Recenzii
Listening
to
the
Bible:
The
Art
of
Faithful
Biblical
Interpretation
provides
an
engaging
and
erudite
account
of
the
situation
in
which
Biblical
Studies
finds
itself
in
relation
to
the
faith
community,
and
makes
intriguing
suggestions
as
to
how
that
situation
could
be
resolved
He [the author] is not afraid of what empirical analysis may reveal about a text, or the setting in which it may have been written, but asks whether that is the whole story. He uses the insights of literary criticism to show that there is more to a text than the words or the context from which it comes.
Recommended.
It can be rather difficult to take a middling position on a topic and say something fresh. Bryan succeeds. He provides a balanced hermeneutical approach to the Bible as history, literature, and theology. And his reflections on the artistry of the text, thoroughly grounded in theoreticians (from Quintilian to Auerbach to Alter) and literary artists (from Homer to Shakespeare to Sayers), provide a welcome contribution to a long-standing conversation about the Biblesliterary quality.
