Buch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - About This VolumeOn Interpreting Sacred Scripture consists of two of Johan Gerhard's commonplaces and one additional collection on method: On Scripture, On Interpretation, and Methods On Scripture defends the sufficiency, perfection, wholeness, and perspicuity of the scriptures, while also covering the role of tradition and the history of the canon.

Gerhard encourages a predominantly literal approach to the scriptures, but allows for allegorical, tropological, and other supporting modes of interpretation. Methods collects Gerhard's prescriptions for proper, faithful study of the scriptures, including a foundational practice of prayer, the study of original languages, and a supplemental education in philosophy and theology.About This SeriesThe Theological Commonplaces series is the first-ever English translation of Gerhard's monumental Loci Theologici.
