Reading the Bible Theologically

Book •
Darren Sureski's 'Reading the Bible Theologically' proposes an approach that integrates theological concerns with historical reading practices.

Sureski argues for a 'proper view of historical distance' that recognises readers across history participate in a single economy of salvation, linking ancient and modern interpreters.

The book aims to bridge the divide between purely historical-critical methods and confessional theological reading, suggesting that theological commitments can responsibly inform interpretation.

It addresses methodological tensions and offers constructive guidance for scholars and pastors seeking a theologically attentive exegesis.

The work contributes to debates about the relationship between history and theology in biblical studies.
