David Shibley. Wheaton, IL: Tyndale House, 1973. 80 pages.

Reviewed by Vern Ratzlaff

A listing of questions and responses taken from Kenneth Taylor’s interpretation of the biblical text constitutes the basis of Answers. Shibley apparently holds to a hermeneutic that sees the biblical text as an encyclopaedia where the topics are unfortunately not alphabetically arranged, {188} and to a pedagogy that sees truth as verbally and propositionally defined. These may be interesting viewpoints, but not very helpful.
