The Ethics of Hebrew Narrative: A Typology of Modes for Moral Analysis with a Case Study (Gen 19:30–38)
(2025) Keefer, Arthur; Trinity College Theological School
This article establishes a novel typology of approaches to the moral analysis of biblical narrative based upon a single case study: the story of Lot and his daughters in Gen 19:30–38. By analyzing how interpreters throughout time have made and justified ethical evaluations of Gen 19:30–38, I identify nine distinct methods for interpreting biblical narratives from an ethical angle and arrive at several conclusions: (1) there are distinct modes by which interpreters ethically evaluate biblical narratives; (2) certain modes are used in combination; (3) different modes can reach the same conclusion, while the same mode can bring interpreters to different conclusions; (4) the proposed typology should reorient certain methodological priorities in biblical ethics. The significance of additional factors for the ethics of biblical narrative are also explored, including the role of certain historical-critical approaches and the nature of intertextuality, while several constructive suggestions are offered for work in the field.

Epistemologie im lokativen Kasus: Die ungeschaffenen Energien und ortsbasierte Wissensweisen
(2024) Reid, Duncan; Trinity College Theological School
.John Chryssavgis has proposed that the Palamite distinction between essence and energies might be a helpful, perhaps necessary, way forward for a theological reception of Indigenous Australian epistemology, and that this way of knowing can be properly understood as a work of the Holy Spirit. This article revisits Chryssavgis’s proposal, first made in 1990, in the light of recent Indigenous theological writing. By contrast, another recent theological attempt to enter into dialogue with an Indigenous worldview, that of Michael Bowden, will also be considered. It is argued that Chryssavgis’s approach is to be preferred on the grounds that God’s transcendence is safeguarded alongside the presence of Holy Spirit in country.
