The Oxford Handbooks series is a major new initiative in academic publishing. Each volume offers an authoritative and up-to-date survey of original research in a particular subject area. Specially commissioned essays from leading figures in the discipline give critical examinations of the progress and direction of debates. Biblical studies is a highly technical and diverse field. Study of the Bible demands expertise in fields ranging from Archaeology, Egyptology, Assyriology, and Linguistics through textual, historical, and sociological studies to Literary Theory, Feminism, Philosophy, and Theology, to name only some. This authoritative and compelling guide to the discipline will, therefore, be an invaluable reference work for all students and academics who want to explore more fully essential topics in Biblical studies.
The present exhaustive volume offers an up-to-date comprehensive survey of Biblical studies at the beginning of the twenty-first century. * Christoph Stenschke, Dharma Deepika *
This substantial collection of essays provides a good survey to current Biblical Studies... The arrangement of the articles as well as the focus of the volume raises a number of interesting issues for evangelical readers. * Christoph Stenschke, European Journal of Theology *
...this volume succeeds not only its breadth, but also in the high quality of its essays, making this handbook the likely standard for many years to come in the area of biblical studies...Rogerson and Lieu have provided an excellent resource for biblical scholars that constitutes the most up-to-date and comprehensive handbook of its kind. * Michael J. Kruger The Expository Times *
