Craig L. Blomberg (Ph.D., Aberdeen) is distinguished professor of New Testament at Denver Seminary and the author of The Historical Reliability of the Gospels (revised) and The Historical Reliability of John's Gospel.
"This book is highly recommended. . . . All serious teachers and
expositors of the parables should profit from this book."
*David L. Turner, Grand Rapids Theological Seminary*
"This book is well written and meticulously researched, worth
reading for its innumerable footnotes alone. It interacts with a
wide range of literature of all shades."
*David J. Graham, Glasgow Bible College*
"It is good news when a good book on an important topic gets a new
lease of life. Blomberg's book is lucid, well-informed and
reliable, and I warmly welcome this new updated edition."
*David Wenham, Trinity College, Bristol*
"This revised and expanded edition of Craig L. Blomberg?s
Interpreting the Parables is more than an accessible and reliable
guide to the history of parable interpretation and the exegetical
methods that have been applied to the parables in recent research.
Blomberg's nuanced defense of allegory as a valid approach to
parable interpretation is a worthwhile contribution to contemporary
scholarship. His provocative contention that the parables of Jesus
contain implicit Christological claims will be welcome to
evangelical and other traditional Christian readers."
*Mary Ann Beavis, Ph.D., professor of religion and culture, St.
Thomas More College, Canada*
"Craig Blomberg continues to swim strongly against the tide with
his 'minority position' in parables studies. I think he makes as
good a case as possible for his position that Jesus' parables are
allegories, and in the course of his exposition of the individual
parables usually ensures that there are some new insights even for
interpreters who disagree with him. His updated discussion of the
history of parable research, and his attention to recent
developments in parable theory, will be welcomed by everyone."
*Stanley E. Porter, president, dean and professor of New Testament
at McMaster Divinity College, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada*
