Canon as Rule and Guide
Collected Essays
Seiten
Die 52 hier versammelten Aufsätze, verfasst von Brevard S. Childs, umspannen ein halbes Jahrhundert der Bibelwissenschaft. Sie bieten einen Einblick in die Geschichte der alttestamentlichen Studien durch einen Gelehrten, der daran arbeitete, seine Kenntnisse mit verwandten Disziplinen wie dem Neuen Testament, der Biblischen Theologie und der Geschichte der Auslegung zu integrieren.
The fifty-two essays collected here span half a century of biblical scholarship. Together they provide a view into the history of Old Testament studies from the vantage of a scholar who worked to integrate his command of it with several cognate disciplines, including New Testament, Biblical Theology, and the history of interpretation. Canon is a rule and guide: this is a ubiquitous concern in the work of Brevard Childs. As he argues, scripture has been shaped with frameworks for interpretation, guidelines built into it through a complex editorial process that resulted in a multifaceted canon with two Testaments. Scripture is a canon and rule of faith that in turn shapes the church's confession and life of faith. This approach to scripture entails a holistic view that touches the Bible's composition and reception histories as well as its enduring claim on living communities of faith.
