Description
Summary:This work offers three lucid, carefully argued lectures from I. Howard Marshall, in search of ‘a principled way of moving from Scripture to its contemporary understanding and application’ (p. 9) while avoiding the Scylla and Charybdis of ‘liberalism’ and ‘fundamentalism’, followed by critical but sympathetic responses from Kevin J. Vanhoozer and Stanley E. Porter., Insisting that ‘all of us do in fact go beyond Scripture in our doctrine. There is such a thing as development in doctrine’ (p. 42), Marshall sensibly concludes that ‘The closing of the canon is not incompatible with the nonclosing of the interpretation of that canon’ (p. 54). ‘How can we decide which developments are legitimate?’ (p. 44).
