    A VERY LOUD QUIET TIME A Review of SONICFLOOd by Stephen J. Bennett SONICFLOOd is a contemporary Christian band which has released one album (self-titled, by Gotee Records in 1999). The band, based in Nashville, is made up of four members: Jeff Deyo, Jason Halbert, Dwayne Laring, and Aaron Blanton.1 Their music is alternative rock with a liberal dose of strings (violins, etc.). The music is definitely guitar-driven and is often more of a “super-sonic deluge” than merely a “sonic flood.” Their album is, however, designed as a praise and worship album with the result of, as one member of the band put it, a very loud quiet time. “Sonicflood” is defined on their website as follows: SONICFLOOd (‘so-nik ‘flud): noun- 1. refers to the cleansing flood that God washes over us as He gets rid of the old in us and creates the new; 2. modern rock praise and worship band on Gotee Records, continuing to remain on the cutting edge of the youth praise and worship movement in the United States.2 The name of the band comes from Revelation 19:6 which refers to the praise of a multitude which sounded “like the roar of rushing waters 1The lineup has changed since their album was recorded (see http://www.sonicflood.com) but the original members were scheduled to release a new album. 2http://www.sonicflood.com/textonly.html#bio 148 Reviews 149 and like loud peals of thunder”3 (NIV).

Anderson “In this profound and engaging volume, one of the keenest theo- logical minds of our time explores the Old Testament foundations of major Christian doctrines with great respect both for Judaism and for the original context of the Scriptures he discusses. The book is a rarity in scholarship and a major achievement from which anyone with an interest in Christian theology or the Old Testament can profit.”—Jon D. Levenson, Harvard University “Readers will delight in tracking Anderson’s march through the Scriptures with high theological concepts in hand. There is a freshness and originality here that few biblical scholars can match.”—Robert Louis Wilken, University of Virginia “Creative, profound, even startling, these studies by Anderson open up fresh vistas for reading the Old Testament through the resources both of Jewish tradition and of historic Christian theology. A game-changing work of scholarship.”—Walter Moberly, Durham University CONTENTS Introduction PART 1: “WHO IS A GOD LIKE YOU?” 1.
