Michael J. Gorman (PhD, Princeton Theological Seminary) is the Raymond E. Brown Chair in Biblical Studies and Theology at St. Mary's Seminary & University in Baltimore, Maryland, where he formerly served as dean of the Ecumenical Institute of Theology. He has authored or edited ten books, including Becoming the Gospel: Paul, Participation, and Mission and Elements of Biblical Exegesis.
"This book is a treasure-house of resources for teachers and students of the Bible, as well as for anyone who wants to become more deeply informed about the collection of texts that are Sacred Scripture for the Christian church. I am not aware of any other book that packs so much valuable information about the Bible into such a concise and readable form. Its essays demonstrate the distinctive, twofold character of fine teaching: they are accessible for serious introductory study while, at the same time, full of mind-expanding perspectives for readers who may have studied the Scriptures for a lifetime."
--Richard B. Hays, Duke Divinity School (emeritus)
"An excellent introduction to the Bible, going well beyond the basic issues of who wrote when, where, and why. The volume is a strong reminder to readers of the extent to which their own reading of and response to the Bible has been shaped by their often very different cultures and traditions. It demonstrates that when the Bible is read in different contexts, it has a richness of relevance that individuals in their own contexts rarely appreciate--revealing what a truly catholic reading actually involves."
--James D. G. Dunn+, Durham University
"This beautifully produced volume merits a place in the library and on the teaching agenda of every church and seminary. All adult students of Scripture, from beginners to the most experienced, could benefit from this multifaceted yet theologically coherent collection of essays, which is both historically grounded and thoroughly contemporary in outlook."
--Ellen F. Davis, Duke Divinity School
"I welcome this unique and much-needed volume. It gathers outstanding, concerned, and passionate authors from many places and from numerous Christian confessions who introduce the text of the Bible, various interpretative traditions, and the Bible's relevance for contemporary Christian life. All of us, from professor to undergraduate student, have much to learn from this book."
--Francis J. Moloney, SDB, Catholic Theological College, University of Divinity, Melbourne, Australia
"This interesting and helpful volume describes not only the contents of the Bible but also the many and various ways that people have interpreted the Bible from antiquity to the present in many different Christian communions. It would be a valuable companion to any introductory course and a helpful guide to any beginning reader."
--George L. Parsenios, Princeton Theological Seminary
