The article invites a reconsideration of our reflection on revelation in the light of both Frederick Crowe’s achievement in his Theology of the Christian Word and Vatican II’s call for a pastoral and ecumenical theology. Crowe’s text invites us to shift from a reflection on concepts of revelation to a reflection based on interiority. Such an approach opens new avenues for a hermeneutical reflection on revelation on behalf of ecclesial self-understanding and agency in history.
