The Bible and the Hermeneutics of Liberation
The
same Bible that historically has been invoked to support exploitation
is also a source of inspiration for those fighting oppression and
injustice. This collection of essays highlights the different receptions
that liberation- ist hermeneutics has found in a number of contemporary
contexts. The authors, originating from various countries and
continents and nurtured by diverse theological insights, provide
regional overviews of liberating struggles and liberation hermeneutics
or engage the biblical text from various perspectives, including
mujerista and feminist Afrocentric read- ings. This is an enriching
panorama of ideas and readings all centered on the Bible as a key to
liberation.
