This Cambridge Companion offers an up-to-date and accessible guide
to the fast-changing discipline of biblical studies. Written by
scholars from diverse backgrounds and religious commitments - many
of whom are pioneers in their respective fields - the volume covers
a range of contemporary scholarly methods and interpretive
frameworks. The volume reflects the diversity and globalized
character of biblical interpretation in which neat boundaries
between author-focused, text-focused, and reader-focused approaches
are blurred. The significant space devoted to the reception of the
Bible - in art, literature, liturgy, and religious practice - also
blurs the distinction between professional and popular biblical
interpretation. The volume provides an ideal introduction to the
various ways that scholars are currently interpreting the Bible. It
offers both beginning and advanced students an understanding of the
state of biblical interpretation, and how to explore each topic in
greater depth.
