La bible et l'evangile
Louis Bouyer - Collection Bibliothèque du Cerf
Résumé
--
'To understand the revelation, the meaning of the Scriptures, [...] one must seek in them not just a series of concepts, but a deeper comprehension of very simple, rich truths immediately conveyed, and which make up the unity of the Divine Word. And what enables us to access this specifically religious understanding is a contemplation of the great design that unfolds throughout the Scriptures, and of the One whose countenance reveals itself therein.' The fruit of conferences given at the Catholic Institute in 1949, 'La Bible et l'Évangile' (pub. 1951, reprinted. 1953) is one of Louis Bouyer's major works. Seen alongside the great interpretive problematics which paralyse the work of Bible scholars - forced into retraction or even silence - , the assurance and freshness with which Bouyer has confronted not just one specific passage in the Holy Story, but the complex and rich corpus of the Biblical design, this book takes on a special significance. Of course, Bouyer is not speaking as an exegete his aim is to research and highlight the profound unity of the Biblical Word in order to enrich Christian spiritual life. Basing this approach on his unquestionable competence, he never dissociates himself from the problems of the critical exegesis and remains constantly attentive to contemporary research. Both Biblical scholar and theologian, Bouyer also reveals in this study the spiritual facet of a man convinced that all the wealth of God's blessing, communicated to humanity though His Word, should provide nourishment for the soul, and not just for reason and dogma.
