The Word of God in the Ethics of Jacques Ellul originated (1979) as one of the first PhD dissertations on the thought of French sociologist and theologian Jacques Ellul (1912-94), author of some sixty volumes on the nature and impact of modern technology and on Christian ethics. Ethicist David Gill studied with Ellul and devoted his own career to an exploration of how Jesus and Scripture can bring the Word of God to our contemporary world, especially to our work and technology. More recently Jacques Ellul and the Bible: Toward a Hermeneutic of Freedom, edited by Jacob Marques Rollison (Wipf & Stock, 2020), including an essay by David Gill, adds fresh insight to this critical topic.
