  • More about Augustine, Rahner, and Trinitarian Exegesis: An Exploration of Augustine's Exegesis of Scripture as a Foundation for Rahner's Trinitarian Project and Rule

Through close and sustained analysis of Augustine''s exegesis of Scripture, Robinson argues that Augustine''s Trinitarian exegesis offers significant-though not inexhaustible-support for Rahner''s Trinitarian project and, particularly, his <i>Grundaxiom</i>. Firstly, he posits that Augustine provides weighty, biblically rich, support for Rahner''s Trinitarian agenda at exactly those points where Rahner is explicitly critical of Augustine and the “Augustinian-Western tradition”, overcoming various weaknesses detected in the later tradition, and pre-empting many of Rahner''s later solutions. Secondly and consequently, Robinson suggests that Augustine offers a scriptural reading strategy that addresses the major exegetical difficulties perceived to emerge from Rahner''s Rule. Thus, in Augustine''s exegesis of Scripture, the Augustinian-Western tradition has always had the resources at its disposal to avoid or address the most poignant criticisms <i>levelled</i> both by and at Rahner.
