Devotions on the Hebrew Bible: 54 Reflections to Inspire and Instruct

Fifty-four short devotions based on passages from the Hebrew Bible--written by some of the top biblical language scholars of today.

The main point of each meditation in Devotions on the Hebrew Bible comes from a careful reading of the passage in the Hebrew Bible, not from an English translation. The authors use a variety of exegetical approaches in their devotions: grammatical, lexical, rhetorical, sociohistorical, linguistic, etc. Some insights focus on particular words and their role in the passage, while others highlight background studies or provide a theological reading of the passage.

Each devotion draws students into translating a short passage and pursuing an understanding of why this or that insight matters for their lives and ministries. Devotions on the Hebrew Bible encourages professors, students, and pastors alike to keep reading and meditating on the Hebrew Scriptures and find new treasures from the biblical text.

Celebrated contributors include:

• Daniel I. Block
• Mark J. Boda
• Hélène Dallaire
• Nancy Erickson
• Michael Williams

Devotions on the Hebrew Bible contains a devotion on every book in the Old Testament and can be used as a weekly devotional or as a supplemental resource throughout a semester or sequence of courses.
