Christology and Hermeneutics discusses the history of the
interpretation of the Letter to the Hebrews. Contributors assess
the study and interpretation of Hebrews across the last two
millennia. Beginning with the Patristic period, the book goes on to
examine the responses of Thomas Aquinas, Martin Luther, John
Calvin, as well as more recent figures such as Karl Barth and
contemporary global interpreters.
The premise behind the work is to move study of Hebrews away
from the perennial arguments about its authorship and provenance
and to instead engage with it from a theological perspective,
focusing upon the text's reception history. Consequently the issue
of the Christological message in Hebrews is at the forefront and is
considered both in terms of the interpreter's context and
historical setting. At the end of the book the investigations are
summarised and responded to by leading scholars Harold Attridge,
Donald A. Hagner and Kathryn Greene-McCreight; providing a fitting
conclusion to a radical academic project.
