Abstract:
, Paul Ricoeur suggested that the opposition between history and fiction in modern and contemporary biblical studies could be mitigated by interweaving history and fiction. Although Ricoeur put forward these ideas as a means of discussing the dialectical relationships between time and narrative, he did not apply the idea to biblical research. This paper draws on Ricoeur’s ideas to reconsider the relations between narrative meaning and historical reference in biblical narratives.
