The enduring value of The Bible in Politics is that it teaches the reader how to read the Bible politically and to gain an understanding of the social relevance of the Bible that is more disciplined, more informed, more imaginative, and more politically fruitful than many interpreters--past and present--have achieved.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Richard Bauckham</note> <subject> <topic>Sociology, Biblical</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Criticism and Interpretation</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible Hermeneutics</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Christianity and politics</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">220.8</classification> <classification authority="ddc">B337-R51</classification> <identifier type="isbn">0664250882</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15488/8.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15488/8.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071503.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
