Synopsis

For years, Douglas Stuart's Old Testament Exegesis has been one of the most popular ways to learn how to perform exegesis—the science and art of interpreting biblical texts properly for understanding as well as proclamation. This new edition includes a major revision and updates past editions by including a helpful configuration of the format for the exegesis process. Stuart provides guidance for full exegesis as well as for a quicker approach specifically tailored to the task of preaching. A glossary of terms explains the sometimes-bewildering language of biblical scholarship, and a list of frequent errors guides the student in avoiding common mistakes. No exegetical guide for the Old Testament has been more widely used in training ministers and students to be faithful, careful interpreters of Scripture.

Goodreads review by Jake on August 12, 2009

This is a great resource for grammatical-historical exegesis. The method is systematic and well explained. It is also given in two forms: for full exegesis and for expository preaching. The only downfall is that exegesis is presented as a scientific pursuit at the expense of the spiritual and theolo......more

An excellent treatment of the specific issues (e.g., issues beyond the scope of a general textbook because they require the use of Hebrew) involved in interpreting texts in the Hebrew Bible. If you do not know Hebrew yet, or will not conduct exegesis any time soon, at least get this book because of......more
