises, the question whether it is just when deities ...

Prinsloo, Gert Thomas Marthinus (Old Testament Society of South Africa, 2013)Suffering is a universal human experience. It causes an existential crisis and a struggle to construct meaning. When suffering is expressed through the medium of language, it is often done in terms of bodily experience in ...

Prinsloo, Gert Thomas Marthinus (Unisa Press, 2021)This study engages in an ecotheological reading of Habakkuk 2:5–20, a text riddled with text-critical, redaction-critical, and theological problems. I argue that the central theme permeating this text is the condemnation ...
