Phenomenologies of Scripture addresses two increasingly convergent
disciplines: philosophy and biblical studies. On the one hand, the
recent "theological turn" in phenomenology has established religion
as a legitimate area of phenomenological inquiry. If that turn is
to be enduringly successful, phenomenology must pay attention to
the scriptures on which religious life, practice, and thought are
based. On the other hand, biblical studies finds itself in a
methodological morass. Contemporary approaches to scripture have
raised important questions about the meaning and function of
scriptural texts that phenomenology is uniquely positioned to
answer: How is the meaning of a text constructed or gleaned? How
can the divine be present in human words? Is a scientific approach
to the Bible still possible? Bringing together essays by eight of
today's most prominent philosophers of religion with responses by
two leading biblical scholars, Phenomenologies of Scripture
reestablishes the possibility of fruitful, dialectical exchange
between fields that demand to be read together.
