Summary: "Rooted in the theological conviction that God still speaks through the Old Testament in all its fullness, the twelve essays in this books address key theological issues pertinent to the diverse cultures and contexts of Asia. Touching on topics from polytheism and kinship bonds to Scripture translations and the biblical conception of wisdom, the writers position themselves in conversation with Asia's rich spiritual, cultural, and literary heritage. The result is a theological contribution that is both contextually relevant and biblically faithful." Back Cover
