Philosophical Interpretations of the Old Testament

By integrating philosophical hermeneutics, the author navigates a middle ground between faith-based theology and historical-critical methods in biblical studies. The work offers original interpretations of significant biblical texts, such as the Akedah and Job, while also addressing contemporary themes like monotheism, religious identity, and ethics. Additionally, a supplementary essay explores the history of Old Testament studies in Japan and discusses future directions, providing readers with both academic insights and fresh perspectives on enduring religious questions.
