Enns on Freeing Evangelical Hermeneutics from Its Modernist Captivity

My Old Testament Introduction professor, Dr. Peter Enns, in his article “Apostolic Hermeneutics and an Evangelical Doctrine of Scripture: Moving beyond a Modernist Impasse” provides a detailed argument for a view of Scriptural interpretation that I was grasping for in my post “Against a Co-opted Inerrancy.”

Disclaimer: My opinions in “Against a Co-opted Inerrancy” were entirely my own and should in no way be attributed necessarily to Dr. Enns.

    If you go on Amazon and search under “Peter Enns” there is also a Peter Enns who makes little Christian books and movies for children. I think it’s hilarious and have been meaning to ask/pick on Pete about it.

    Justin,

    Perhaps if he forgets his lecture Powerpoint some day, we can ask to see some of those movies instead ;-)
