Hermeneutics and the Word of God

'Probably the greatest scepticism about biblical truth today arises from the mistaken notion that you can make the Bible mean anything you like.  We must resist this by applying questions about context, genre and formation.  We must be cautious about pluralism, especially in historical report or in theology,' Anthony Thiselton, from Matthew Malcolm and Stanley Porter (eds), The Future of Biblical Interpretation (2013). This exceptional book is the result of an excellent conference held in Nottingham in honour of Anthony Thiselton last month.
