*This list is for interpreting the English text, so nothing for biblical languages or systematics (etc.) is on it
**Not everyone will agree with everything written in these recommendations, and that's ok. Advanced interpreters learn from perspectives they don't hold.
***Most of the items on this list can be accessed for free through local library loan systems. No purchases necessary to benefit from the list
In this video I highlight seven types of resources all growing interpreters will want to access and benefit from, and give specific recommendations in each category.
Subscribed. I thought I my "books to buy" list was getting a little short, so thanks for that. I need more bookshelves.
😂 - I'm happy to help!
Hello! Great video! Just subscribed & can't wait for more videos from you! Thank you!
Thanks for the kind words, Dru!
Very helpful!
That's great to hear!
Good video!
Thanks!
Just looking at your channel really looks good.
Thanks!
the background music is unnecessary and distracting.
Yeah, I have to admit I agree. I wish I'd had made the music quieter or just removed it. Lesson learned. Thanks for watching!
Yes. It is just too loud
I think Tremper Longman is politically liberal. Since politics is downstream from theology, I would be skeptical of his theological beliefs.
This post raises an important issue. We definitely all bring our own assumptions and beliefs (our presuppositions and preunderstandings) to the text, and skepticism of someone that doesn't share ours is normal. All of that is ok to acknowledge. A key question is whether it's worth reading someone I know I won't agree with on all issues. For myself the answer is yes, because I learn a lot in the process about what I do believe (and why) and enjoy the challenge of assessing opposing arguments on the basis of their merits, but each reader needs to answer this question for themselves.
