This concise commentary, excerpted from the Fortress Commentary on
the Bible: The Old Testament and Apocrypha, engages readers in the
work of biblical interpretation. Contributors connect
historical-critical analysis with sensitivity to current
theological, cultural, and interpretive issues. introductory
articles describe the challenges of reading the Old Testament in
ancient and contemporary contexts, relating the biblical theme of
the people of God" to our complex, multicultural world, and reading
the Old Testament as Christian Scripture, followed by a survey of
"Introduction to Wisdom and Worship: Themes and Perspectives in the
Poetic Writings." Each chapter (Job through Song of Songs) includes
an introduction and commentary on the text through the lenses of
three critical questions: The Text in Its Ancient Context; The Text
in the Interpretive Tradition; The Text in Contemporary Discussion.
Wisdom, Worship, and Poetry introduces fresh perspectives and draws
students, as well as preachers and interested readers, into the
challenging work of interpretation.
