"This learned, important, and stimulating work will be invaluable to all concerned to formulate and foster the authority of Scripture in today's church. It makes available a rich range of resources for all concerned to reclaim, rediscover, and re-present Scripture as the revealed word of God." Alister E. McGrath Oxford University "John Goldingay has given us a richly textured study of scriptural models that reflect the Bible's own language and usage. The author has mastered a vast literature on contemporary discussions of Scripture and cut through current controversies by focusing on several scriptural models and the implications each holds for various types of biblical writings.... This book is a splendid achievement. It will provide much-needed future guidance for discussions about the nature of Scripture and the most appropriate ways of describing it." Donald K. McKim Memphis Theological Seminary "No issue is of more importance for the church at this time than that of understanding how its Scriptures are 'authority, ' 'canon, ' and 'revelation.' Taking a fresh approach to the questions by utilizing the biblical materials themselves, this book can aid the church in thinking through and formulating that important understanding. Elizabeth Achtemeier Union Theological Seminary in Virginia "A study of the doctrine of Scripture that moves us decisively beyond both the old defensive conservatism and the old rationalistic liberalism has long been urgently needed. John Goldingay has provided it." Richard Bauckham
