- A Scholar Makes a Misstep
Granted, I'm only a seminary student and Dr. Bruggemann is an established scholar -- a scholar's scholar I'm told. But if I can discern a serious misstep it has to be huge by scholarly standards. Instead of offering a complete review, I only wish to make this one point, that he got it wrong when he allowed his anti-supersessionist views to dominate his thinking. At other places, he grudgingly allowed the OT text to have a dual meaning, if Christians "found it convenient" or insisted on these being ... Read More

- Informative, but Not Very Inspired
For a person, like myself, who sees scripture as influenced by equal parts human experience and divine inspiration, Brueggeman's ratio (85% human to 15% divine, by my estimation) will leave something to be desired. His concise chapters on each scripture and his obviously extensive experience make this book a wealth of information and perspective, and my intellectual life is deeper because of it. Though the author clearly does believe in God, his text treats scripture most often from a perspective that ... Read More

- An Excellent Introduction to the Old Testament
This is one of my favorite books on the `Old Testament.' What makes Brueggemann's analysis so compelling is his ability to offer a coherent and comprehensive reading of the Old Testament, while equally dealing with the difficulties, disunities, and flat-out confounding passages that fill the `Old Testament' cannon. Brueggemann does so by looking at, what he refers to as, the `Christian Imagination.'
In short, Brueggemann is not as concerned with how the `history' of the Old Testament does ... Read More

- Bruegge's Amazing Intro toThe Hebrew Bible
Compared to Prof Brueggemann's other Old Testament books, my big surprise is a title of The Old Testament rather than The Hebrew Bible! Added surprise is a sub-title of The Canon and Christian Interpretation. In OT Survey classes he contrasted his approach between Jewish interpretation with Christian inter. So I noted his quotes in using the 4 I's of Interpretation, Ideology, Inspiration, and Imagination! They occur in the Intro and near the end of his chap on Torah. On Page 11 "Now it will occur to an attentive ... Read More

- A good and faithful study
I have been a fan of Walter Brueggemann, professor emeritus of biblical studies from Columbia Theological Seminary, since I encountered him through his text 'Theology of the Old Testament', which formed the basis of a course I took my first year in seminary. Brueggemann has a clear and strong writing style, coupled with definite and innovative ideas about the development of the Hebrew Scriptures as they have come to us.
Brueggemann looks at things from a canonical perspective, ordering the books differently ... Read More
