This collection of essays edited by Jione Havea is a companion to Islands, Islanders, and the Bible . In this volume, contributors focus on the relationship between biblical scholarship and the churches in the South Pacific. Essays are presented in three sections: readings that twist biblical texts around insights of Pasifika novelists, composers, poets, and sages; contextual readings that turn biblical texts toward Pasifika; and responses by biblical critics.
