For the Church's One Bible

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In pursuit of the oneness of scripture's scope, Brevard Childs (1923-2007) ranged across the Christian Bible, writing Introductions to the Old and New Testaments before attempting a landmark Biblical Theology of the same. For him the canon is a christological rule of faith, though perceiving the 'family resemblance' in its historic formation and impress in the life of the church as well as, mysteriously, the synagogue, is always a great struggle. Yet Childs' argument for final form exegesis rose out of his form-critical training: Hermann Gunkel is a crucial antecedent. Childs' work has been much discussed, and in the wake of James Barr's criticism much misunderstood. Driver gives its total profile for the first time, from its background and controversy to its later development, analyzing all published titles and filling out this record with a number of previously unseen letters and papers. Born 1979; 2002 BA in English Literature at Wheaton College (IL); 2009 PhD in Divinity at St Mary's College, University of St Andrews (UK); since 2008 Assistant Professor of Religious Studies and Old Testament at Tyndale University College in Toronto.
