Biblical Reasoning: Christological and Trinitarian Rules for Exegesis

Overview

The Gospel Coalition 2022 Book Award Winner (Academic Theology)

Southwestern Journal of Theology 2022 Book Award (Honorable Mention, Hermeneutics/Bible Reference/Biblical Backgrounds)

Two experts in exegesis and dogmatics show how Christology and the doctrine of the Trinity are grounded in Scripture and how knowledge of these topics is critical for exegesis. The book outlines key theological principles and rules for the exegesis of Christian Scripture, making it an ideal textbook for hermeneutics and interpretation courses. The authors explore how the triune God revealed in Christ shapes Scripture and its readers and how doctrinal rules intrinsic to Scripture help guide exegesis.
