About this book
—from the foreword by Michael J. Gorman
Praise for this book
Yoder's biblical exposition, perhaps more than his work in either ethics or history, inspired a whole generation to re-engage 'Word and World.' I, like so many others, am grateful and indebted. This volume gives us unique insights into Yoder's integral approach to reading scripture, which remains instructive, compelling and fruitful.
Ched Myers, Bartimaeus Cooperative Ministries and author of Binding the Strong Man: A Political Reading of Mark's Story of Jesus
For anyone interested in theological interpretation of Scripture, this book is a welcome event. This updated version of To Hear the Word brings together a compelling collection of John Howard Yoder's many writings on biblical interpretation and theology. Those engaged in current discussions about how to interpret and embody Scripture in the church will find that on many of the most pressing issues in the current debates, Yoder has already engaged the issues in provocative and challenging ways. It only sharpens our sorrow that his voice has been lost.
Stephen E. Fowl author of Theological Interpretation of Scripture (Cascade 2009)
