This book is an attempt to provide the theological scholars a bird's eye view on various methodologies. These methodologies would be beneficial to make the readers aware of the author, text and context based perspectives in a very succinct manner. This also deals with the various streams of thoughts concentrating on the Philosophical, Roman Catholic and Ecumenical strands; Asian, Indian, Vernacular and other strands. This book will help the readers to see, how these perspectives will be helpful in reading the biblical text, especially the Old Testament texts.
