Overview

Critical biblical scholarship as developed and defined since the mid-eighteenth century has played a significant and welcome role in pressing us to take biblical texts seriously on their own terms and diverse contexts. With the postmodern turn, additional questions have surfaced—including the theological and ecclesial location of biblical interpretation, the significance of canon and creed for biblical hermeneutics, the historical reception of biblical texts, and other more pointedly theological interests. How might we engage interpretively with the Christian Scriptures so as to hear and attend to God’s voice? The Journal of Theological Interpretation aims to serve these agendas.

The Logos edition of these theological journals speeds up your research and sermon preparation. Search across volumes of recent scholarship in theological interpretation studies. Find every article that mentions the topic or Scripture passage you’re preaching on or researching. Trace the development of key theological themes by accessing the latest scholarship—like never before.

Top Highlights

“A theological hermeneutics of Christian Scripture concerns the role of Scripture in the faith and formation of persons and ecclesial communities. Theological interpretation emphasizes the potentially mutual influence of Scripture and doctrine in theological discourse and, then, the role of Scripture in the self-understanding of the church and in critical reflection on the church’s practices.” (Page 2)

“(4) Theological exegesis attends to the literary wholeness of the individual scriptural witnesses.” (Page 12)

“When he speaks of what we see through ‘eyes of faith,’ he refers to the very concrete and radically disturbing vision of embodied reality offered us by the biblical narrators and by the prophets and apostles. In this vision of the world, the truth about human life is given only in Scripture—that is to say, only through the mysterious working of God in the election of Israel and the death and resurrection of Jesus.” (Page 6)

“But it does mean that theological exegetes will seek the big picture, asking how any particular text fits into the larger biblical story of God’s gracious action.” (Page 13)

“the heart of scriptural interpretation is the Christian life itself.3” (Page 102)
