Abstract
Review of: Melcher, Sarah, Mikeal C. Parsons and Amos Yong (eds.). The Bible and Disability: A Commentary. London: SCM Press, 2018.
The Bible and Disability: A Commentary is a fascinating study of the Bible from a disability perspective. Unique in its comprehensiveness, in 12 chapters the volume offers a commentary on each book of the Bible. All 12 authors are experts in their field of biblical studies, but also write from a disability perspective. The result is an elaborate introduction (460 pages without indexes) to the many perspectives on disability that can be found in the biblical literature.
