This volume examines the Bible's role in the modern world - beginning with a treatment of its production and distribution that discusses publishers, printers, text critics, and translators and continuing with a presentation of new methods of studying the text that have emerged, including historical, literary, social-scientific, feminist, postcolonial, liberal, and fundamentalist readings. There is a full discussion of the changes in understandings of and approaches to the Bible in various faith communities. The dissemination of the Bible throughout the globe has also produced a host of new interpretations, and this volume provides a comprehensive geographical survey of its reception. In the final chapters, the authors offer a thematic overview of the Bible in relation to literature, art, film, science, and other disciplines. They demonstrate that, in spite of challenges to the Bible's authority in western Europe, it remains highly relevant and influential, not least in the Americas, Africa, and Asia.

Pourquoi une telle violence dans la Bible, tant d'êtres brutaux au fil de ses pages? Pourquoi souvent son Dieu ne cède-t-il en rien aux hommes sur ce plan? La présence massive de la violence, en particulier dans le premier Testament, dérange en effet. A cause d'elle, d'aucuns voudraient que les croyants renvoient ce livre aux oubliettes de l'Histoire, comme un sombre témoignage du potentiel destructeur que constitue toute religion. Et des chrétiens préfèrent ignorer des pans entiers de ce livre, pourtant au centre de leur foi, indispensable pour saisir le message du Nouveau Testament. Bibliste de renom, André Wénin répond à cette critique: tout le paradoxe de la sagesse de la Bible est justement d'indiquer à l'humanité des impasses à éviter, en premier lieu la violence. Pour cela, il lui faut cultiver la justice et, lorsque celle-ci connaît des dérives, aller plus loin, vers la fraternité, la sagesse véritable. Car le Dieu de la Bible ne veut pas le malheur de l'homme, mais sa vie et son épanouissement.

Arnold presents the first systematic study of the early biblical and exegetical writings from Schelling’s schooldays and years of study in Tübingen (1787–1795) and puts them in the context of the complex history of problems in the late Enlightenment. Apart from the general challenge of theology due to Kant’s reception, debates on basic principles regarding authenticity and and the Bible’s claim to divine authority had begun. Arnold shows that Schelling studied these controversies very closely and developed them into his own hermeneutic methodology. Schelling’s theory of interpreting the Scriptures, of the Christian religion and of the concept of faith, developed as a result of these studies, is also significant for understanding his later works on the history of philosophy and moral philosophy. Mit diesem Band liegt die erste systematische Untersuchung der frühen biblisch-exegetischen Schriften aus Schellings Schul- und Tübinger Studienzeit (1787–1795) vor. Diese Schriften stellt Arnold in den Horizont der komplexen Problemgeschichte der Spätaufklärung: Neben der generellen Herausforderung der Theologie durch die Rezeption Kants waren im Vorfeld Grundsatzdebatten zur Authentizität und zum göttlichen Autoritätsanspruch der Bibel aufgebrochen. Dabei zeigt Arnold, dass Schelling diese Kontroversen intensiv rezipiert und zu einer eigenen hermeneutischen Methodik ausgearbeitet hat. Schellings aus dieser Auseinandersetzung entwickelte Theorie der Schriftinterpretation, der christlichen Religion und des Glaubensbegriffs ist gerade auch für das Verständnis seines späteren geschichts- und moralphilosophischen Œuvres bedeutsam.
