Text and Interpretation gives an insight into the many different approaches that more recent South African scholarship has adopted in the interpretation of the New Testament. While the number of approaches in New Testament interpretation has proliferated over the past few years, all the proposals still fall under one of the three traditional poles: sender (author) - text - receptor (reader). Classified according to this division each chapter has a twofold aim. Firstly, the perspective is situated within a wider framework of interpretation to illustrate the context out of which this approach emerges. Secondly, each article has selected a particular New Testament text to demonstrate this approach in practice. The authors of these chapters - the majority of which are South African scholars - were chosen because of their expertise in their specific fields. By presenting these studies together in one collection, the scholarship in these different areas will become more readily accessible to a wider group of scholars.
In the past century of critical scholarship on Luke-Acts, it has become commonplace to affirm that Luke attaches no direct soteriological value to the death of Jesus. More specifically, the scholarly consensus affirms that Luke-Acts does not present Jesus’ death as an atonement for sin. Rather, Luke’s soteriology is understood to center upon Jesus’ resurrection and exaltation as Lord. In this careful thematic study of atonement theology in Luke’s double-work, John Kimbell demonstrates that the value Luke attributes to the death of Christ has been underestimated. When all the data is considered, the death of Christ is given greater direct soteriological significance in the Lukan writi...

Latin is the language in which the New Testament was copied, read, and studied for over a millennium. The remains of the initial 'Old Latin' version preserve important testimony for early forms of text and the way in which the Bible was understood by the first translators. Successive revisions resulted in a standard version subsequently known as the Vulgate which, along with the creation of influential commentaries by scholars such as Jerome and Augustine, shaped theology and exeges...

Diese Arbeit untersucht die Ausbildung kommunikativer Fähigkeiten im Kindergarten- und Grundschulalter. Hierfür wurden Kinder im Alter von fünf bis acht Jahren bei der Kommunikation mit Gleichaltrigen über drei Jahre hinweg begleitet. Anhand der Daten können vielfältige Strategien für eine erfolgreiche Bewältigung kindlicher Interaktion aufgezeigt werden. Dabei spielt (sprachliche) Kooperation unter den Kindern eine grundlegende Rolle. Eine zentrale und notwendige Fähigkeit zur Kooperation bildet auf der Makroebene sprachlichen Handelns die Bearbeitung von Konflikten. Auf der Mikroebene wird die Organisation des Diskurses selbst in der sprachlichen, insbesondere prozeduralen, Koordination von Sprecher und Hörer eingehend betrachtet. Sie ist für ein konsistentes und kontinuierliches gemeinsames Handeln unabdingbar. Schon früh setzen die Kinder gezielt Sprechhandlungen zur Herstellung und Aufrechterhaltung von Kooperation ein; mit zunehmendem Alter werden diese komplexer und weiter ausdifferenziert.
