"Interpreting Scripture brings together N. T. Wright's most important articles on Scripture and hermeneutics over the last two decades. Many of the included studies have never been published or only available in hard-to-find larger volumes and journals. Here is a rich feast for all serious students of the Bible. Each essay will amply reward those looking for detailed, incisive, and exquisitely nuanced exegesis, resulting in a clearer, deeper, and more informed appreciation of Scripture and its application to Christian life and thought today"--Amazon
