{"product_id":"image-the-depths-and-the-susan-gillingham-9781841272979","title":"Image, the Depths and the Surface: Multivalent Approaches to Biblical Study","description":"The purpose of this book is to illustrate that reading is a subjective process which results in multivalent interpretations. This is the case whether one looks at a text in its historical contexts (the diachronic approach) or its literary contexts (the synchronic approach). Three representative texts are chosen from the Law (Genesis 2-3), the Writings (Isaiah 23) and the Prophets (Amos 5), and each is read first by way of historical analysis and then by literary analysis. Each text provides a number of variant interpretations and raises the question--is any one interpretation superior? What criteria do we use to measure this? Or is there value in the complementary nature of many approaches and many results?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susan Gillingham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1841272973\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781841272979\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sheffield Academic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/05\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.06h x 6.86w x 0.70d","brand":"Susan Gillingham","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065844314367,"sku":"9781841272979","price":230.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0359f399-aeeb-4260-86b4-562804dc1e5b.jpg?v=1768677616","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/image-the-depths-and-the-susan-gillingham-9781841272979","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
