Produktbeschreibung
Scripture has always played an important role in Christian theology. This study provides an issue-oriented overview of the concepts of Scripture in Protestant theology from the 16th century Reformation onward. It then sets forth the concepts of Scripture in the theologies of two contemporary systematic theologians: W. Pannenberg and D.G. Bloesch. It analyzes, compares and evaluates the theological and anthropological presuppositions that have influenced their concept of Scripture. Despite fundamentally different starting points and other significant distinctions Pannenberg and Bloesch reveal surprising similarities. This seems to suggest that for both the concept of Scripture is determined ultimately by presuppositions that are derived and shaped extra scripturam .

Rezensionen
"Perhaps the most impressive feature of his dissertation is the thoroughness of the research, both with respect to the writings of Pannenberg and Bloesch and in terms of the broad range of theological responses to their positions as a whole as well as their views on Scripture. The author has consulted virtually every piece of writing in all the pertinent languages. The dissertation is well constructed and its arguments clearly developed. It is reader-friendly - clearly written in a style quite easy to read." (Prof. Dr. Carl E. Braaten, Professor of Systematic Theology, Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago)
"...Hasel's dissertation is especially noteworthy ... for its clear, balanced, accurate, and thorough going portrayal. It is the definite work on its topic." (Prof. Dr. Kenneth A. Strand, Professor Emeritus of Church History and Co-director of the Ph.D./Th.D. Programs, Andrews University, Berrien Springs)
"Dem Autor ist es nicht nur durch eine beispielhaft umfassende Analyse der Primär- und Sekundärquellen und durch den direkten Dialog mit Pannenberg und Bloesch gelungen, ihre theologischen Grundlagen authentisch aufzuzeigen, sondern er hat gleichzeitig die Bedeutung der Rolle der Heiligen Schrift in der theologischen Forschung überhaupt herausgearbeitet und damit einen wertvollen Beitrag zu dieser bleibend aktuellen Frage geleistet. ...Es ist zu hoffen, daß die Arbeit, die wegen ihrer guten Übersichtlichkeit und Lesbarkeit übrigens auch für den informierten Laien von Nutzen sein dürfte, auf reges Interesse in der Fachwelt stößt." (Winfried Vogel, APD-Informationen)
"Hasel's work...serves a valuable function within today's theological world and is something that needs to be taken seriously." (Bruce Norman, Seminary Studies)
