The Sacred Scripture, the soul of theology and the inspiration of the christian existence

Abstract

Thanks to Dei Verbum, the Sacred Scripture became the soul of Theology. Fifty years later, due in its most part to the epistemological statute that claims and defends Biblical science, things are not so clear. In order to overcome this shortcoming, according to the author, the Bible should maintain its historical dimension within the Church, respecting its hermeneutical dimension and assuming the theological dimension, the one that «takes in human words as a Divine Revelation».
