Darren Sarisky is currently Departmental Lecturer in Modern Theology at the Faculty of Theology and Religion, University of Oxford. His publications on scriptural interpretation include Theology, History, and Biblical Interpretation: Modern Readings (2015) and Scriptural Interpretation: A Theological Exploration, Challenges in Contemporary Theology (2013).
'Sarisky's account of reading the Bible theologically is rich and
textured, and it reflects some important points that are becoming
common across a range of contemporary thinkers. Attention not only
to texts but to readers and contexts as well is clearly articulated
in this constructive account.' Myk Habets, Modern Theology
'... this book will go a long way toward helping scholars and
students reframe the debate, moving away from theology versus
history and thinking instead of how a historical reading of
Scripture is transformed when it is approached theologically
instead of naturalistically.' Austin Stevenson, International
Journal of Systematic Theology
