Pope Benedict XVI on How to Read the Bible

by Bishop Robert Barron | April 16, 2011 12:00 am

Editor’s Note: In Pope Benedict’s first two volumes of Jesus of Nazareth, he shares his personal thoughts on the methods of reading the bible and speaks at length on the historical-critical method – how it can benefit us, but also, he warns of its limitations and how it can be misused. Fr. Barron looks at what we can learn from Pope Benedict XVI in terms of how we read the bible.

Watch and listen to the Fr. Barron’s commentary…
