The Bible in Orthodox Christianity
Abstract
This article synthesizes the salient themes of the current handbook. The four sections of the article deal with matters that have an important impact on Orthodox biblical hermeneutics. The first theme, the all-encompassing, life-like “Tradition” is treated in its relationship with Scripture, whose centrality within the former has always been celebrated. The second theme, biblical “text,” is described in its fluidity and pluriformity. The Orthodox church has never codified the Septuagint or any other textual witnesses as its authoritative text. The third theme, “canon,” underlines the open-endedness of the Orthodox biblical canon with its special section of anaginoskōmena “readable [books].” The fourth theme, “Orthodox hermeneutics,” deals with the ongoing process of recontextualization of Tradition by which Orthodox biblical scholars seek to strike a balance between Tradition, especially patristic exegesis, and modern biblical approaches.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
