"Conversationally engaging; literarily transparent; materially comprehensive; pedagogically superb; academically sound, precise, and informed -- all this and more. In over fifty-two years of teaching in the classrooms of higher education, I have seen nothing comparable to this magnificent work by DeRouchie -- destined to be the classic in its field."
-- EUGENE H. MERRILL, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Old Testament Studies, Dallas Theological Seminary

This book is for anyone who wants to learn how to observe carefully, understand accurately, evaluate fairly, feel appropriately, act rightly, and express faithfully God's revealed Word, especially as embodied in the Old Testament.

Follow an extensively field-tested twelve-step process to deepen understanding and shape theology (biblical, systematic, and practical).
Engage with numerous illustrations from Scripture that model these interpretive steps.
Learn how to track an author's thought-flow, grasp the text's message, and apply the ancient Word in this modern world, all in light of Christ's redeeming work.

Loaded with examples, practical answers, and recommended resources, the twelve chapters will empower believers to study, practice, and teach the Old Testament as Christian Scripture, understanding and applying it in ways that nurture hope in the gospel and magnify the Messiah.

"I recommend this book if you have a wanderlust for exploring ancient treasures. There are many, and they are great. DeRouchie will show you how to find them."
-- John Piper, Founder and Teacher, Desiring God

"I can't help but think of how much less doctrinal error and how much more peace in Christ we would enjoy if we took theology as seriously and cheerfully as DeRouchie."
-- Gloria Furman, Cross-Cultural Worker

"This volume not only will become a standard course textbook, but will also serve as a lifelong resource for those called to study and faithfully proclaim the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ from the Old Testament."
-- Miles V. Van Pelt, Alan Belcher Professor of Old Testament and Biblical Languages, Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson

"Anyone wanting to grapple with how to interpret and apply the Old Testament will find this volume immensely helpful. It is scholarly, rich in theological and exegetical insight, and attentive to Hebrew grammar and syntax, yet the step-by-step approach to the interpretive task means that it is accessible for pastors and Bible teachers alike. You will want to have this volume in your library!"
-- Carol M. Kaminski, Professor of Old Testament, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary
