'Gods word examines critically the reflections and thoughts of a heart. It is this function of Scripture that Bennett and Rowland explore in this highly creative book the role the Bible plays in our learning to be critically reflective. Through an imaginative engagement with apocalyptic and its unmaskings, insights from John Ruskin and William Blake, and moving autobiographical reflections, In a Glass Darkly provokes the reader to examine their assumptions as to how the text of the Bible and life interact. It will certainly rouse the faculties of the reader as the authors intend.' -- Andrew Rogers, University of Roehampton, UK This book commends itself not only as the fruits of a particular collaboration between two leading figures in their respective fields, but as testimony to us all of the unique possibilities of friendship within intellectual life. -- Elaine Graham
