of the use and meaning of the terms, “Bible” and “biblical.” It
highlights not only the differing, contrasting, and even opposing ways
in which the terms “Bible” and “biblical” are used in scholarly
discourse but engages scholars from various countries with different
religious orientations and from different schools of thought in
reflections on the terms at hand from their particular perspectives. The
contributions highlight the key differences between Jewish and Christian
understandings of Bible and canon. Bible and biblical are theological
concepts, not historical or linguistic ones. The language of “Bible” and
“biblical” is appropriate and indeed necessary in theological discourses
but should be avoided in historical, archaeological, or linguistic
contexts.
