Requirements for Participation

Theological Interpretation of Scripture


Program Unit Type: Group
Accepting Papers? No

Call For Papers: For 2009, the Group has planned two sessions: (1) Romans as Christian Theology: Without denying the obvious occasional character of Romans or its particular features (rhetorical, political, etc.), this session considers Romans as both an example of and a source for Christian theology. (2) The “Rule of Faith”: Relic, Refuge, or Resource? As advocates for theological and canonical methods of biblical interpretation have gained a greater hearing, the ancient church’s “rule of faith,” variously elaborated by early theologians such as Irenaeus and Tertullian, has received increased attention. What can be learned from this “rule” for those engaged in theological interpretation of Christian Scripture? Papers for these two sessions have already been solicited. Persons interested in announcements regarding the work of the Group, or with ideas for future sessions should contact the program unit chair, Joel Green (jbgreen@fuller.edu).
