Scripture - History and Interpretation

Author Dianne Bergant

Enter the world of the text and explore some of the age-old questions that arise in every generation:

What does it mean to say that the Word of God is both divine and human?
Why is biblical history so important to the study of scripture and theology?
Why are there different literary forms in the bible? Why the competing voices and apparent contradictions? 

In a clear and compelling style, Bergant explores the answers to these and other questions. She surveys the world of the bible and biblical scholarship in an introduction that is sure to spark enthusiasm and further interest.
