Orthodox Christianity, Patristic Exegesis, and Historical Criticism of the Bible
Abstract
The adoption of historical criticism by Orthodox Christian biblical scholars has been gradual and has not been without adversity. Rather, an emphasis on the use of patristic exegesis as normative for biblical interpretation has been stressed many times by the Orthodox Church and influential Orthodox theologians. Although the patristic exegesis of Scripture remains of vital importance in Orthodox Christianity, the use of historical criticism is a necessary and important tool in avoiding circular, repetitious, biblical interpretation that can lack creativity, insight, and relevance for contemporary Orthodox Christians.

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.
