Steven L. McKenzie is Professor of Religious Studies and Spence L. Wilson Senior Research Fellow at Rhodes College, in Memphis, Tennessee. His previous books include King David: A Biography and How to Read the Bible: History, Prophecy, Literature—Why Modern Readers Need to Know the Difference and What It Means for Faith Today. Matthieu Richelle is Professor of Old Testament Exegesis at the Université catholique de Louvain, in Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium. He has published sixty scholarly articles and five books, including Interpreting Israel's Scriptures: A Practical Guide to the Exegesis of the Hebrew Bible / Old Testament and 2 Rois 2,19-13,25: Le cycle d'Elisée, an exegetical commentary on the Elisha cycle.

The work bridges the gap between textual study and historical, literary, and reception analyses. Its ambitious ideological contributions also shape future interpretive approaches. For biblical scholars and historians of ancient Israel, this is a must-have, essential both for quick consultations (e.g., on textual history, chronology, and ancient translations) and for critical orientation in recent debates (composition, narrative, reception, and ideological readings). Thanks to its well-organized structure and interdisciplinary list of authors, this book is characterized by a high level of substantive quality and serves as an exemplary didactic synthesis and research panorama for the new decade of biblical scholars and historians.
