According to Bakhtin dialogue is the essential symbolic medium through which all social relations are necessarily constituted. This must be seen against the background of a literary approach which is not comprehensive enough. There are different forms of dialogue in and with the Bible. The dialogics of the New Testament is more complex than that of the poetics of the Hebrew Bible. The New Testament develops a new form of dialogue when compared with the poetics of the Hebrew Bible. The dialogue within the Bible should also be situated in the context of intertextuality. Interpretation is also a practical affair with a political element in it. Dialogue with the Bible is not only a one way movement to the Bible, but the Bible can also contradict and surprise the reader.

Dr. Eugene Osterhaven has dedicated himself to the principle of the Reformation that all of life must be lived according to the Word of God as revealed in the Scriptures. This principle is significant not only for the life of the individual believer and the faith of the church. He also applied it to civil governments and public life. With the dissolving of transcendental foundations international law has practically disappeared and the world political picture is one of near chaos. What is needed is an adequate foundation on which a doctrine of the state can be built, one of our most urgent political tasks today. In our judgment that foundation must be derived from principles found in scripture. Here men learn that God is the Lord and that all authority and blessing derive from him. Professor Osterhaven thus stands with the whole Reformed tradition in affirming the public role of the Law of God which in the words of Calvin was recorded on "public" tablets. The Scriptures are not simply God's gift to believing individuals or the church, but to people of all ages. "And surely in this respect God has, by his singular providence, taken thought for mortals through all ages." In the Reformed tradition, the Bible as God's gift to his world is not a sectarian book.
