The question of how to interpret scripture and whether there is a
distinctively Anglican approach to doing so is one of the leading
theological questions in the Anglican Communion. "An Anglican
Hermeneutic of the Transfiguration" analyzes major Anglican
interpretations of the Transfiguration from the eighth century to
the present and suggests that Anglicans do in fact have a
distinctive hermeneutical approach to this event. Moreover, this
approach may point to larger trends in the interpretation of
Scripture overall, but especially the Gospels. With respect to the
Transfiguration, Anglicans interpret the event within the biblical
context, assume its basic historic character, and juxtapose high
Christology with the human limitations of Jesus self-understanding.
Furthermore, Anglicans draw pastoral implications for the lives of
Jesus and the disciples from the Transfiguration and assert that
the glory manifested on the mountain supports a partially realized
eschatology. Finally, Anglicans write for well-educated,
non-specialists in theology.
