Evans).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy the conclusion, Webb has introduced and developed a \"redemptive hermeneutic\" that can be applied to many issues that cause similar dilemmas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDarrel L. Bock writes in the foreword to Webb's work, \"His goal is not only to discuss how these groups are to be seen in light of Scriptures but to make a case for a specific hermeneutical approach to reading these texts. . . . This book not only advances a discussion of the topics, but it also takes a markedly new direction toward establishing common ground where possible, potentially breaking down certain walls of hostility within the evangelical community.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDarrell L.
