Top Highlights

“Yet even this ‘parting of the ways’ between Christianity and Judaism was essentially a dispute between divergent interpretations of a common religious heritage.” (Page 66)

“Narrative criticism focuses on stories in biblical literature and attempts to read these stories with insights drawn from the secular field of modern literary criticism. The goal is to determine the effects that the stories are expected to have on their audience.” (Page 240)

“Behind-the-text approaches address the text as a window through which to access and examine the deposit of ‘meaning.” (Page 10)

“Fundamental to any ‘black’ approach to any biblical text are the notions of liberation, resistance, and survival.” (Page 327)

“In-front-of-the-Text approaches take seriously the question, Who is doing the reading?” (Page 13)

Highly recommended for supplementary reading in New Testament classes. Its general accuracy, moderation, freedom from bias, and concision are welcome.

—Religious Studies Review

Beautifully written and edited, deceptively sophisticated, and uncommonly rich in insights into biblical interpretation.

—Interpretation

Joel B. Green is professor of New Testament interpretation and associate dean for the Center of Advanced Theological Studies at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California.
