	** The Reformed Biblical theology movement in the 20th century, especially with its emphasis on [[typology]], may be seen as a first stage of the Christian side of this figural-literary interpretive renaissance. Geerhardus Vos is often considered the father of the modern resurgence in seeing Christ as the hermeneutical key and exegetical center of the entire Bible. Edmund Clowney was an influential figure, at least in academic circles, for promoting Christocentric hermeneutics, while books by Graeme Goldsworthy and John R. Cross made some inroads with a broader lay audience.		** The Reformed Biblical theology movement in the 20th century, especially with its emphasis on [[typology]], may be seen as a first stage of the Christian side of this figural-literary interpretive renaissance.

	** The fact that this list of Evangelical authors is heavily Reformed(-leaning) is not random or mere bias on the part of the contributors. The classic Dispensationalist historical-grammatical method strongly commits to a single, stable, authorially anchored meaning in the text (with future referential fulfillment in the case of prophecy), which in many ways is diametrically at odds with this renaissance. Relatively sympathetic figures might include progressive dispensationalism pioneer Darrel Bock (as a contributor to Carson and Beale's ''Commentary on the NT Use of the OT'') and Buist Fanning (esp. his ''Revelation'' commentary).

One interesting upshot is that within the renaissance which this page concerns, a subset of the traditionally supercessionist camp of Christians — without the accompaniment of their Zionist-friendly brethren — has found a common touchpoint with certain modern Orthodox Jews and their ancient Rabbinic heritage!
