| Summary: | The purpose of this book, as the author states, is to facilitate the following question: "Might not a more significant interaction between hermeneutics and doctrine play some part in rescuing doctrine from its marginalized function and abstraction from life, and deliver it from its status as mere theory?" (xvi). Thiselton forwards the notion that since hermeneutics is a practice and an art, a communal understanding (Rahner and Gadamer), it would prove adequate for interacting with doctrine, which is very often isolated from life and human experience (xix). |
