The Indispensable Guide to the Old Testament

By Angela Bauer-levesque

Book Overview

The Indispensable Guide series offers tightly focused, relatively brief, accessible, and practical books for students in seminary, alternate paths to ministry groups, and lay ministry programs. Each book introduces core concepts, provides ample illustrations, and includes a helpful resource list. This introductory text exposes students to the basic principles of biblical interpretation and provides a survey of the texts and contexts of the Old Testament for mainline Protestants interested in progressive theological views. Bauer-Levesque provides this introduction to reading Scripture in a historically critical fashion with sensitivities to race, class, and gender issues. Book jacket.
