About

The
Journal
of Philosophy and Scripture is an e-journal dedicated to reading
scripture in light of philosophy and to examining philosophy in light
of scripture. The Journal's task is informed by three primary aims:
(1) to encourage philosophical
discussions of religion to attend to the primary sacred texts (e.g.
the Bible, the Qur'an, the Bhagavad-Gita) that fundamentally shape
the religions under discussion,
(2) to encourage
a process of mutual reflection by means of which both philosophy
and scripture may be more clearly illuminated, and
(3) to do
the above with a keen eye to possible effects on the ways in which
we practice philosophy and religion.
JPS
is committed to fostering discussion involving a wide range of philosophical
perspectives and religious traditions. We are especially interested
in papers that engage directly with specific passages of scripture,
but we also welcome papers that deal with general issues relating
to the intersection of philosophy and scripture.
JPS
is a journal created and edited by graduate students in
philosophy at Villanova University.
