This book explores Sren Kierkegaard's fourteen discourses on the Sermon on the Mount text on the birds and lilies and worry (Mt. 6:24-34). The author situates the discourses in their historical setting, interacts with recent scholarship on the material, and focuses attention on Kierkegaard's creative, theological, and pastoral exegesis. Additionally, the book highlights how Kierkegaard's interpretation converges with themes found in his larger works and his critique of 19th century Danish Christianity. A Kierkegaardian commentary on the text emerges that leads into a description of Kierkegaard's methods of biblical interpretation and the discourses' affinities with the writings of Martin Luther. The conclusions about the style and legacy of Kierkegaard as commentator break fresh ground in his relationship to the Bible, biblical scholarship, and spiritual theology.
