Challenging this, Dr. Jerry Hwang examines the Old Testament's cultural engagement of its ancient Near Eastern context, arguing that Scripture itself provides the ultimate model for contextualizing theology in Asia. While it is common for missiological studies to ignore the Old Testament in their discussion of contextualization, truly biblical contextualization must include the whole Bible, not simply the New Testament. This study provides insightful discourse between the Old Testament and various Asian contexts, while demonstrating how Asian perspectives can help overcome the Eurocentrism prevalent in Old Testament scholarship."--Back cover Bibel Bibel <Altes Testament> Altes Testament Kontext Alter Orient Asien Wissenschaft Eurozentrismus 66776 66776 0 0 0 0 AWMBIB AWMBIB RAU23 2024-08-12 0.00 0 Dd 31.7 Hwa 01237191 2026-07-31 22:46:15 2026-07-31 BUCH
