Whether you are studying Old Testament or New Testament or both at once, this little book is your private tutor, your ever-ready guide to over three hundred biblical-studies terms. Here’s your glossary for reading course textbooks, your decoder for listening to lectures, your review sheet for cramming for finals and your “help” key for writing research papers.
Among the more than 300 terms defined you’ll discover:
* types of biblical criticism, from genre criticism to tradition criticism
* Greek and Latin terms, from agrapha to vaticinium ex eventu
* German terms, from Fruhkatholizismus to Wissenschaft
