Scholarly and stimulating look at the importance of the Bible for Blacks and of Blacks in the Bible. ""Lucidly written with profound messages . . .""-Black Issues in Higher Education
A comprehensive and challenging look at the significance of the Bible for blacks, and the importance of blacks in the Bible. "Timely . . . serious and creative."--The Catholic Journal
This is a comprehensive and challenging look at the significance of the Bible for Blacks and the importance of Blacks in the Bible. Troubling Biblical Waters provides critical resources for studying the Bible, especially in relation to Black religion and the Church. Felder pays particular attention to issues of racial pluralism in the Bible, Old and New Testament mandates of social justice, and other biblical teachings relating to the human family and its survival. Sound, detailed scholarship and organization offer a greater racial balance and corrective to biblical hermeneutics and their historiographic assumptions.
Cain Hope Felder (1943-2019) served as professor of New Testament language and literature at Howard University's School of Divinity from 1981 until his retirement in 2016.
