Biblical hermeneutics – how to read and understand Biblical passages – become even more contested when such passages are read inter-culturally, and about contested personal and social issues, like Jesus’ words on forgiveness in Matthew 18. Empirical studies like this show how deeply contested such readings truly are in the context of South African churches, with their painful histories of division and conflict. Future academic work will benefit from the creative and careful methodological approach developed in this study. The author offers resources for reading and conversation for everyone concerned with public life today. This is public theology in action, showing how faith matters – without prescribing answers, but rather by invitation to join an informed discussion.
