Reading Scripture as a Political Act

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“With a breadth of scope that is ambitious and fruitful, this volume makes a significant contribution to cross-disciplinary engagement with the political. Seeking to link the rich conversations of political theology and scriptural imagination, Tapie and McClain have gathered essays that display a path forward by attending closely to the history of biblical interpretation as a political act within the church. In these essays, Scripture, theology, and the social body cross-fertilize to produce a multifaceted but cohesive text that will be appreciated by both biblical scholars and theologians alike.”
