Biblical Interpretation and Philosophical Hermeneutics

by Bradley H. McLean, B.H. McLean

In response to the crisis of nihilism in contemporary biblical studies, McLean argues that philosophical hermeneutics provides an alternative to traditional historically oriented approaches to biblical interpretation. Using basic principles drawn from major philosophers' writings, he proposes a new 'post-historical' mode of hermeneutic inquiry for use in studying biblical texts.

Publisher Description

This book applies philosophical hermeneutics to biblical studies. Whereas traditional studies of the Bible limit their analysis to the exploration of the texts' original historical sense, this book discusses how to move beyond these issues to a consideration of biblical texts' existential significance for the present. In response to the rejection of biblical significance in the late nineteenth century and the accompanying crisis of nihilism, B. H. McLean argues that the philosophical thought of Heidegger, Bultmann, Gadamer, Habermas, Ricoeur, Levinas, Deleuze, and Guattari provides an alternative to historically oriented approaches to biblical interpretation. He uses basic principles drawn from these philosophers' writings to create a framework for a new post-historical mode of hermeneutic inquiry that transcends the subject-based epistemological structure of historical positivism.

Review

'Illustrations and examples serve to lighten and enlighten the argument.' Church Times Advance Praise: "Prof. McLean has written a well conceived, creative, and insightful book exploring problems in philosophical hermeneutics as they bear on biblical interpretation. Readers will find an excellent survey of key themes and major thinkers in continental philosophy over the past century as well as a compelling argument for a 'post-historical' approach to understanding the Bible that moves outside the orbit of the sovereign subject and the lure of historical objectivism. I heartily recommend the book as essential reading for those in religious studies, theology, and biblical studies alike." - Thomas Reynolds, Emmanuel College in Victoria University of the University of Toronto, author of The Broken Whole: Philosophical Steps toward a Theology of Global Solidarity "Do not be lulled by the title of this book into imagining a set of sedate waltzes with an altogether predictable set of dance partners. The 'embodied' biblical hermeneutic to which the book builds up, a productively disorienting whirl with Deleuze and Guattari, is unlike any previously articulated." - Stephen D. Moore, The Theological School, Drew University, author of The Bible in Theory: Critical and Postcritical Essays and co-author of The Invention of the Biblical Scholar "Mining the hermeneutic riches of Continental philosophy (Heidegger, Gadamer, Habermas, Foucault, Ricoeur, Levinas, Deleuze and Guattari, and so on), Biblical Interpretation and Philosophical Hermeneutics is an inspired plea to move beyond the Enlightenment myth of objective biblical interpretation and focus forthrightly on the biblical text's existential, ethical significance for building a community in quest of justice. Rather than seeing biblical interpretation as fundamentally the search for explanation and final objectivity (in regard to a text's sociohistorical referents, its author's intentions, and its language), biblical exegesis is turned into a spiritual exercise: an open-ended prayerful, nomadic, Abraham-like quest for wisdom and personal transformation, in ethical solidarity with and accountability to others. This is an inspiring book for those who, loving the questions about the biblical text, desire to 'live' them more deeply!" - James H. Olthuis, Emeritus Professor of Philosophical Theology, Institute for Christian Studies "His knowledge of the history of biblical interpretation and philosophical hermeneutics and their relationship, unfolds masterfully in this volume." --V. M. Ehret, Choice
