INST-605 Intercultural Biblical Hermeneutics

This course develops students' awareness of the irreducible contextuality of scripture and its interpretation. Students will be guided to articulate and reflect upon their own cultural embeddedness while being exposed to theories and practices of intercultural hermeneutics. Themes will include the missiological aims of biblical texts, the cultural diversity within scripture and church history, and the "trialogue" among the Bible and readers of different cultures.
