Canon and Biblical Interpretation, vol. 7 (Scripture and Hermeneutics Series)
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
Drawing on a broad array of contributors, volume seven of the Scripture and Hermeneutics Series assesses the current state of canonical interpretation and uses that as a starting point for exploring ingredients in theological interpretation of the Bible today. Canon and Biblical Interpretation begins with a masterful examination of the canonical approach and the various criticisms that have been leveled against it. Additional chapters look at canonical interpretation in relation to different parts of the Bible, such as the Pentateuch, the Wisdom books, the Psalms, and the Gospels. Articles address such issues as canonical authority and the controversial relationship between canonical interpretation and general hermeneutics. A unique chapter explores the relationship between academic exegesis and lectio divina.

This book is advertised as a “Logos Digital Edition”, yet it resembles a standard e-book rather than a true Logos resource. It lacks page numbers, and the layout is poorly executed. This is unfortunate, since a work of such academic caliber deserved far greater care in its presentation. Moreover, scholars using it for research should be able to cite precise page references. One hopes that Logos will return to the high standards once associated with its electronic publications. At the very least, more accurate information about the format should be provided.
