Résumé
--
This study aims to justify and to deepen the dogmatic declarations of Vatican II, which claim that the Sacred Scriptures are truly the soul of theology. To achieve this, the author first of all establishes how theology, in order to remain faithful to its purpose, proceeds from the divine Revelation of the Scriptures. For, as the council clearly states, 'Sacred theology rests on the written Word of God, together with sacred tradition, as its primary and perpetual foundation.' ('Dei Verbum' 24, 1). Thus theology's permanent foundation, i.e. indispensable and necessary, is the written Word of God. In that Word, theology 'scrutinizes in the light of faith all truth stored up in the mystery of Christ' (ibid.). So, according to the Council, there is no authentic theology outside the inspirational and objectivizing principle which is the Word of God, as written in the Sacred Scriptures. Moreover, that essential and fundamental reference to the Scriptures is corroborated by their very nature which, according to the Fathers of the council, is the truth of God, revealed in the mystery of Christ. The Scriptures may be called the Word of God, for they are a true testimony of divine truth of the Word made Flesh. Let us also mention that in response to the pre-council debate on the relation between the Scriptures and Tradition, 'Dei Verbum' states that, 'like' and 'together with' the Scriptures, the Sacred Tradition is inhabited by the Word of God. The same text affirms the inseparability between the two instances (or modalities) which the council recognized as being the two principal channels for one unique source, which is divine Revelation."
