Omschrijving
A collection of essays exploring the variety and complexity of biblical interpretation and practice among early awakened Protestants, providing insight into the history of the Bible and the entangled religious cultures of the eighteenth-century North Atlantic world.
“The Bible in Early Transatlantic Pietism and Evangelicalism is a pioneering work for its thorough exploitation of primary sources revealing how major Pietist and evangelical figures (and others less well known) approached the Bible—sustaining some traditions from earlier Protestantism, responding in part to the intellectual conventions of the Enlightenment, but also promoting innovations of enduring significance in using Scripture.”
—Mark Noll,author of Protestantism: A Very Short Introduction
“The essays in The Bible in Early Transatlantic Pietism and Evangelicalism take a creative and to some extent new or overlooked approach to the relationship between the two diverse, though often parallel, faith traditions, Pietist and evangelical, viewed in transatlantic connection.”
—Bill Leonard,author of A Sense of the Heart: Christian Religious Experience in the U.S.
