This book introduces the reader to the various perspectives involved in the interpretation of the New Testament from the lexicographical to the feminist approach. Each chapter contains examples of the perspective involved--its presuppositions and method, followed by a caveat. This book promises to be a welcome companion and invaluable source for students of New Testament theology.

Roy A. Harrisville is professor emeritus of Luther Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota. He is the author of many books on the New Testament and theology.
