    Still fresh after more than half a century
  

*by V***D on Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2015*

I first read the 1957 edition of this book after it was handed to me by a Presbyterian campus pastor. After reading Anderson's book, the disorganized hodgepodge of biblical passages absorbed from years of Sunday school and vacation Bible school suddenly snapped into place as an organized and coherent whole.  Half a century later (and after reading many biblical theology books), the new edition still seems as fresh, clear, and helpful as my first experience with the book. N. T. Wright would, I think, agree with Anderson about the over-arching biblical narrative.  However, James Kugel ("How to Read the Bible"--an excellent book in my opinion) in an online appendix explicitly disagrees with Anderson's approach.  This probably reflects irreconcilable differences in Jewish and Christian approaches to the Bible.The fourth edition of this book has an updated bibliography (references as late as 2003) although most seem to be 1 to 3 decades older.  The short chapter "Reading the Bible in the Twenty-first Century" is very helpful.This book would be useful to persons new to Christianity, to high-school youth, or to persons from conservative Christian backgrounds who are joining more moderate churches after a long period away from the church.  Persons who subscribe to the Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy will probably be uncomfortable with portions of this book.  The book is written for persons whose educational background ranges from high-school juniors to college graduates.

    Course of UMC Study text
  

*by T***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2017*

This book was part of a course I took and it’s a quality reference. It isn’t meaty by any means (you can read it in a weekend) and heavily focuses on the Old Testament. The author hits a lot of fundamental points and remains objective throughout.I bought this brand new and it was packed in a way that it wasn’t damaged.
