Thinking about the inspiration and truth of Sacred Scripture is an indispensable topic in almost every period of church teaching and theology. The first part of the article discusses the nature of inspiration and how it is interpreted, pointing to its broader understanding in later church documents: the Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation of the Second Vatican Council, Dei Verbum, and especially the 2014 document of the Pontifical Biblical Commission entitled The Inspiration and Truth of Sacred Scripture. The Word That Comes from God and Speaks of God for the Salvation of the World. The article points to the importance of inspiration as a carrying term for understanding the sacred text as truly the word of God in words of people. The truth of Sacred Scripture is inextricably linked to this reality. In the second part, the article clarifies that the truth we should seek in Scripture and for which it exists is the truth written in it for our salvation, thereby expressing a positive view about the topic of the truth of Scripture. The entirety of this truth is summarized and fully uttered in the person of Jesus Christ, the Father’s revelator and Savior of mankind. Inspiration proves to be a convenient avenue for communicating this truth.
