The Sense of Scripture: Studies in Interpretation

This volume from Leroy Garrett provides a degree of insight into his understanding of Scripture unparalleled in any of his other writings. While maintaining a "high view" of the Bible--affirming its inspiration and normative value--the author challenges the biblical basis of the theory of inerrancy, and extends that challenge to the hermeneutical tradition of "direct command, approved apostolic example, and necessary inference."

In the ninety-eight essays contained in this volume, the author addresses such questions as:

Is the Bible to be taken literally?
In what way is the Bible authoritative?
Are there errors in the Bible?
Are we to pray for the Holy Spirit?
Are we to fellowship the Christian Church?
Did Gandhi go to heaven?

In others essays he elaborates on such topics as:

What inspiration means and does not mean
Fallacies related to "the authority of the Bible"
Acappella music: the real issue
Especially for men: how to deal with lust
