Culture and Biblical Hermeneutics: Interpreting and Applying the Authoritative Word in a Relativistic Age

By William J. Larkin Jr.

Book Overview

This volume grapples with what the author calls 'the challenge that historical and cultural relativism poses to the hermeneutical process when applied to the authoritative Scripture.' The author addresses this 'challenge' by analyzing both the roots and the current state of biblical hermeneutics and by developing a biblical theology of hermeneutics and culture.
