I am the Rev. Dr. Steven S. Tuell, the James A. Kelso Professor emeritus of Hebrew and Old Testament at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. After studying at West Virginia Wesleyan College and Princeton Theological Seminary, I earned my doctorate in Hebrew Bible at Union Theological Seminary in Virginia, and taught at Erskine College, SC (1989-1992), Randolph-Macon College, VA (1992- 2005), and Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, PA (2005-2021). An ordained elder in the United Methodist Church, I have pastored churches in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, West Virginia, and Virginia. In retirement, I continue to preach and teach Scripture in a variety of settings. I have written numerous books and articles on the Hebrew Bible, and with my co-authors Stephen Cook and John Strong recently completed The Prophets: Introducing Israel’s Prophetic Literature with Fortress Press (2022). My book Creation in Scripture for Westminster John Knox will be published soon.  My current work in progress is a commentary on Proverbs. My wife Wendy and I have three adult sons.
