Full of strange tales, obscure symbols, and archaic language, the
Bible can be difficult to understand and interpret without some
guidance. In The Trinity Guide to the Bible, Richard Hiers provides
readers with information on the historical contexts and literary
forms of the various books that will make the Bible more
accessible. For each book of the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation,
as well as the books of the Old Testament Apocrypha, Hiers supplies
a summary of the book's basic features, highlights significant
passages, and provides information about each book's likely
historical settings. Rather than emphasizing a modern
interpretation f the texts, Hiers focuses primarily on the beliefs
and concerns inherent in each of the books of the Bible, allowing
readers to draw their own conclusions. Background essays, at the
end of the book, explore the major events and periods of biblical
history, the principal literary and editorial features of biblical
writing, and the central themes of biblical religion and faith.
This important reference book will be a useful tool for readers
encountering the Bible for the firs time, as well as for students
and study groups searching for a deeper background and detail about
the books of the Bible. Richard H. Hiers is Professor of Religion
at the University of Florida, and the author of many books in New
Testament studies and biblical scholarship.
