| Summary: | Judith L. Kovacs has provided a useful resource. The history of reception of the biblical writings has come to occupy an increasingly prominent place in current biblical scholarship, and rightly so. But is this a history of reception, or a history of interpretation? The General Editor's Introduction and the specific selection of sources, which are mainly extracts from Patristic commentaries, suggest the latter. However, since Brevard Childs's commentary on Exodus (1974) and Ulrich Luz's commentary on Matthew (1985–2002) the history of reception has begun to flourish as a broader and more critical subdiscipline, drawing material not only from a history of texts written as commentaries (most of which are moderately accessible), but also from doctrine, liturgy, and other texts and practices. |
