Summary/Abstract: The article presents the relations of the Bible and theology in the Middle Ages, especially in the context of the exegetical achievements of the School of St. Viktor and Saint Thomas Aquinas. Understanding the interpretation techniques of the Holy Scriptures, the role of analysis and synthesis, text divisions, paraphrases or intrabiblical quotes demonstrate the role of theology in its relationship to the Scriptures: it helps to bring out and build a coherent exposition of faith, contributing to a deeper understanding of the truth. At the same time, the Scripture is a source for medieval theology, being organically connected with it.
