Primer on Biblical Methods introduces students to the Scriptures, major methods of scriptural interpretation, and key forms of scriptural analysis. Each chapter includes exercises for students to practice a specific method, applying it to both Old and New Testament examples. Chapters may be used in tandem or alone, allowing instructors to choose the material most useful to them.

Adapting and expanding material from her highly successful guide to reading the Old Testament, Encountering Ancient Voices, author Corrine L. Carvalho creates here a highly useful primer on modern methods of biblical interpretation. The author introduces the major methods of scriptural interpretation and then demonstrates each using both Old Testament and New Testament examples. Also included are discussions of some key theological issues, as well as examples of the history of Christian biblical interpretation. Designed for beginners in biblical studies, Primer on Biblical Methods is the perfect introduction to critical methods of biblical interpretation that will make students better readers of the Bible. Says the author, "I have tried to write a guide that both affirms students' desire to learn more and gently challenges them to adopt more complex reading strategies that are better suited for our twenty-first-century world."
