From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

D. Andrew Kille (b. 1950) received the first Ph.D. granted in psychological biblical criticism from the Graduate Theological Union in 1997. His interest in psychology and the Bible began during his years as a pastor in San Jose in the early 1970s and 1980's, and was nurtured through the work of Morton Kelsey, John Sanford, Elizabeth Howes and the Guild for Psychological Studies, and Carl Jung. He has contributed to several volumes of psychological biblical criticism, and is the author of Psychological Biblical Criticism (Fortress Press, 2001) in the Guides to Biblical Scholarship series. In 2007, he became the editor of The Bible Workbench, a study resource on the Bible rooted in a psychologically informed approach.
