Previous attempts to critique the canonical approach of Brevard
Childs have remained largely theoretical in nature. One of the
weakness of canonical criticism, then, is its failure to have
generated new readings of extended biblical passages. Reviewing the
hermeneutics and the praxis of Childs's approach, Lyons then turns
to the Sodom narrative (Gen 18-19) as a test of a practical
exegesis according to Childs' principles, and then to reflect
critically upon the reading experience generated. Surprisingly, the
canonical reading produced is a wholly new one, centred around the
complex, irreducible - even contradictory - request of Abraham for
Yahweh to do justice (18:23-25).
