About this Series
This academic monograph series showcases critical scholarship investigating the interplay between the historical, literary, and theological dimensions of the books of the Hebrew Bible / Old Testament. Individual volumes may pursue a historical-critical approach, considering the biblical writings are historical artifacts. But these texts are also literary works. This series, named after the Hebrew term for “literature,” focuses on the importance of literary shape and theological expression in performing exegesis, which has been sometimes minimized or overlooked in modern biblical scholarship.
