Description
In Taught by God, historical theologian and New Testament scholar Brandon D. Smith invites evangelicals to rediscover the early church’s approach to Bible interpretation, not just as a historical relic but as a vibrant means of understanding the Bible today. Chapters devoted to each of fourfold senses the earliest believers saw in Scripture—literal, spiritual, moral, and anagogical—introduce the respective sense, provide historical examples and guidance on how to employ it responsibly, and demonstrate its use on sample passages.
