Interpretation
"What makes this study so important is the way it lays bare persistent errors in Synoptic Problem research with respect to media operations. While it does not address all the problems, it offers a promising path forward with respect to memory that will radically alter the current face of Synoptic Problem studies."

"Evangelicals will find much food for thought in this cogent, well-argued guide."
"The Bible and the Ballot is a book where Tremper Longman III’s biblical scholarship, wisdom, and intellectual integrity converge. His goal is less to tell you what to think than to explain how to think, in a way that is faithful, theologically rigorous, and authentically biblical. In an era when many politically engaged evangelical Christians are discrediting their faith, Tremper Longman honors it."

"This book is a tremendous gift to Christians seeking counsel on how to read Scripture to make political decisions! Tremper Longman’s expert biblical scholarship, his love for God’s word, and his longing for Christian citizens to be shaped by Scripture come through on every page."
