Descripción
Sumario:The three branches of the title are those represented by Heracleon, Irenaeus, and Origen. The first is arcane, tendentious, sometimes ‘playful’, the second argues this anomalous text into harmony with three of its rivals to create an orthodox canon for the episcopal church, the third domesticates allegory to give strength and amplitude to this catholic reading. In a prefatory chapter Keefer takes up the thesis of Hans Robert Jauss, that reception theory is an indispensable part of hermeneutics, finding an ally in Gerhard Ebeling's contention that, since Christ exists for us only in exposition, the truly historical reading of a gospel resides in its homiletic and pastoral application.
