Interpreting the Old Testament

Description

Every serious student of the Old Testament quickly realizes the inherent difficulty of the interpretive task. The literature of the Old Testament poses unique challenges and requires methodologies different from those used to interpret the New Testament. This textbook has been designed to provide students with a useful methodology for interpreting Old Testament texts. Not simply a book of theory, this work provides practical help to students as they seek to understand and apply the Old Testament. The authors, all leading evangelical scholars, were chosen because of their particular expertise in the various aspects of the interpretive process.
