Explorations in Theology 7

These papers, some previously unpublished, raise important questions about the nature. use and context of theological study of the Bible. Does biblical study still belong to theology? Has the Bible any authority? How is the Bible to be seen as a political document? What is the relationship between historical criticism and theological interpretation? Professor Barr also explores the place of story in biblical theology and the character of the Bible as literature; he also takes further his critique of fundamentalism.
