About the Book

The late Donald H. Juel (1942-2003) devoted his life to engaging scripture faithfully, intelligently, and imaginatively. For Juel, theological interpretation of the Bible meant having an encounter with the living God. This volume identifies and connects many of the overarching themes that animated Juel's work. Including his thoughts on the rhetorical nature of scripture, the challenges facing academic instruction of the Bible, the reader's place in the biblical narrative, and the hope of resurrection, among others, the selections are accessible and engaging and paint a unique portrait of the way Juel thought and lived. Juel seeks to nourish readers in developing richer imaginations about who God is and how Christians meet God through reading the Bible.

Table of Contents:
Passport Introduction; French Language Translations; German Language Translations; Italian Language Translations; Spanish Language Translations; Chef Dining Cards; Additional Gluten and Allergen Free Resources

Review :
"Few persons have taught us [how] to read Scripture as well as Donald Juel. His passion for the text is everywhere apparent as he teaches us to risk seeing the text differently. No one has brought that narrative to life better than this faithful servant. These essays and sermons are a perduring legacy of great value." --Patrick D. Miller, Charles T. Haley Professor of Old Testament Theology Emeritus, Princeton Theological Seminary "This collection shows Juel at his very best. Here you will find a humble and very much real Christian." --Alan F. Segal (1945-2011) was Professor of Religion and Ingeborg Rennert Professor of Jewish Studies, Barnard College "An inspiring read for those whose passion, like Juel's, is for God and for the Bible as God's living, unsettling address." --Janet Soskice, Professor of Philosophical Theology and Fellow of Jesus College, University of Cambridge "Across the years of his much too short career, Juel demonstrated that reading scripture in Christian communities is an endlessly intriguing, bewildering, and nurturing journey. This book will refresh the minds of those who studied alongside him and invite a new generation of interpreters to pack their bags and travel along with him." --Beverly Roberts Gaventa, Helen H.P. Manson Professor of New Testament Literature and Exegesis, Princeton Theological Seminary
