The Death of Scripture and the Rise of Biblical Studies

About The Death of Scripture and the Rise of Biblical Studies

This book offers a new account of the origins of modern biblical criticism. Focusing on the scholarship of J. D. Michaelis (1717-1791), it shows how critics created a post-theological academic Bible to replace Europe's scriptural Bibles and assimilate biblical scholarship to the social goals of the Enlightenment.
