Abstract:
While the inspiration of the Bible is central to Christian faith, there is no general agreement about its nature. Reviewing seven major evangelical theories of biblical inspiration, Kern Robert Trembath proposes a new definition--that inspiration is "a mediated enhancement of human experience by God, through the Bible"--and argues that this new understanding is most compatible with a Thomistic doctrine of God.
