Draws together the most important articles on Scripture and hermeneutics by distinguished scholar and author N. T. Wright. Interpreting Scripture brings together into one volume Wright's self-selected, key lectures, papers, and reflections on topics of scriptural interpretation, including: The Lord's Prayer as a Paradigm of Christian Prayer Christian Origins and the Question of God Faith, Virtue, Justification, and the Journey to Freedom Revelation and Christian Hope: Political Implications of the Revelation to John Apocalyptic and the Sudden Fulfilment of Divine Promise …and many more. Interpreting Scripture displays Wright's engaging prose, his courage to go where few have gone, and his joy to bridge the work of the academy and the church. Here is a rich feast for any serious student of the Bible, especially of the New Testament. Detailed, incisive, and exquisitely nuanced exegesis, this collection will reward you with a clearer, deeper, and more informed appreciation of Scripture and its application to Christian life and thought today. Many of the included studies have never been published or were made available only in hard-to-find larger volumes and journals.

"Perhaps more than any other nation, America has been shaped by the Bible. In The Bible in America, a group of young scholars explore the ambiguous and complex ways in which the Word has been both a radical and conservative force in America, from the days of the Puritans through Sam Ervin and Jimmy Carter: how through three centuries the Bible has influenced civil religion and written culture, church life and political rhetoric, and the ways in which it has created a distinct view of history and a unique national consciousness in the United States."--Back cover.

Popular author and scholar Dr. Scott Hahn has released a collection of essays on the study and interpretation of Scripture from a Catholic perspective. Aptly titled Scripture Matters: Essays on Reading the Bible from the Heart of the Church, Dr. Hahn takes a penetrating look into the depths of Scripture, showing the reader how to uncover its many layers of meaning and inspiration. Scripture Matters serves both as an instructional guide to reading the Bible and as a delightful meditation on the grandeur of God's Word. Dr. Hahn effectively illustrates his discussion with the writings of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Saint Josemaría Escrivá, Cardinal Ratzinger, and other exemplary scholars of Scripture who truly speak "from the heart of the Church."
