Part 1 -- Retrospect. 1 Biblical psychology -- the early church to the early twentieth century. 2 Freud and Jung -- psychoanalysis and the Bible since 1900. 3 Psychological biblical criticism in the twentieth century. Part 2 -- Prospect. 4 What is psychological biblical criticism? Definition and model. 5 The exegetical agenda -- the world of the text. 6 The hermeneutical agenda -- between text and reader
'The first section is an inclusive survey of the diverse psychological approaches to Scripture: from precursors in the early church to the developed approaches of the present. The implications of the researches of Freud, Jung, and the post-Freudians for biblical studies are carefully explored, along with studies of biblical scholars who have employed psychological approaches. Rollins seeks to establish an agenda for psychological criticism as a discipline within biblical studies.'
