Description
In The Enduring Authority of the Christian Scriptures thirty-seven first-rate evangelical scholars present a thorough study of biblical authority and a full range of issues connected to it. Recognizing that Scripture and its authority are now being both challenged and defended with renewed vigor, editor D. A. Carson assigned the topics that these select scholars address in the book. After an introduction by Carson to the many facets of the current discussion, the contributors present robust essays on relevant historical, biblical, theological, philosophical, epistemological, and comparative-religions topics. To conclude, Carson answers a number of frequently asked questions about the nature of Scripture, providing cross-references to the preceding chapters.This comprehensive volume by a team of recognized experts will be the go-to reference on the nature and authority of the Bible for years to come.

Reviews
The truth is clear that D. A. Carson has edited an important text ... every university and seminary library should have a copy of this book. In fact, every serious student of the Bible stands to benefit from the chapters of this book. Therefore, I commend this book to you. Read it and wrestle through the arguments, but do so with your Bible close at hand. -- Stephen Campbell * Shepherd's Theological Seminary *
What Carson and his team have achieved here is quite remarkable, and to my knowledge, unprecedented. The first strength I've noted is how widely the book ranges. The quality of the contributors is remarkable, and time and again Carson has produced the best evangelical expert, writing at the top of their game. Dozens of questions that I began to realise had niggled at me, unaddressed, from the corner of my mind, are brought out and dealt with. If you do take the trouble, a little at a time, to read through, you will have your head cleared in a most remarkable way. -- Chris Green * Ministrynutsandbolts.com blog *
