Product Description

Few books on Bible study method both explain how and show how. Fewer still seek to do this by utilizing current biblical scholarship while writing for informed lay people. Virtually no books with the objective demonstrate a competent grasp of both the linguistic and historical school of biblical interpretation. From Word to Life fills the gap with this distinctive contribution. Written clearly, it should enjoy wide usage, especially in the classroom setting. The book is not written for the beginner in Bible study; its best use will be by those who, having already started on the pilgrimage of Bible study, are at least minimally acquainted with the historical-critical method and have thought some about how language works. Because of its clarity and scope, it will reward both the serious student and the seasoned professor of biblical studies. --Willard M. Swartley The inductive Bible study method presented in this book is motivated by three objectives. The first is to show the reasonableness of the way biblical scholars work with the Bible. . . . A second motive is to present these methods or ways of study in such a manner that others can also appropriate them for their own use. . . . Third, and perhaps most importantly, it is hoped that through an acquaintance with good Bible study methodology, discernment may be gained as to what constitutes valid and invalid uses and interpretations of Scripture. --Perry Yoder, in the Preface
