Episode description

How do we do responsible and holistic exegesis of the Hebrew Bible? What are principles and methods that we can apply reasonably and consistently? In this unique interview, Dr. Matthieu Richelle wrote responses to questions that we sent him about his book on the subject. In this episode we share our correspondence with him and also share our own thoughts.

Dr. Matthieu Richelle is Professor of Old Testament Exegesis at the Universitè catholique de Louvain (Belgium).
