Abstract :
This introduction to a volume of essays intended to mark the 25th anniversary of the appearance of the Pontifical Biblical Commission’s document The Interpretation of the Bible in the Church contextualizes the Commission’s document historically and theologically and in doing so seeks to set forth the document as the culmination of a century of prophetically inspired, magisterial teaching intended to recover the Bible as the 'soul of theology'.



Cette introduction à un volume constitué de divers essais, destiné à marquer le 25e anniversaire de la publication du document de la Commission biblique pontificale intitulé L’interprétation de la Bible dans l’Église, contextualise ce document d’un point de vue historique et théologique et, ce faisant, cherche à le présenter comme le point culminant d’un siècle d’enseignement du magistère destiné à restituer la Bible comme «l’âme de la théologie».
