In 14 contributions to the theme of Holy Scripture and (its) holiness, this book provides insight into the complex field of theological hermeneutics and the related question of the holiness of Scripture from Protestant, Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Jewish and Islamic perspectives. The discussion in this book helps to establish a reasoned and reflective approach to holiness and sacred texts, both within Christianity as well as interreligiously. It is precisely when sacred texts are not simply viewed from a secular standpoint, on the one hand, or completely within a separate sacralised reality on the other, that the holiness of these texts can be preserved and these texts can be understood as relevant for society.
