From A minore ad majus to Zion, and from source criticism to deconstruction, this extended glossary clarifies approximately fifty methods of biblical interpretation along with the terminology they employ.

Nothing presently on the market is as comprehensive as Tate's work. Though a handful of textbooks and handbooks serve specific niches, they are usually limited in scope to the New Testament, the Old Testament, or to narrower areas of study. This accessible resource offers ready access to the full spectrum of interpretive method. Now readers no longer need to sift through a complex assortment of books and journals to grasp the terminologies and methodologies so essential for the serious biblical interpreter. This book will appeal to students, pastors, and scholars familiar with some interpretive methods but who need to explore others.
