Grasping God's Word: A Hands-on Approach to Reading, Interpreting, and Applying the Bible,

Just as a rock climber's handhold enables him to master the mountain, a firm grasp on God's Word empowers us to traverse the challenging, risky slopes of life. Grasping God's Word helps college students, beginning seminary students, and other serious readers get a grip on the solid rock of Scripture---how to read it, how to interpret it, and how to apply it. Filling the gap between approaches that are too simple and others that are too technical, Grasping God's Word starts by equipping you with general principles of interpretation, then moves on to apply those principles to specific genres and contexts. Features include: Proven in classrooms across the country Hands-on exercises to guide you through the interpretation process Emphasis on real-life application Accompanying workbook (sold separately) This second edition includes an appendix on Inspiration and Canon, updated text, new exercises, and updated bibliographies.
