Excerpt from Richard Middleton: The Man and His Work A brief Preface is needed to acknowledge indebtedness to three of my friends - Herbert Garland, Louis J. Mcquilland and Arthur Machen - all of Whom knew Middleton in the flesh, and who have been good enough to advise me in the preparation of this memoir. Mcquilland, who read the memoir in proof, tells me I should have dealt more fully with Middleton as a writer of fiction. I have to some small extent remedied the deficiency by making additions to the biblio graphical notes. Much with me, in writing the book, was the desire to make more widely known Middleton's excellence as a poet. His prose fantasy, The Ghost Ship, is now generally acknow ledged to be one of the best short stories in the English language, but it seems to me that he is too much considered as the author of that story and at the expense of his poetry. I hope I have done a little towards arousing a wider interest in Poems and Songs, though very conscious that the expression has fallen short of the dream.

It is traditional to think we should praise Abraham for his willingness to sacrifice his son as proof of his love for God. But have we misread the point of the story? Is it possible that a careful reading of Genesis 22 could reveal that God was not pleased with Abraham's silent obedience? Widely respected biblical theologian, creative thinker, and public speaker J. Richard Middleton suggests we have misread and misapplied the story of the binding of Isaac and shows that God desires something other than silent obedience in difficult times. Middleton focuses on the ethical and theological problem of Abraham's silence and explores the rich biblical tradition of vigorous prayer, including the lament psalms, as a resource for faith. Middleton also examines the book of Job in terms of God validating Job's lament as "right speech," showing how the vocal Job provides an alternative to the silent Abraham. This book provides a fresh interpretation of Genesis 22 and reinforces the church's resurgent interest in lament as an appropriate response to God.
