Searching for Meaning (eBook, ePUB)

An Introduction To Interpreting The New Testament

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Searching for Meaning introduces readers to the different methods used to interpret the New Testament. Top scholars give a short definition of a particular criticism and then Paula Gooder gives a practical example to demonstrate how that criticism can be applied to a biblical text. A very broad range of methods are introduced, from traditional criticisms such as source criticism and historical criticism to the more modern methods such as feminist criticism and liberation criticism. Readers will understand how different meanings and emphases can be drawn out from a text depending upon the method of interpretation chosen. They will also be given the skills to start analysing and examining texts for themselves in a meaningful and insightful way.
