A Little Book for New Bible Scholars

Many young Bible scholars are passionate about the Scriptures. But is passion enough?

In A Little Book for New Bible Scholars, Randolph Richards, and Joseph Dodson encourage young students of the Bible to add substance to their zeal--the kind of substance that comes from the sweat and toil of hard study.

Just as we should avoid knowledge without love, they write, we should also avoid love without knowledge.

Aimed at beginners, this concise overview offers a wealth of good advice, warns of potential pitfalls, and includes wisdom from a variety of other biblical scholars as well as stories from the author's own long experience in the guild.

Full of warmth, humor, and an infectious love for Scripture, this book invites a new generation of young scholars to roll up their sleeves and dig into the complex, captivating world of the Bible.
