In this book, James Aageson likens interpretation to a conversation
and uses Paul as a model for illustrating this. In Paul's case,
interpretation is a conversation between Paul and scripture.
Aageson gives four case studies of Paul conversing with scripture:
Paul's use of Abraham texts, his understanding of Israel, his use
of the figure of Adam, and his seeing Christ as a figure by which
all traditions are understood in new ways.
As a Jew, Paul learned the skills of biblical interpretation and
placed them in the service of a christological and ecclesiological
message. For Paul, scriptural texts had integrity and generated a
message for his own time and situation.
