【Course Objectives】

Contemporary Bible research was established and has subsequently developed mainly against the historical backdrop of the ideas, that is, the Enlightenment and historicism, of the modern West. Methodologies have become more diverse in the area of New Testament interpretation, especially since the 1970's. Currently, such diverse approaches of Biblical criticism can be broadly classified into the following: that which focuses on the generation of texts, that which focuses on the relationship of texts with social and cultural background as a context, that which focuses on the various aspects of communication within story texts or via texts, and that which carries out self-reflection with regard to the role of Biblical criticism from the viewpoint of self-verification of interpretation. In this course, students will develop an understanding of several typical methodologies for contemporary Biblical criticism and will be introduced to the basics of New Testament interpretation with examples of exegetical application. In the spring semester, students will gain a basic knowledge of textual criticism, source criticism, form criticism, redaction criticism, socio-historical criticism, social-scientific criticism, and rhetorical criticism.

【Course Contents】

After the introduction, students will make research presentations (individually or in groups) based on their original research and interpretations. Discussion/debate involving all students in the class will follow.
