ARENS KUCKELKORN, Eduardo. Rethinking Biblical Inspiration: Observations and Reflections. Theol. Xave. [online]. 2012, vol.62, n.174, pp.289-318. ISSN 0120-3649.

Inspiration is a fundamental topic of Theology. In communication and linguistic studies, particularly those about critical exegesis, speaking about inspiration is not as simple as it used to be. Many factors are to be considered^, including both verbal transmission and later written transmission and its vicissitudes. these factors do not support the traditional explanations. Who was inspired? What makes biblical inspiration distinct? What does it encompass? these and other questions are addressed in this article that invites to rethink the notion of inspiration with respect to the Bible.

Keywords : Hermeneutics; interpretation; exegesis; Scripture; revelation.
