Biblical Hermeneutics
Course Description
Modernity and postmodernity have provided various critical methods and perspectives with respect to biblical interpretation. This course aims to examine the assumptions, history, and variety of these methods; to probe the coherence and value of their perspectives; to trace the legacy of their impact and clarify their effects; and to offer a charitable way ahead that is both intellectually sustainable and consistent with the faith of the Church in respect of its Scriptures.Fall 2024
