A ground-breaking study of the interpretation of scripture in a distinctive Ethiopian framework, revealing both the richness of the tradition and an insight into the process of contextualisation in non-Western churches.
Focusing on the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahido Church's unique approach to biblical interpretation, this book highlights the historical and cultural context that shapes its understanding of Scripture. It showcases the church's rich ecclesiastic tradition and distinctive commentaries that inform contemporary preaching and hermeneutics. By examining the interplay between tradition and context, the work offers valuable insights into the EOTC's longstanding influence on biblical scholarship, particularly within the African context.
