Reflecting the methodological shift in the reading of biblical
texts that has evolved over some years, the focus is on
understanding the New Testament message and not on the origins and
prehistory of the text. The contribution of other disciplines such
as communication science, linguistics, as well as literary and
sociological studies to biblical exegesis also receives thorough
attention. The fifteen chapters move from theory to the process of
explaining and understanding texts, including contributions on
hermeneutics, textual and redaction criticism, discourse analysis,
narrative criticism, reception criticism, speech act analysis and
rhetorical criticism and concludes with a chapter on Bible
translation studies. Numerous diagrams and examples are included to
illustrate theoretical concepts and extensive bibliographies refer
the reader to recent as well as classic publications on the various
topics.The contributors are, in addition to our editor, South
African academics that have published internationally on New
Testament exegesis: Bernard Lategan, Johannes Vorster, Herman du
Toit, G.J.A. Jordaan, Andries van Aarde, Jan van der Watt, Stephan
Joubert, Bernard Combrink, Eugene Botha and John Roberts.
