Synopsis
This definitive study looks at the task of interpreting Scripture by exploring four broad models for understanding Scripture, namely, ""witnessing tradition,"" ""authoritative canon,"" ""inspired word,"" and ""experienced revelation."" The diversity of interpretive approaches implied by the use of these four models is carried further by a methodological openness within each of the four major divisions of the book. For instance, in dealing with the interpretation of scriptural narrative, Goldingay carefully explains how literary approaches to Scripture and a concern for the history in the Bible's stories can be held together with other interpretive focuses. In his discussion of differing approaches and focuses in interpretation, Goldingay is impressively clear and informative and demonstrates a sophisticated ability to respond to and challenge what other scholars have written. Throughout this volume, Goldingay continually moves toward the interpreter's final task - communication to others of what has been gained in interpretation. He asks, for example, what are the implications of the different interpretive strategies for Christian life, human liberation, preaching and Christian community life. He demonstrates his conclusions with numerous examples of interpretation - his own and others - of specific Bible passages.
