Hermeneia Commentary Series Online

We are happy to be able to offer online access to the full text of all volumes in the Hermeneia biblical commentary series, published by Fortress Press. They are available to all users here in the Library or within our IP range, including the UPSem campuses. They can also be opened remotely by current students, faculty and staff of UPSem, and also by BTSR, PSCE and Union alumni. We are especially pleased about this, because alumni access is not typically part of an institutional site license. If you have a valid Library account, use your barcode and PIN to access these resources remotely.

These volumes are fully integrated into our Library catalog, so you can access them through any catalog search by clicking on the View Full Text PDF link in the book’s catalog record. Also, you have the option of opening them through the live links on this page.

If you are a student, faculty or staff member, or Union, PSCE or BTSR alum, and you need to obtain or update your Library account, please contact our Circulation Supervisor, Lisa Janes. If you already have a valid barcode and PIN but you are having trouble using your login, please contact our Electronic Services Librarian, Ryan Douthat. If you are not familiar with the Hermeneia commentary series and have questions about it, or you need other research assistance, please contact the Seminary Librarian, Robin McCall.

Please note that the Hermeneia series is still being published, so a commentary does not yet exist for every portion of Scripture. Here are links to the existing volumes in the Hermeneia commentary series :
