In \u003ci\u003eParticipatory Biblical Exegesis\u003c\/i\u003e, Matthew Levering examines the changing views of history that distinguish patristic and medieval biblical exegesis from modern historical-critical exegesis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLevering argues for a delicate interpretive balance, in which history is understood both as a process that participates in God's creative and redemptive presence and as a set of linear moments. He identifies a split between theological and historical interpretations of scripture beginning in the high Middle Ages, considerably earlier than the emergence of historical-critical methods in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Instead, he offers a vision of Scripture that is rooted in the exegetical practice of St. Thomas Aquinas and his sources but embraces historical-critical research as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eParticipatory Biblical Exegesis\u003c\/i\u003e provides an original theological basis for critical exegesis.
