Recently, I picked up one of my
old text books — from the only religion course I took on the subject — and
reread the chapters about Luther and Calvin, so it's fresh in my mind.
Within the Scriptures themselves, both the
Old and the New Testaments, we see ample evidence of new interpretations and
rereading of the more ancient
texts, recognition of different forms and styles, even a retelling of the same events in a different way.
