Race, Racism, and Biblical Narratives: On Use and Abuse of Sacred Scripture

Cain Hope Felder

0/5 ( ratings)

Race, Racism, and Biblical Narratives is a critical essay from Stony the Road We Trod: African American Biblical Interpretation written by the project's editor, Cain Hope Felder, now in a concise stand-alone book. In this important work, Felder clarifies the profound differences in racial attitudes in the biblical world and now. The book reveals the processes at work in both the New and Old Testaments that reflect ancient ambiguity about what we call race. Felder uncovers misuses of the biblical text in subsequent interpretation and shows how the Bible has been used to trivialize African contributions and demean and enslave Black people. Race, Racism, and Biblical Narratives challenges scholars and church people alike to a deeper and more honest engagement with the biblical text.
