This book offers an overview of how the Church Fathers used and intepretated biblical texts. It brings together a range of different Christian confessional and social perspectives to explore the biblical basis and impact of their thinking. The contributors cover different ages and traditions, with each chapter focusing on a specific individual and theme. The book takes an ecumenical approach to the relationship between the Church Fathers and Holy Scripture and fosters a better understanding of the relationship between Christian tradition and the Bible. It will be of interest to scholars of Christian theology, the history of Christianity, biblical studies and patristics.

Nicu Dumitraşcu is Professor of Patristics, Mission and Ecumenism in the Faculty of Orthodox Theology "Episcop Dr. Vasile Coman" at the University of Oradea, Romania. His previous book with Routledge is Basil the Great: Faith, Mission and Diplomacy in the Shaping of Christian Doctrine (2018).
