Global Perspectives on Bible and Violence: Bible in the Modern World, cartea 82

Autor Michael Spalione Editat de Helen Paynter
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 mai 2023
This volume brings to the fore global perspectives, exploring the intersection between violence and biblical texts. It is the outcome of proceedings from a 2021 Centre for the Study of Bible and Violence (CSBV) conference, which had contributors and participants from sixteen nations. This is the fourth of at least five CSBV volumes, each in turn, providing resources both for researchers and in the classroom. In addition to the geographical variety of contributions, the fifteen papers in this volume also reflect a group of scholars diverse in their discipline and field of interest. Some papers involve close textual study (such as Richard Middleton's discussion of the Akedah) while others consider thematic subjects such as the contemporary problem of "Christianism" (Matthew Feldman) or the Bible's entailment in the fetishization of virginity (Johanna Stiebert). Of particular note are three contributions from African scholars. Louis Ndekha brings the Malawian practice of Mob Justice into dialogue with Luke 6:27-29. Paul Chimhungwe writes on the problematic hermeneutical approaches which have informed the Apostles of Johanne Marange of Zimbabwe, which denies Western medicine to its followers. Lodewyk Sutton studies Psalm 58 to consider whether the imprecatory language used therein might constitute part of a ritual used to overcome trauma. The CSBV is a postgraduate research and study centre dedicated to working in the twin areas of the interpretation of biblical violence and the weaponization of the Bible.
