5th Biblical Studies Seminar: Bible and Ethnicity

27/2/2018

0 Comments

 
The annual Biblical Studies Seminar is an interdisciplinary seminar organised by the Centre for Bible Engagement, a research centre of Seminari Theoloji Malaysia, where we focus on a particular contemporary theme from a biblical perspective with insights drawn from other related academic disciplines. 

This year, our theme is Bible and Ethnicity and the seminar will be jointly organised with the Centre for Theological Education by Extension to be held at Luther Centre, Petaling Jaya.

What does the Bible say about ethnic relations, ethnic identities, and ethnic boundaries in nation building? Are there workable arrangements for peace and harmony among various ethnic groups living together as a community?

This seminar contributes to the wider conversation by examining the construction and contestation of ethnic identities both within the Bible itself and in biblical interpretation drawn from other related disciplines.

​We invite you to come and  join us in our conversation.
