“If Said admits in Orientalism that he has not done enough on the relationship between ‘Biblical scholarship’ and ‘modern Orientalism,’ Sugirtharajah’s The Bible and Asia will contribute to help fill that lacuna and more!”—Tat-Siong Benny Liew, author of What Is Asian American Biblical Hermeneutics?
“This compelling book tells a story few know and even fewer suspect—the story of Asia in the Bible and the Bible in Asia. Sugirtharajah’s readers will look at the Bible with new eyes.”—Karel van der Toorn, author of Scribal Culture and the Making of the Hebrew Bible
“This is the cumulation of many years of serious, daring, and creative scholarship. There is no doubt that Sugirtharajah has in this book set the standard and provided the foundation on which all subsequent work on the subject will be based.”—Vincent L. Wimbush, author of White Men’s Magic: Scripturalization as Slavery
