Few scholars have thought so long or so carefully about the role of
biblical authority in the light of historical- and
literary-critical scholarship as has James D. G. Dunn. Even fewer
are as capable of communicating profound respect for the biblical
witness with genuine insight into its complexity and pluriformity.
Avoiding easy - and possibly misleading - answers, Dunn offers
precise responses to questions about the history behind the Gospels
and their consequent trustworthiness; the original scandal
presented by Jesus' teaching, and by Paul's; the problem of
pseudonymity in the Pauline letters and elsewhere; and what weight
should be given to what the Bible itself says about scriptural
authority, and to the final shape of the biblical canon. This
Second Edition includes new essays on "bridging the gap between the
academy and the church," the hallmarks of "good exposition" of
scripture, and a concluding chapter on the Bible as living
tradition.
