Sinopsis

This volume explores the political character of premodern and modern readings of scripture with attention to how these relate to or address political challenges in social and historical contexts. Essays here also offer constructive models of reading scripture that can inform the contemporary task of political scriptural interpretation. From the earliest Christian centuries to the present day, this volume considers the close coordination between scripture, theology, and social and political concerns, providing a robust survey of Christian theopolitical scripture interpretation.
