“Both enlightening and inspiring . . . a helpful resource for both Jews and Christians, conservatives and liberals, religious leaders and social reformers.” —Peter J. Paris, the Elmer G. Homrighausen Professor of Christian Social Ethics, emeritus, Princeton Theological Seminary

In The Meaning of the Bible: What the Jewish Scriptures and Christian Old Testament Can Teach Us, preeminent biblical scholars Douglas A. Knight and Amy-Jill Levine deliver a broad and engaging introduction to the Old Testament—also known as the Tanakh or Hebrew Bible—offering a wealth of compelling historical background and context for the sacred literature that is at the heart of Judaism and Christianity. John Shelby Spong, author of Why Christianity Must Change or Die writes, “Levine and Knight have combined to write a book on the Bible that is as academically brilliant as it is marvelously entertaining. By placing our scriptures into their original Jewish context they have opened up startling and profound new insights. This is a terrific book.”

“A winsome, accessible introduction to the theological thought of the Hebrew Bible. This sort of irenic, thoughtful linkage of criticism and interpretation within a confessing tradition is exactly what we most need in Scripture reading.” —Walter Brueggemann, Professor Emeritus, Columbia Theological Seminary

“From its superb introduction to its perfectly worded conclusion, this book does it all. Whether your interest in the Bible is historical or literary, specific texts or broad themes, this book has it—and conveys its relevance for today.” —Richard Elliott Friedman, author of Commentary on the Torah

“More than random facts about the Hebrew Bible . . . more than a historical overview . . . they are aiming for true understanding of the life, culture, and practices of the ancient Israelites.” —Booklist
