A collection of essays exemplifying new directions in biblical
scholarship being taken by biblical scholars who use new literary,
historical and sociological critical tools in exploring issues of
concern to their communities, and pose a challenge to others in the
discipline to broaden the canons of interpretation and sources.
These essays, which are from the generation of scholars who follow
the writers of the historic "Stony the Road We Trod: African
American Biblical Interpretation (Fortress, 1991), address issues
of cultural criticism, utilization of Black religious sources such
as the Negro spirituals and sermons, histories of struggles of
Afro-diasporan peoples, and ideological criticism in interpreting
the biblical text.
