Going against the false perception that all Latinx views on the Bible are homogeneous, the contributors in this book use different hermeneutic perspectives to interpret the New Testament. Each chapter examines one of the twenty-seven documents thematically instead of following the traditional verse-by-verse commentary format.

A major tidal turn has occurred in academic biblical studies, signaled by the arrival of the Global South into the colonial metropolitan centers. Not only do they insert their bodies, colors, races, accents, they also read and write back to the Empire, thereby underlining the imperative to revisit academic biblical studies pedagogy in terms of methods, theories, and content. This volume is heartily welcomed, for not only does it attest to this major tidal turn, but it also enables the responsible professor to change the syllabus accordingly. Let this be a happy arrival and reading for both the professors and students of biblical studies who wish answer to their times!
