In this volume, Douglas Yoder uses the tools of modern and
postmodern philosophy and biblical criticism to elucidate the
epistemology of the Tanakh, the collection of writings that
comprise the Hebrew Bible. Despite the conceptual sophistication of
the Tanakh, its epistemology has been overlooked in both religious
and secular hermeneutics. The concept of revelation, the genre of
apocalypse, and critiques of ideology and theory are all found
within or derive from epistemic texts of the Tanakh. Yoder examines
how philosophers such as Spinoza, Hume, and Kant interacted with
such matters. He also explores how the motifs of writing, reading,
interpretation, image, and animals, topics that figure prominently
in the work of Derrida, Foucault, and Nietzsche, appear also in the
Tanakh. An understanding of Tanakh epistemology, he concludes, can
lead to new appraisals of religious and secular life throughout the
modern world.
