Biblical Interpretation: A Roadmap is a guide to discovering and
asking the key questions - about biblical texts, about readers of
the Bible, and about the interaction of the two - that forms the
basis of biblical interpretation today. These questions are
organized around three fundamental assumptions that govern the
authors' approach to reading the Bible: the biblical texts arise
from particular historical, social, and cultural settings: the
reader likewise reads from a specific setting; and neither the
diversity of the texts nor the multitude of readers stands in
isolation one from the other. Tiffany and Ringe here offer an
approach to biblical interpretation that takes both the texts and
the reading context seriously, guiding and encouraging readers to
draw upon the expertise and authority of their own life experiences
and contexts. They also recognize that wide-ranging experiences and
contexts are necessarily involved in biblical interpretation,
showing how critical engagement with those contexts, in all their
historical, social, and cultural diversity, is itself an
unavoidable and invaluable part of the interpretative process.
