Reviews
“This study Bible is a treasure. . . . When students, parishioners, colleagues, and friends seek a recommendation, this is the Bible to which I will refer them.” –Brian K. Blount, President Emeritus, Union Presbyterian Seminary “Its clarity and depth facilitate meaningful engagement with the biblical text. . . . An excellent companion for personal study and devotional life.” –Bishop Vashti Murphy McKenzie, President and General Secretary, National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA (NCC) “The Westminster Study Bibleis state of the art. Beautifully accessible, with the highest level of biblical scholarship and precision, and with contextual and theological sophistication unmatched by any other study Bible.” –Willie James Jennings, Andrew W. Mellon Professor of Theology and Africana Studies, Yale Divinity School “Where the WSB differs from and goes beyond other study Bibles is in its attention to the ongoing impact of the biblical books. . . . A superb resource for a wide range of interests, and for both informal education as well as for secondary, postsecondary, and seminary contexts.” — Adele Reinhartz, Distinguished University Professor, Classics and Religious Studies, University of Ottawa “It has a global orientation not seen in many study Bibles.” –Kah-Jin Jeffrey Kuan, President Emeritus and Professor of Hebrew Bible, Claremont School of Theology “Deeply interdisciplinary and attentive to ancient and modern contexts, the WSB provokes us as readers to build bridges among and between different interpretations and the different worlds that have shaped and been shaped by biblical traditions.A most useful text for an undergraduate classroom.” –Jacqueline M. Hidalgo, Professor of Theology and Religious Studies, University of San Diego

Synopsis
The first study Bible to utilize the New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition, The Westminster Study Bible includes interpretive materials from over eighty leading experts who are sensitive to how the biblical texts have been received, what their cultural consequences have been, and how readers might hear them now in multiple contexts., The Westminster Study Bible ( WSB ) is the first entirely new study Bible to utilize the recently released New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition. Soon to be an essential tool for all religious studies contexts, The Westminster Study Bible includes interpretive materials from over eighty leading biblical experts who, as teachers in a variety of educational settings, are sensitive to how the biblical texts have been received, what their cultural and social consequences have been, and how readers might hear them now in multiple contexts. The Westminster Study Bible also pays close attention to the interdisciplinary connections that contemporary students, teachers, and other readers from diverse backgrounds will find both useful and relevant. It is an ideal textbook for a range of biblical studies courses, as well as courses in religion, philosophy, and the general humanities, whether introductory or advanced. The Westminster Study Bible’s emphasis on the cultural framing of the Bible’s theological, historical, literary, and philosophical elements allows it to be useful beyond the university and seminary classrooms, aiding teachers in religious congregations and organizations with their ministries as well. Reading and engaging the Bible today is not as simple as discovering what it meant in its time in order to determine what it means for all time. All readers–whether students or instructors, clergy or general readers, religious or nonreligious–bring their own perspectives to the interpretation of the Bible. The themes and ideas that matter to twenty-first-century readers tend to resonate with our present situations in some way. The Westminster Study Bible takes this interactive dynamic between historical and contemporary interpretations seriously. Through study notes, thematic excursuses, and a range of illuminating essays, The Westminster Study Bible delves into the ancient contexts of the Bible, its continually evolving interpretations, and its contemporary reading and reception, critically exploring both the worlds of the text and the worlds of its many readers today.
