Each volume in the Insights series discusses discoveries and
insights gained into biblical texts from a particular approach or
perspective in current scholarship. Accessible and appealing to
today's students, each Insight volume discusses how this method,
approach, or strategy was first developed and how its application
has changed over time; what current questions arise from its use;
what enduring insights it has produced; and what questions remain
for future scholarship.Mitzi J. Smith describes the distinctive
African American experience of Scripture, from slavery to Black
Liberation and beyond, and the unique angles of perception that an
intentional African American interpretation brings to the text for
a contemporary generation of scholars. Smith shows how questions of
race,ethnicity, and the dynamics of "othering" have been developed
in African American biblical scholarship, resulting in new reading
of particular texts. Further, Smith describes challenges that
scholarship raises for the future of biblical interpretation
generally.
