In response to the crisis of nihilism in contemporary biblical studies, McLean argues that philosophical hermeneutics provides an alternative to traditional historically oriented approaches to biblical interpretation. Using basic principles drawn from major philosophers' writings, he proposes a new 'post-historical' mode of hermeneutic inquiry for use in studying biblical texts.
