From the start I liked Bruce Birch’s Let Justice Role Down. He gives solid reasons for why this book is important for both theology and ethics. He honestly examines the Old Testament and practically applies the theoretical insights from narrative theology (seen in Frei, McClendon, and Hauerwas) to the Old Testament. I thought it was great. For me personally, it was an opportunity to hear afresh the worldview of the Bible (specifically the OT) and in a sense to rebuild broken aspects of my faith. ( )

Theological, literary, historical, and sociological modes of analysis are all utilized with great effectiveness, and the author manifests his critical acumen in his assessment of a wide range of scholarly material relevant to the broad scope of his inquiry and critical synthesis.
tilføjet af Christa_Josh | RedigerReligious Studies Review, Howard Clark Kee (Jul 1, 1994)
 
Birch's book is competent, thorough, well researched--the best study currently available on the subject. Written clearly and helpfully, it will appeal to clergy and laity in the church and should also find use in the classroom. Christian ethicists will especially want to take note of its discussions about the Old Testament as a moral resource.
tilføjet af Christa_Josh | RedigerInterpretation, Douglas A. Knight (Jan 1, 1994)
 
This volume is a wonderful, readable introduction to ethics and the Bible that should remain valuable for years, for the author concerns himself with the OT as a "moral resource" rather than with moral issues per se.
tilføjet af Christa_Josh | RedigerCatholic Biblical Quarterly, John C. Kesterson (Oct 1, 1993)
 
Birch's book will prove helpful for the pastor, teacher, or layperson seeking to discover the relevance of the Old Testament for moral and ethical living.
tilføjet af Christa_Josh | RedigerTheological Educator, Janice Meier (Sep 1, 1993)
 
This book is valuable for ministers, scholars, and others interested in biblical theology.
