Many readers of the Bible believe that interpreting the Scriptures
well simply involves a two-way dialogue between themselves and the
text. Implied in this view is the idea that we can simply jump over
two thousand years of biblical interpretation. However, if we
believe that God has been speaking through the Bible to devout
believers throughout history it would seem that we should find a
way to identify the insights they perceived in the text so that we
can learn to read these sacred texts with them. Drawing on
resources from Reception Theory, the goal of 'Reading the Bible
with the Giants' is to enable the contemporary reader to interpret
the Bible in dialogue with those who have gone before us.
