This is a work of meticulous scholarship, superb clarity, and compelling insight. It traces not only what Bonhoeffer says about the Bible, but what he does with the text as he reads it – displaying what it means for Bonhoeffer to read 'in the Spirit', and for the sake of others.

Any reader of Bonhoeffer's mature work will notice how readily he appeals to and engages with the biblical texts. Jameson Ross here offers an exemplary analysis of the subtle interpretative moves that lead Bonhoeffer from text to comment, together with the theological and contextual concerns that motivate them.

Moving beyond broad claims about the role of the Bible in Bonhoeffer's theology, Bonhoeffer as Biblical Interpreter offers a window into how Bonhoeffer actually read biblical texts during a critical period of his life. Through his close reading of key texts, Ross draws a whole range of cautious but perceptive insights into the specific contours of Bonhoeffer's biblical interpretation. This book is a delightful resource for Bonhoeffer scholars and those seeking a more grounded approach to understanding how a theological figure views Scripture.
