Description

The Bible holds a central place in Caribbean life, yet it is often underused as a tool for driving social change. Most Caribbean biblical hermeneutics focus on how texts apply to the present day while overlooking the original settings in which these texts were written. 'Biblical Resistance Hermeneutics within a Caribbean Context' changes this approach. This book provides a framework that recognizes the social-ideological interests, theological agendas, and social practices that shaped the biblical texts. At the same time, it accounts for the socio-cultural context of the modern reader. By examining the social context of both the original authors and contemporary Caribbean society, this work offers a new way to engage with scripture. It is an essential resource for those looking to understand how biblical interpretation can connect historical origins with modern social realities.
