Hi, Just getting into this book of previously published essays by Dr. Hahn.
Chapter Two is a blockbuster, giving a summary of what an appropriate Catholic interpretation of scripture would include. I don’t know, from reading what Scott says, whether there has actually been a complete Catholic (four senses) interpretation of the Bible. It doesn’t seem so, as even many scholars have become enmeshed in emphasizing the literal or the spiritual senses, and not integrating them.
This chapter slightly expands and emphasizes the approach defined by the Catechism of the Catholic Church and other modern scripture guidelines.
For serious scripture study, I would say that you need this book.
And, first, you need to pray to the Holy Spirit for guidance and blessing.
