Biblical Texts and African Contexts: Engaging Epistemologies and Comparative Approaches

Beth E. Elness-Hanson, Knut Holter, Helen Nambalirwa Nkabala, editors
 

In this volume, biblical scholars from seven countries in Africa, Scandinavia, and the United States of America focus on epistemologies and comparative approaches in African biblical hermeneutics for engaging such themes as the vulnerable, leadership, and sacraments and purity in African contexts. Africa is home to one-third of the world’s Christians, so engaging how African communities see the Bible differently can build bridges of understanding critical for flourishing in today’s multicultural world. Contributors include Tarekegn Abate Chamisso, Ntozakhe Simon Cezula, Zorodzai Dube, Beth E. Elness-Hanson, Knut Holter, Lechion Peter Kimilike, Hoyce Jacob Lyimo-Mbowe, Elia Shabani Mligo, Tina Dykesteen Nilsen, Helen Nambalirwa Nkabala, Jean de Dieu Rafalimanana, Olivier Randrianjaka, Anna Rebecca Solevåg, Kjersti Wee, and Medhat Nady Youssef.
