A Trusted Guide to the Practice of Biblical Interpretation This guide to the theory and practice of biblical hermeneutics explores a communication model as an effective approach to interpreting the Bible. "Scripture as Communication is the mainstay in my hermeneutics course, second edition adds broader biblical scope and greater attention to both ancient historical context and non-western perspectives. For readers who want to listen to the Bible better, there is no better book to help achieve a more faithful reading." Lynn H. Cohick, Northern Seminary
