Details about The Letter and Spirit of Biblical Interpretation: From the Early Church to Modern Practice:
For the better part of fifteen centuries, Christians read Scripture on two complementary levels, the literal and the spiritual.

This brief, accessible introduction to the history of biblical interpretation examines key turning points and figures and argues for a retrieval of the premodern spiritual habits of reading Scripture.
