We’re excited to announce the first article of our special collection, ‘Africa Platform for NT Scholars,’ guest edited by Prof. Ernest van Eck. Dive into ‘Unhiding vulnerable voices: Reading four parables in Luke as a response to gender-based violence in South Africa’ by Charel D. du Toit, which offers new perspectives by proposing an unhiding reading of Jesus’ parables. Rooted in social-scientific criticism, it challenges patriarchal erasures of women in biblical interpretation. This hermeneutic offers a transformative tool for theological education and faith communities to address gender-based violence (GBV) in the South African context.Don't miss this insightful read!
