Receiving Scripture in the Pentecostal Tradition: A Reception History - Paperback

by Martin W. Mittelstadt (Author), Rick Wadholm Jr. (Author), Daniel D. Isgrigg (Author)

As a relatively new methodology, reception history continues to gain traction in biblical, theological, and philosophical studies. Receiving Scripture in the Pentecostal Tradition furthers the conversation with groundbreaking analysis of how the Pentecostal tradition read, interpreted, viewed, and performed Scripture. Included in this volume are twelve essays by global scholars who bring their methodological, biblical, and theological expertise to Pentecostal readings of Scripture. Each contributor documents not only how Pentecostals received the Scriptures, but also provide insights and analysis for these interpretations in their respective communities. This volume will serve as an excellent foundation for students and seasoned scholars interested in better understanding Pentecostal reception with all of its theological and hermeneutical implications.Daniel D.
