AB C.K. Barrett understood his historical and exegetical work as broadly speaking New Testament theology – his impartial and independent historical-critical research motivated and guided by religious and theological aims and interests. When late in his career he reflected more deeply on this discipline, he did not make explicit the importance of the interpreter’s own standpoint, except to emphasize the relationship of New Testament theology to preaching. Drawing on Gabler’s and Barth’s contrasting views of the relationship between biblical scholarship and modern theology, the article considers some of Barrett’s theoretical statements and advocates a more Schleiermacherian account of New Testament theology as a sub-division of historical theology.
