About the Book

This book considers the academic treatment of biblical interpretation in the renewal movement, the fastest growing tradition in Christendom today. After an initial chapter surveying the history of biblical interpretation in the renewal tradition, Part II outlines a proposal for the future of biblical hermeneutics in the tradition. Six renewal scholars address key questions. What is the role of the Holy Spirit in biblical interpretation? What are the distinctive presuppositions, methods and goals of renewal biblical hermeneutics? Three prominent biblical scholars (Craig G. Bartholomew, James D.G. Dunn, R. Walter L. Moberly) respond to the proposals outlined above. These critical responses deepen the examination of renewal biblical hermeneutics as well as increase its appeal to biblical and theological scholars in general. The final chapter offers a synthesis and evaluation of the accomplishments of the discussion, as well as an assessment of the state of the discipline with an eye toward the future.

Review :
The genius of this book lies in the atmosphere of inquiry it evokes, of significant questions raised and provisional answers proffered. Its six foundational essays reflect a diversity of perspectives rather than a monolithic or myopic point of view, while the responses to these essays by its sympathetic interlocutors, Craig Bartholomew, Jimmy Dunn, and Walter Moberly—contributions alone worth the price of the book—lodge incisive critiques, to which the Pentecostal and charismatic authors of the original essays offer further responses. Though not the first word on the subject and certainly not the last, according to both authors and critics in this volume,this is nonetheless a substantial, scholarly word that should be pivotal in the ongoing effort to carve out a sane and spirit-filled approach to the interpretation of scripture. I warmly commend these essays as what Moberly calls "a first step" in this crucially important dialogue. Much is a forceful defence of Christian "Confessional" exegesis and hermeneutics. In contrast to one or two recent articles which disparage some authors as "not one of us", this volume is eirenical and constructive, not least in providing three good balancing responsive essays. Summarized.
