Historical handbook of major biblical interpreters - McKim, Donald K. (Downers Grove, Illinois Inter Varsity Press, 1998)
The present volume focuses on the work of many of the most significant biblical interpreters through the last two thousand years. It brings together scholarly essays that show the methods, practices and interpretive stances adopted by a number of the church's most important biblical scholars. These writers, from the early church to the present, are leading biblical interpreters by virtue of their particular approaches; the importance of their insights or their development of theological perspectives is rooted in their interpretations of scripture. Some who are included have pioneered distinctive viewpoints.
