Scripture as Communication
This is the second textbook I had to read for a module on Hermeneutics at seminary. This was a book which could have done with being shorter. Brown has a number of jewels strewn throughout the book, and the basic premise of conceiving of Scripture as an act of communication has a number of helpful implications. However, her writing varies between unnecessarily dense in some chapters, to a bit unhelpfully structured in others. She clearly has an amazing grasp on the material for herself, but I wish she had cut 50 pages and streamlined the writing. I needed Hermeneutics by Virkler and Ayayo, and Playing by the Rules by Robert Stein, to help clarify Brown's writing. This is a helpful addition, however, to Virkler and Ayayo as Brown writes with a wider grasp of theological and hermeneutical issues (it is worth comparing the two sections on application). Brown's use of speech-act theory is also helpful, if technical at times.
