By S&T Eds, 10 March 2008

10 Comments

Since 1998 the Scripture and Hermeneutics Seminar has met annually with the purpose of renewing interpretation of the Bible in the Academy. Out of these consultations has come the Scripture and Hermeneutics Series, in eight parts, published by Zondervan and Paternoster Press. In recognition of this achievement, S&T is running an eight-part review of SHS 1–8, by Mark Elliott.

"There is a battle going on at the moment between those who believe that biblical criticism is too much in the grip of a secular and skeptical spirit and those who think it has still not managed to escape the hand of ecclesiastical and religious authority." —John Barton (Oriel and Laing Professor of the Interpretation of Holy Scripture, Oxford)
