No single approach to reading the Bible can do justice to its
complex history and content. There are as many different ways of
understanding Scripture as there were people involved in its
composition. Advocating a pluralistic reading that acknowledges the
many voices speaking in the Bible, Susan Gillingham offers
theological, historical, and literary insights into the compilation
of Scripture and the development of biblical studies. Providing one
of the most accessible and helpful introductions to the Bible
available, this volume clearly outlines the main issues in
understanding Scripture and demonstrates, using Psalm 8 as an
example, the best method for reading the Bible today. "Not just
another ephemeral book on postmodern theory. It is both a survey
and an argument: she contends that the Bible itself is a complex
book that can best be understood by the plurality of methods that
are actually being used to read it. In engaging and practical terms
she discusses historical, literary, and theological approaches to
the Bible.... This is one of the first and best introductions to
biblical interpretation that treats the postmodern situation of
biblical studies seriously and constructively. It will make an
excellent textbook in courses on exegesis and interpretation and
for use in ecclesiastical study groups." - Religious Studies Review
