Prima Scriptura
An Introduction to New Testament Interpretation.
This engaging introduction to New Testament exegesis will appeal to seminarians
and undergraduates across the spectrum. Clayton Croy, the author of a
successful Greek textbook and an expert on biblical-studies pedagogy, provides
an accessible, holistic overview of the entire interpretive process. He argues
that while Scripture occupies a place of primary importance in guiding faith
and life, it does not do so in a vacuum. It operates in conjunction with two
thousand years of Christian tradition, Spirit-guided human reason, and
experience. Scripture's authority is therefore primary but not exclusive. Croy
begins with the preparation of the interpreter, proceeds to analysis of the
text, and concludes with appropriation of the message of Scripture in the
context of modern faith communities. He combines a step-by-step plan for
historical exegesis with substantive discussion of broader hermeneutical issues.
Prima Scriptura interacts with recent scholarship and is academically rigorous
but is written in an engaging style, incorporating anecdotes, humor, scriptural
illustrations, and examples of the practical payoff of disciplined
interpretation. Each chapter includes discussion questions and suggestions for
further reading. Professors and students in exegesis and hermeneutics courses
will value this work.
Croy provides a clear and sufficient guide to the art of asking good " questions of the biblical text and of finding reliable answers, laying a solid
foundation for the practice of a wide range of exegetical skills and the
development of a sound hermeneutical model. His driving interest is to equip
students to interpret Scripture in order to practice its truth in every sphere
of life--from the personal to the political, from the individual to the
international--fulfilling Johannes Bengel's vision for biblical interpretation:
apply yourself fully to the text, and apply the text fully to yourself. I look
forward to using it in my own classroom. - David A. deSilva"
