Dr. Jeannine Brown: I’m professor of New Testament at Bethel Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota. In addition to New Testament courses, I also teach our Hermeneutics course (focusing on biblical interpretation) and the integrative seminar that our students take in their final year of seminary. I have specialties in the Gospels and Matthew and John particularly, along with Philippians and 1 Peter among the epistles. My most recent book, The Gospels as Stories, explores a narrative approach to reading the Gospels. I also specialize in hermeneutics ( Scripture as Communication) and have collaborated in the area of interdisciplinary integration ( Relational Integration between Psychology and Christian Theology). It is distinct from the NIV Zondervan Study Bible, edited by Don Carson and released in August 2015, which was later re-titled the NIV Biblical Theology Study Bible in September 2018.
