Description

For years, Douglas Stuart's Old Testament Exegesis has been one of the most popular ways to learn how to perform exegesis-the science and art of interpreting biblical texts properly for understanding as well as proclamation. This new edition includes a major revision and updates past editions by including a helpful configuration of the format for the exegesis process. Stuart provides guidance for full exegesis as well as for a quicker approach specifically tailored to the task of preaching.

Walks you step by step through how to do exegesis on Old Testament passages. Includes a bibliography of many of the most useful reference works for each task. I used as one of my main guides for doing my exegesis paper in Hebrew IV.
