Summary: | Text-books of former days have been rightly criticised for using the Bible in a lazy manner as a «mine of premises». The same reproach would apply to the historian of exegesis who would make no attempt to situate the texts in the horizon of their ancient authors. While the cultural context in which they thought and wrote was predominantly hellenistic, they owed much also to biblical methods of reading. It would, moreover, be difficult to understand their works without taking into account the polemic context in which they were written. Throwing light on each other, the great theologies allow us to draw the figure of Jesus Christ in mutually complementary perspectives. |
