  participles are nouns:  e.g. hu yoshev  -- he is (in a state of) sitting.

To be sure, participles sometimes function as nouns- but in this case it is 
a "hendiadys" with the noun preceding it.

This book was reviewed in RBL:
http://www.bookreviews.org/bookdetail.asp?TitleId=2170&CodePage=2170

and the review concludes;

 >> This analysis moves well beyond a simplistic discussion of form and 
content. Marcus
has written a book that is refreshingly rich in allusion and imagery that 
combine to
elucidate the meaning of four anti-prophetic satires of the Hebrew Bible. <<
