What Is the Bible?

What Is the Bible? reopens a consideration of the doctrine of Scripture for contemporary theology, rooted in the tradition of the church Fathers (Greek, Latin, and Oriental)âan endeavor inspired by the theological vision of the twentieth centuryâs foremost Orthodox Christian theologian, Fr. Georges Florovsky. Containing essays by leading historians and theologians, the interest is not in mere description of historical uses of Scripture or interpretive methods, but rather in the very nature of Scripture itself and its place within the whole economy of creation, revelation, and salvation.
