The Law, The Prophets, and The Writings: Studies in Evangelical Old Testament Hermeneutics in Honor of Duane A. Garrett

The Old Testament is no ordinary text; it is a revelation of God’s will, character, purpose, and plan, inspired by the Spirit of God. That same Spirit continues to work within God’s people today as they read the Bible, even when the meaning is difficult to discern. In The Law, the Prophets, and the Writings, eighteen evangelical scholars analyze the Old Testament through a historical, literary, and theological hermeneutic, providing new insights into the meaning of the Scriptures. This festschrift in honor of Duane A. Garrett seeks to help Christians faithfully read and understand the Old Testament Scriptures.

“This volume not only gives honor to whom honor is due (Duane A. Garrett), but it also gives honor to God’s Word. In light of the loss in the church (‘the inability to speak OT’), this work represents a gain. The introduction alone is worth its weight in gold. Key OT topics that are continually under fire are addressed, not skirted, modeling sound hermeneutical principles.” Donna Petter, associate professor of Old Testament and director, Hebrew Language Program, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary
