From the Publisher

"A practical approach to Bible study in an easy-to-understand style." -Bookstore Journal

What makes this book different from other "understanding the Bible" books?

  1. A strong focus on the vital differences in genres within the Bible and how to read and understand each genre differently.
  2. Not just guidelines for studying the Bible, but practices to help you appreciate simply reading the Bible.
  3. The authors, Gordon D. Fee and Douglas Stuart, are two experienced seminary professors who strongly believe in understanding, obeying, and applying biblical text as carefully as possible.
  4. Attention is given to both exegesis and hermeneutics to help you understand the original textual meaning and also what it means for us today. You will be given practical guidelines for learning to ask the right questions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential Reading to Better Comprehend the Bible

An acquaintance told me that one of his dear professors had recently passed away, so I sent him my condolences. He replied to me and told me a few details about Dr. Gordon D. Fee. I was impressed, so I decided to read one of his books.
I like this book because Dr. Douglas Stuart and Dr. Gordon Fee have compiled their expertise and experience to give the open-minded reader an in-depth perspective of the Bible which the general public is oblivious or blinded to by bias or prejudice.

Everyone who wants to better understand the Bible should consider taking a look at this book: How to Read the Bible for All It’s Worth. It will cause us to become aware of things that are there all the time, but we didn’t realize it.

I gave this book a five star rating because I learned some things about middle-eastern culture, history and literature which I had not realized before from my previous experience and education.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent principles for applied Bible reading
Reviewed in the Netherlands on 8 October 2018
Verified Purchase
Good thing in this book is its consistency in going through text and context for the main types of Books in the Bible.
It is well categorised and so applicable to almost every Bible book you read.
It helps to prevent mistakes in interpretation by emphasising different themes of exegesis in different books, with very clear examples from the Bible

Useful for Bible teachers and pastors teaching young Christians to read the Bible thoughtfully and with the heart without making crucial mistakes in application.

This book is not meant for advanced students of the Bible of course, unless they would want to teach explanatory Bible reading and how to apply what you read.
