Biography
Professor Crenshaw, who taught Old Testament at Duke Divinity School from 1987-2008, is one of the leading interpreters of wisdom literature in the Bible. His most recent book, Qoheleth: The Ironic Wink, engages modern interpreters in a debate over the lasting relevance of the author of Ecclesiastes and the place of Ecclesiastes as a book of the bible. The book was published in 2014 by the University of South Carolina Press as the fifteenth volume in the series, Personalities of the Old Testament, which Crenshaw edits. Crenshaw has also published commentaries on Ecclesiastes and Sirach, a collection of essays, Urgent Advice and Probing Questions, Education in Ancient Israel, and Defending God: Biblical Responses to the Problem of Evil.
