This essay considers four recent contributions to the field of theological hermeneutics in relation to reading the Bible as Christian Scripture. All four contributions are found to be helpful, and Sarisky's Modern Readings could serve as an excellent MA textbook. The three monographs well model the practice of ressourcement, although they do not engage with the differences that gender issues and renewed appreciation of Jewish interpretations might make.
