The purpose of the Library of
Biblical Theology is to bring the worlds
of biblical scholarship and constructive
theology together. It will do so by
reviving biblical theology as a
discipline that describes the faith of
the biblical periods on the one hand,
and on the other hand articulates
normative understandings of modern faith
and practice. Thus, volumes in the
series will move froma description of
God or an element relating to God as it
is found in the biblical text, to making
a theological judgment based on one's
own contemporary worldview, forged
within a community of faith.
