Inspiration Under Fire: The Battle Over Scripture's Authority in Modern Scholarship examines the rise of modern philosophical hermeneutics and its challenge to the authority of the Bible. Tracing influential thinkers such as Schleiermacher, Bultmann, Heidegger, and others, Norman Mathers demonstrates how modern interpretation often replaces the objective meaning of Scripture with subjective theories.
The book contrasts these approaches with the literal, grammatical, and historical method used by Christ, the apostles, and the early church. This scholarly work defends the inspiration, reliability, and authority of the Bible for today's Christian reader.
