Protective Strategies and the Prestige of the âAcademicââ©
A Religious Studies and Practice Theory Redescription of Evangelical Inerrantist Scholarshipâ©
in Biblical InterpretationSearch for other papers by Stephen L. Young in
Current site
Google Scholar
This article examines how Evangelical Christian inerrantist scholars theorize their biblical scholarship and its relation to the broader academy, highlighting (1) their self-representation as true academics, and (2) the ways they modulate historical methods to prefer interpretive options that keep the Bible inerrant. Using these characteristics of inerrantist theorizing, the article redescribes their scholarship in terms of the religious studies rubrics of âprotective strategiesâ and âprivilegingâ insider claims. It then exploits this redescription to explore various characteristics of inerrantist religiosity from a Practice Theory vantage point, noting especially inerrantist religiosityâs highly intellectualized nature as well as features of its fields of discourse production and consumption, and their participants, that differentiate them from broader academic fields focused on the Bible. Overall the article thus provides a detailed positive account of inerrantist scholarship and introduces scholars to the utility of this data set for studying contemporary religiosity and religious âprotectionism.ââ©

âSee, for example, Payne 1980: 90â93; Sproul 1980: 127. The CSBI articulates the underlying principle concisely: âWe affirm that canonical Scripture should always be interpreted on the basis that it is infallible and inerrantâ (Exposition: Infallibility, Inerrancy, and Interpretation). See also Richard Schultzâs comments: âOne of the primary threats today to a traditional understanding of biblical inspiration and inerrancy is the unrestricted employment of historical-critical tools by evangelical biblical scholarsâ (Schultz 2004: 150).
