Summary: | As MacDonald’s introduction to this book hints, this book is perhaps as important for its existence as for its content: it is a collection of papers given at a conference with the same title at St Andrews University in 2006, the second of what is hoped will be an ongoing series of conferences bringing together biblical scholars and systematic theologians. It is testimony to the fact that, despite prevailing tendencies among both groups, there are modern Christian theologians who see their task as originating in, and necessarily anchored to, the interpretation of Scripture. Even more surprisingly, there are biblical scholars who consider their primary task to be doing theology, rather than the history of religions or literary appreciation. |
