This book is based upon the James Sprunt Lectures delivered in February 1982 at Union Theological Seminary, Richmond, Virginia, and in fact is very close to the text as then delivered, with only some additions and modifications. It was a great honour to be invited to lecture in this very distinguished series, and the lecturer benefited greatly from the stimulus of the intelligent and appreciative audience that Richmond provided.

Canonical criticism, sometimes called canon criticism or the canonical approach, is a way of interpreting the Bible that focuses on the text of the biblical canon itself as a finished product. Brevard Childs (1923-2007) popularised this approach, though he personally rejected the term. Whereas other types of biblical criticism focus on the origins, structure and history of texts, canonical criticism looks at the meaning which the overall text -in its final form - has for the community which uses it.

  • One of the best biblical and theological minds demonstrates how to think through the complex issues of biblical authority in the light of historical criticism, theological commitments, and canonical diversity. Barr is a delight to read and was a gift to both the church and academic scholarship in the study of scripture and its uses in church and society.

  • Mr. Barr has many opinions for a man with so little knowledge of the Scripture. Here is a brief list of verses that Mr. Barr is ignorant of and contradicts in his book:
    1) Luke 24:27 has Jesus revealing Himself in the Old Testament
    2) John 12:47-48 has Jesus saying that His Words will judge at the end of time
    3) Revelation 21:5 & 22:6 refer to the Bible as "Faithful and True" while Revelation 3:14 & 19:11 refer to Jesus' name as "Faithful & True."
    4) Colossians 2:8 says that "traditions of men" will conflict with Christ's words. Also Mark 7:3-9 and 1 Peter 1:18-19
    5) Romans 14 focuses on the conscience of the believer.
    Mr. Barr makes the same mistake as those of the "Judges Period" where every man did what was right in his own eyes (self-effort & Babel). You would be better off reading F.F.Bruce's The Canon of Scripture.
