New Series: Responses to Some General Criticisms of I&I
Posted on August 19th, 2008 by Pete Enns
Introduction
Over the past few months I have given some thought about how to continue the dialogue over the issues articulated in I&I (Inspiration and Incarnation: Evangelicals and the Problem of the Old Testament, Baker 2005). During that time there have been a few responses circulating the cyber-world, print publications, not to mention numerous extended conversations on various blogs.
I thought it might be both efficient and somewhat less tedious to summarize what I see as being the main themes of criticism I have read, rather than responding at length to each critique. This is fair, I think, since the same general thoughts tend to surface. Also, the longer responses I have written (Beale, Helm, Pratt) deal with many of the main issues.
