This book discusses how three Old Testament wisdom texts can be
interpreted in light of, and as a response to Thai Buddhist
interpretations. Its central aim is to explore a new method in
Buddhist-Christian dialogue that has three steps. First, Buddhists
are asked to reflect on biblical texts, second, the texts are
analyzed by placing Christian and Buddhist perspectives side by
side, and finally points of convergence and difference are
established in order to provide a platform for further dialogue.
The study succeeds in demonstrating that the method explored is a
fruitful approach to interreligious dialogue which takes
interpretations of biblical texts by the religious other seriously,
and manages to both affirm commonalities and face religious
difference.
