This article aims to explore the challenges of contextual biblical studies in the disruptive era. This era is marked by the development of digital technology such as smartphones, so that everyone can easily prepare sermon materials instantly from various interpretation applications on a smartphone, without basing it on in-depth Bible interpretation rules. The author presents the concepts and methods of biblical interpretation as a form of contextual biblical studies to overcome the use of instant sermons from various interpretation applications.

Abstract This article considers how biblical scholarship might break out of its western-dominated, largely historical-critical mould. I argue that we might challenge the hegemony of ‘western worldview’ scholarship by capitalising on the interpretative insights of alternative worldviews; in that regard, I advance a cross-cultural methodology. Additionally, I advocate engaging with grassroots interpreters, thereby contributing to the decentring of scholarly biblical criticism. Finally, this article focuses on the value of interpretation through dialogue, which functions here on two levels: the r

Introduction: Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) Biblical Scholars (BS) and Theologians assert that EGW accepts and applies principles of biblical interpretation when she interprets the Scripture. However, there seems to be lack of academic research to prove such presupposition.One area that seems to be lacking is the comparison between EGW’s interpretation of gospel parables with that of modern biblical scholars. Their interpretations of selected SG parables will be compared and contrasted with that of EGW. The purpose of this study is to prove that EGW’s interpretation of gospel parables are in har

Abstract The so-called Elephant Mosaic panel from the Huqoq synagogue floor has sparked intense scholarly debate regarding its interpretation. This article proposes a biblical episode as its topic: the killing of the Moabite king Eglon by Ehud ben Gera (Judges 3). Reading the panels as a unified composition, the biblical-midrashic interpretation offered here combines biblical elements with their rabbinic interpretations. The importance of the latter inheres in their reflection of the Galilean milieu contemporary with the Huqoq community. The suggested interpretation also shares common motifs w

Beyond these contrary assessments of TIS, another key problem in understanding TIS is the diverse (and sometimes contradictory) methods employed by TIS interpreters.
