Dalla quarta di copertina

"This book is not just for the Latino/a church but for the whole of God's people."

Drawing on their diverse backgrounds and experiences, three influential scholars bring their expertise in missiology, Old Testament, New Testament, and theology to bear on the topic of biblical interpretation.

"This book illuminates and reminds us all of the spiritual wealth and particular contributions of Latino/a cultures and people to the broader church and community."
--Rev. Alexia Salvatierra, Centro Latino, Fuller Theological Seminary

"An unexcelled basic introduction to Latina and Latino readings of Scripture. It tells the church at large that the Bible is still relevant in our day and will be relevant wherever believers are willing to take the risk of reading it with new eyes."
--Justo L. González, immigrant, church historian, and theologian

"Reading the Bible Latinamente reminds us that the only way to understand the word of God honestly and clearly is to see it through one's cultural identity and social location. The authors make the case for a beautiful and transformational reading--a reading that liberates rather than discriminates, marginalizes, and oppresses people. This book is not just for the Latino/a church but for the whole of God's people."
--Al Tizon, North Park Theological Seminary

"This book captures the richness of Latino interpretation. It truly reflects the hermeneutical realities of being a Latino Christian today, both in North America and around the world."
--Dominick Hernández, Talbot en Español, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University

"To read this book is to come to know the God who has asked us to love our neighbor as well as to come to know our Latino/a neighbors and to be deeply enriched. It is to come to the knowledge of righteousness or right relations for daily living in ways not previously imagined."
--Rev. Elizabeth Conde-Frazier, independent scholar and theological educator
