Bloomsbury, 2015. Hardbound. New Book. Hardbound. Taking mosaic as a guiding metaphor, Rees reads a passage of scripture using a variety of methods that are now commonly used in biblical studies to demonstrate that each method can make a contribution to an understanding of the text in view. After a translation of Numbers 25, his topics include reading other readings, a historically oriented reading, narrative explorations, a feminist reading, and a postcolonial reading. The study began as his PhD dissertation at the Charles Sturt University in Australia. (2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR).

Guided by the metaphor of the art form known as a mosaic, this book advocates a pluralistic approach to biblical studies. Rees argues that the text itself can be described as a 'mosaic', with each new reading adding to the mosaic. Interpretation is therefore both observation and invention, or contribution.When [re]reading the text, one cannot but be aware of what has been seen before, even if it at first may seem unfamiliar. He thus rejects the idea of a definitive reading.... Guided by the metaphor of the art form known as a mosaic, this book advocates a pluralistic approach to biblical studies. Rees argues that the text itself can be described as a 'mosaic', with each new reading adding to the mosaic. Interpretation is therefore both observation and invention, or contribution.When [re]reading the text, one cannot but be aware of what has been seen before, even if it at first may seem unfamiliar. He thus rejects the idea of a definitive reading.Examining Numbers 25, Rees argues that the various methods employed to interpret this text (narrative, feminist, postcolonial as well as a more 'traditional' historical-critical reading) enable us to see different things as we read from different places. A further analysis of the book's interpretative history, including the rewritten histories of Josephus and Philo, allows us to discover that creativity has forever been a part of the reading process. Moving on to explore the contributions of more recent commentators, Rees concludes that an embrace of diversity, of collegiality, may well point to a new future in Biblical Studies.Taal: Engels;Afmetingen: 13x234x156 mm;Gewicht: 459,00 gram;Verschijningsdatum: januari 2015;Druk: 1;ISBN10: 0567554368;ISBN13: 9780567554369; Engelstalig | Hardcover | 2015.
