Given the extraordinary richness and range of contemporary theology, questions about the authority and inspiration of the Bible tend to garner ever increasing variety, complexity and controversy. Among those challenges include the questions posed by biblical criticism to the enterprise of Christian theology, and the place of scripture in the life of the contemporary church.  
  
Employing a range of conversation partners, this book will provide an up-to-date survey of the diverse ways in which contemporary theologians use the Bible 'to think with'. The volume enables students to compare different approaches to the reading of scripture. It also explores the ways in which the theological interpretation of scripture can be both a critical and a spiritual exercise.

    A Helpful and Reliable Introductory Guide to the Interpretation of Scripture

    William Lamb, Vice-Principal and Tutor in New Testament Studies at Westcott House, Cambridge, and an Affiliated Lecturer in the Faculty of Divinity at the University of Cambridge, UK, has written a book that """"offers a reliable guide to the complexities and conflicts of theological, historical and literary approaches to Scripture. """" The book is well-researched, theologically informed, thoughtful, and balanced. It is by no means easy reading, however. There is much information that is packed into this volume. Further, the contents can be better presented with the use of more headings and subheadings to guide the reader (some sections can go on for several pages without any subheadings). That said, for any beginning students of Scripture and Hermeneutics, this book will be a good introductory volume.
