Did the Reformation unleash interpretive anarchy on the church? Kevin J. Vanhoozer answers the critics by retrieving the Reformation's own core principles. Read more.
In recent years notable scholars have argued that the Protestant Reformation unleashed interpretive anarchy on the church. Is it time to consider the Reformation a five-hundred-year experiment gone wrong? Kevin Vanhoozer thinks not.
While he grants that several of the recent critiques are legitimate, he argues that retrieving the Reformation's core principles - the five solas, read as hermeneutical commitments rather than slogans - supplies the answer to critics of Protestant biblical interpretation. Demanding in places, and among the more interesting recent books on authority. Paperback.
