Summary:

"John C. Poirier examines the "inspired" nature of the Scripture, as a response to the view that this "inspiration" lies at the heart of most contemporary Christian theology"-- Provided by publisher.

Contents:

Is "all Scripture...inspired"? Toward a new look at theopneustos [Greek word] in 2 Tim 3:16

Pre-Origen uses of theopneustos

Pre-Origen uses of theopneustos

Excursus on theopneustos in the Physiologus and the Cyranides

Inspirationism and the New Testament

The screw turns: theopneustos in Irenaeus, Clementof Alexandria, Tertullian, the De Universo (of Hippolytus?), and Origen

Post-Origenist traces of a vivificationist understanding of theopneustos in Nonnus of Panopolis

In Lieu of a conclusion: inspirationism's waning as a blessing in disguise - the truth of the gospel vs. the "truth" of Scripture in Evangelical and postconservative hermeneutics.
