Acerca de este libro electrónico

Today's theological students, an increasingly diverse population, face the task of reading and interpreting the Bible in multicultural contexts that ask somewhat different questions than in previous generations. They recognize that theology, exegesis, and sociocultural context are all important elements of biblical interpretation. But they are often seeking guidance in negotiating these fields in a constructive manner, especially those with evangelical and Trinitarian convictions and commitments.

Contextual Theological Interpretation by respected teacher and Old Testament scholar Bo Lim provides sustained, thoughtful engagement among the three disciplines of biblical studies, theology, and contextual interpretation. In this big-picture text, Lim argues for the need to bring together the strengths of each of these fields and provides a model for doing so for the sake of effective multicultural ministry. At the same time, he clarifies the field of contextual biblical interpretation, offering evaluation and critique to guide students through the vast diversity of available literature.
