Friday Musings–July 10

Someone may claim that the interpretation of the biblical text cannot be limited to interpreting what the human authors wrote. Ok, that’s a possibility. But even if a case can be made that a particular part of the text is God’s word in this distinct manner, it seems that it still has to be interpreted. Thus, to make this type of appeal in order to defend a view that the human authors don’t say that, but God does, is a distinction that might be difficult to support or to actually get us very far.
