For students wanting to deepen their understanding of Scripture

Helps you uncover your interpretive lenses for better insights

You will engage more deeply with the Old Testament text

A Handbook to Old Testament Exegesis offers a fresh, hands-on introduction to biblical interpretation.

Designed for both Hebrew and non-Hebrew students, A Handbook to Old Testament Exegesis offers a fresh, hands-on introduction to exegesis of the Old Testament. William P. Brown begins not with the biblical text itself but with the reader, helping students to identify their own interpretive lenses before engaging the biblical text. Brown guides the student through a wide variety of interpretive approaches, including modern methodologies-feminist, womanist, Latino/a, queer, postcolonial, disability, and ecological approaches-alongside more traditional methods. This allows students to critically reflect on themselves as bona fide interpreters. While covering a wide range of biblical passages, Brown also highlights two common biblical texts throughout the work to help show how each interpretive approach highlights different dimensions of the same texts. Students will appreciate the value of an empathetic inquiry of Scripture that is both inclusive of others and textually in-depth.
