What Is This Babbler Trying to Say?

This book is a collection of revised and updated essays about the Hebrew Bible written by a North American scholar over a period of several decades. Subdivided into three parts — "Torah," "Prophecy/Apocalyptic," and "Wisdom" — these 17 essays attempt to model for younger scholars and students what the discipline of biblical interpretation can look like, attending carefully to literary, historical, canonical and comparative intertextual methods of investigation.
