5.0 out of 5 stars
A nuanced exploration of scripture's authority as relational,
By Suzanne Smith "Sooze" (NYC, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Women and the Authority of Scripture: A Narrative Approach (Paperback)
Today when the authority of scriptures across religions is being touted as the reason why a people must go to war, Lancaster's book could hardly be more timely. Although she writes specifically to engage some feminists' tendency to locate authority in the subject, her work has much broader application. After grappling with the concept of revelation, she launches into an extensive analysis of authority based on the work of philosopher Richard T DeGeorge. A feminist herself, Lancaster, sensitively navigates the twin shoals of absolutism and relativism and anchors the reader in a compelling appreciation of scripture's unique authority. A must read by anyone who sees this issue as central to what is going on in today's world.
