The volume present Stanley E. Porter's considered thoughts and reflections on key questions of meaning and context, addresseing the problems of biblical interpretation and how a close collaboration between hermeneutics and linguistics can help to solve them.
The chapters display Porter's work in both fields, examining how hermeneutics functions as a field in modern biblical studies, and how the quest for meaning in biblical texts is underpinned by the study of linguistics. The volume focuses on context for understanding the meanings of biblical texts. Porter suggests that linguists can learn more from the philosophical questions around meaning that hermeneuts apply in their study of biblical texts, and that there is more fruitful work to be done in the field of hermeneutics using insights from linguistics.
