Scripture: A Very Theological Proposal

Autor Dr Angus Paddison
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 oct 2009
To identify the biblical texts as 'Scripture' is to make a series of specific claims about this text: that it is drawn into the activity of the triune God of Israel; that its ultimate destination is the worshipping church; and that it has a ministry in shaping Christian thinking and acting. Scripture: A Very Theological Proposal advances that the resources for reading Scripture, understanding its claims, and acting upon them will be found by looking to the church's life and doctrines. Reading Scripture with a host of theologians, Paddison proposes a hermeneutic appropriate to reading Scripture both as divine address and the book of the church. The book positions itself by resisting accounts in which Scripture's relationship to God and its life within the church are understood competitively, as if the more we attend to one the less we are attending to the other. Chapters further explore a doctrine of Scripture and the relationship of ethics, doctrine, and preaching to Scripture. A final chapter asks, can, or should, Scripture be read in the university?

Recenzii

'Paddison's lively and thoroughly-informed book articulates a set of well-digested theological convictions about the nature of Scripture and the tasks of its interpreters.  For clarity, penetration and purposefulness, the book has few equals, and it will surely prompt its readers to fresh attention to Scripture's place in God's saving communication.' - John Webster, King's College, Aberdeen, Scotland, UK.
'Very theological indeed.  Paddison gives us a vigorous argument in favor of doctrine as the guide to biblical interpretation, and the church as the fitting context.  Plenty to chew over for anyone interested in reading the bible as the Word of God.' - R. R. Reno,  Department of Theology, Creighton University, Omaha, NE, USA.
'Paddison brings together a variety of recent voices on scripture, some well known and some not so well known, to present a bold and robust theological vision of the Bible's place in God's economy, and thus in the church's life of worship, mission, and contemplation.' - Telford Work, Religious Studies, Westmont College, Santa Barbara, CA, USA
This volume is well written and passionately argued. The chapter on preaching should be required reading for all seminarians in the United States.
