Learning from Bible Interpreters around the World

Biblical scholars from a wide variety of contexts outside the West introduce us to global voices and explore how context impacts our interpretation of the New Testament.

"Kovalishyn takes us around the world in twenty-two chapters by twenty-two Bible interpreters. Familiar texts are discussed from unfamiliar perspectives, yielding new insights and deeper understandings for Western readers. These samples of 'situated exegesis' will be of interest to a broad audience, from pastors to students to scholars of hermeneutics. Highly recommended."
--Karen H. Jobes, Wheaton College (emerita)

"Whether we recognize it or not, we read and interpret the Bible from our own culture, experiences, and personal perspective. These global readings are a gift of learning for those who want to better understand culturally diverse interpretations of the New Testament."
--Nijay K. Gupta, Northern Seminary

"The excellent scholarly essays in this important book demonstrate the significance of contextual scriptural interpretation. Each chapter makes an important contribution, and the book as a whole is part of a seismic shift in the field of New Testament studies. I hope this volume is widely read by scholars and students alike."
--Michael J. Gorman, St. Mary's Seminary & University

"This is a book I've been waiting for. In it, we listen to and learn from scholars across the majority world. The insights are both fresh and compelling. I highly recommend this as a textbook for courses on the Bible."
--Jeannine K. Brown, Bethel Seminary

"Many works have tried to show how crucial it is to read the Bible through the eyes of other cultures, nationalities, and ethnicities besides white American ones, but few have succeeded as well as Kovalishyn and her cadre of authors. Highly recommended!"
--Craig L. Blomberg, Denver Seminary (emeritus)

"This book truly is just as much a reformation as it is a revolution. An invaluable polycentric resource that forms a bridge between the ancient world and our modern global one."
--Allen Yeh, International Theological Seminary
