The Biblical World is a comprehensive guide to the contents,
historical settings, and social context of the Bible. This new
edition is updated with several new chapters as well as a new
section on biblical interpretation. Contributions from leading
scholars in the field present wide-ranging views not just of
biblical materials and their literary and linguistic context, but
also of the social institutions, history and archaeology, and
religious concepts. New chapters cover topics such as the
priesthood and festivals, creation and covenant, ethics, and family
life, while a new section on biblical interpretation discusses
Jewish and Christian bible translation and key thematic emphases,
and modern reader-response and cultural approaches. This revised
edition of The Biblical World offers an up-to-date and thorough
survey of the Bible and its world, and will continue to be an
invaluable resource for students and scholars of the Hebrew Bible
and New Testament and their history and interpretation, as well as
anyone working on the societies, religions, and political and
cultural institutions that created and influenced these texts.
