Tabernacle, Table, Ark, and Text. Richard of Saint Victor on the Interpretation of Scripture
, Brepols, 2026 Paperback, Pages: 234, Size:156 x 234 mm, Languages: English, Latin. ISBN 9782503623788.
Summary Richard of Saint Victor (d. 1173) is widely recognized for his commentaries on the spiritual senses of Scripture and for his theological contributions to Trinitarian doctrine, the Christian life, and contemplation. This study highlights two additional and often overlooked dimensions of his thought: his sustained reflections on the art of biblical interpretation, both literal and spiritual, and his detailed interpretations of the Mosaic Tabernacle in the desert and its contents. It presents improved Latin texts, together with English translations, of Richard's Literal Explanation of the Tabernacle and his Allegories on the same subject. The result is a fresh appreciation of Richard's interest in the literal meaning of the Old Testament's sacred architecture, and of his theory and practice of biblical interpretation.
