Summary

Richard Swinburne investigates the general philosophical issue of how eternal truth can be conveyed in unfamiliar genres of poetry or parable, by analogy and metaphor, within false presuppositions about science and history. Part II considers the general question of what would show that some book or creed conveys revealed truth; and Part III considers what would show that the Christian Creeds and Bible convey revealed truth
