Review of Elohim within the Psalms by Terrance Wardlaw

Wardlaw, Jr., Terrance R. Elohim within the Psalms: Petitioning the Creator to Order Chaos in Oral-Derived Literature. New York: Bloomsbury, 2015. ISBN: 978-0-56-765656-8. Pp. xv–190.

Wardlaw’s specific contribution to the field is to clarify how the Psalms use the epithet Elohim.
