Exegetical Analysis : A Practical Guide for Applying Biblical Research to the Social Sciences

By Joshua D. Henson, Steven S. Crowther, Russell L. Huizing

Exegetical Analysis: A Practical Guide for Applying Biblical Research to the Social Sciences delivers a fresh perspective on biblical research. Designed specifically for those who wish to explore biblical principles in the social-scientific context, Exegetical Analysis provides practical and methodological insights that will guide the reader in writing an exegetical research paper from start to finish. Each chapter takes the reader step-by-step through the exegetical research process. Diverging from typical hermeneutical texts, Exegetical Analysis provides visually and mentally stimulating content such as illustrations, charts, figures and concept maps designed not only to teach methodology but also how to apply it. With thought-provoking reflective exercises and content authored by three emerging leaders in the field of biblical research in the social sciences, this book is practical enough for the novice biblical research student and extensive enough for the seasoned scholar. Exegetical Analysis lives up to its title as a practical guide, being structured around five basic considerations every exegetical researcher should answer: Knowing the 'Whys': Why am I researching the Bible? Discovering the 'Whats': What topic will I research? Answering the 'Hows': How will I research the topic? Addressing the 'So Whats': What is the point of my research? Ending with the 'Now Whats': What do I expect my readers to do with my research? While available in both print and e-book format, the comprehensive e-book format includes six concise videos introducing vital concepts to students as well as instructor resources for every chapter. Whether writing graduate-level exegetical research papers, doctoral dissertations, or exegetical manuscripts, Exegetical Analysis: A Practical Guide for Applying Biblical Research to the Social Sciences is a vital resource for those exploring and applying biblical principles in a variety of social-scientific contexts.
