Gerald O'Collins begins by examining classical views of inspiration expounded by Karl Barth and Raymond Collins. He takes up the inspired origin of the Old Testament, where earlier books helped to inspire later books, before moving to the New Testament, which throughout shows the inspiring impact of the inherited Scriptures--both in direct citations and in many echoes. The work then investigates the Bible's inspiring influence on Christian worship, preaching, teaching, the visual arts, literature, and life. After a chapter that clarifies the interrelationship between divine revelation, tradition, and inspiration, two chapters expound ten characteristics of biblical inspiration, with special emphasis on the inspiring quality of the Bible. O'Collins explains a major consequence of inspiration, biblical truth, and the grounds on which the Church 'canonized' the Scriptures. After spelling out three approaches to biblical interpretation (the authorial intention, the role of readers, and the primacy of the text itself), the book ends by setting out ten principles for engaging theologically with the Scriptures. An epilogue highlights two achievements of the book. By carefully distinguishing inspiration from divine revelation and biblical truth, it can deliver readers from false problems. This work also underlines the inspiring effects of the Scriptures as part of the Holy Spirit's work of inspiration. 630 00 $a Bible $x Inspiration. 630 07 $a Bibel $2 gnd 630 07 $a Bible. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01356024 650 0 $a Inspiration $x Christianity. $x Christianity. 650 7 $a Inspiration. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00974230 650 7 $a Inspiration $x Christianity. $x Christianity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00974235 650 7 $a Heiliger Geist $2 gnd 650 7 $a Inspiration $2 gnd 776 08 $i Electronic version: $a O'Collins, Gerald. $t Inspiration. $b First edition. $d Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2018 $z 9780191868443 $w (OCoLC)1037913595 941 $a 1 952 $l OZAX845 $d 20240525041650.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6B25F73681D911E99AF5890297128E48 994 $a 92 $b IOOInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
