The author has treated Joseph Ratzinger’s – Benedict XVI’s writings as a particular’ exegetic will’ to be read and used In the contemporary exegesis. The Pope formed his thoughts from both the position of a believer holding important oi ces within the Church,and from the position of a researcher. According to the Bavarian theologian, hermeneutics of faith is the most appropriate hermeneutics to be accepted by historical/critical method. The author of the article notices that the Pope’s contribution is not merely recalling the earlier exegetic directions and is not the call for a balance in using scientii c and theological methods in the interpretation of the Bible. It is something more – a call for a synthesis of a historical/critical method and hermeneutics of faith. Benedict XVI has suggested how to achieve this goal; such a synthesis should resemble the unii cation of God’s two natures In the person of the Son of God (without mingling and separating)
