William Oliverio has already shown himself an expert on the state of Pentecostal hermeneutics, writing on the range of positions found among Pentecostal scholars today. This volume brings to bear his prodigious theological acumen, his knowledge of global Pentecostalism, and his insights on the most current state of Pentecostal hermeneutics. --Craig S. Keener, Asbury Theological Seminary Bill Oliverio is one of the foremost Pentecostal hermeneuts in the world. In this book, we encounter him at the height of his intellectual prowess yet pressing toward the mark for the prize of higher summits of scholarship. This collection of essays demonstrates that Oliverio is not at the end of his scholarly gifts; he is not even at the beginning of their end, but at the beginning of the beginning. Expect more from him. --Nimi Wariboko, Boston University If 'hermeneutics' is the science and art of reading, Oliverio is one of the few Pentecostal hermeneuts who recognizes that our ability to read books, texts, and even Scripture is intertwined with our capacity to read the world around us. This collection of essays . . . performs effectively the reiterative and dynamic character of the hermeneutical spiral and invites readers into the conversation--welcome to a hermeneutical imagination that attempts to follow where the Spirit leads! --Amos Yong, Fuller Seminary Oliverio brings together in this book a rich engagement with philosophy along with specific reflection on the tacit conditions that inform interpretation to develop a robust theological hermeneutic that is authentic to the Pentecostal tradition. The result is a pneumatically centered ecumenical vision for the interpretive task. --Jacqueline N. Grey, Alphacrucis College
