Overview

In this critical story of scientific interpretation of the Bible from the Enlightenment to the present it is stated: From the beginning it was believed that reason precluded the existence of the living God, who works wonderfully on people. A reasonable ""historical-critical"" interpretation could only be about how Jesus and the first Christians probably introduced themselves to God and lived in faith in him. This book is intended to convince young theologians that this whole way of ""bible criticism"" is based on theological as well as historical prerequisites; and they should be encouraged to take exegesis seriously for the reality of the God proclaimed in the Bible.
