Brad Kelle discusses his Journal of Biblical Literature article “Is Hosea Also among the Traumatized? The Book of Hosea and Trauma Hermeneutics.” He explores how trauma hermeneutics has evolved, emphasizing the shift from individual to communal trauma interpretations. Kelle highlights the complexity of prophetic literature, the layers of meaning within texts, and the importance of understanding the cultural and historical contexts of these writings. He encourages readers to engage with biblical texts as living documents that can provide insight into personal and communal trauma, while also recommending further reading on the subject. Recommendations in this episode include (friends of the podcast) Alexiana Fry, Sarah Emanuel, and Tod Linafelt as well as Göran Eidevall’s forthcoming Hosea Commentary, Juliana Claassens, Naomi Novick’s Scholomance Series, David Janzen, Jeremiah: Pain and Promise, The Trauma Healing Institute, Bible Through the Lens of Trauma, Holy Resilience: The Bible’s Traumatic Origins, You Are My People: An Introduction to Prophetic Literature, and the television series Andor.
