| Summary: | This paper reflects on the church's engagement with the biblical text and the emergency in the church when the church is inattentive to the biblical text. It considers the impact of the modern interpretive period in the church's loss of the text and ponders what the church's recovery of the text might entail. The large theological sweep of the biblical text is seen as an offer of reality profoundly alternative to the dominant scripting of reality in our society. Particular attention is paid to the peculiar opportunity of the preacher-pastor in lining out an alternative scripting of reality vouched for in this text. |
