VonWachenfeldt, Lawrenceville School, USA This study investigates how a comparison between Edward Schillebeeckx's controversial reading of Thomist philosophy and the Tibetan Buddhist Gendun Chopel's challenge to the standard Geluk teaching of Tsongkhapa's Madhyamaka philosophy enables us to rethink conceptions of religious knowledge.

Reading in the Presence of Christ: A Study of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Bibliology and Exegesis
Joel Banman, Independent Scholar, Canada What is Scripture, and how should we read it? And what might 20th-century theologian, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, have to teach us about these important questions? This study reassesses some of Bonhoeffer's key exegetical writings in light of his theology of revelation and bibliology, unfolding the ways in which his reading of the Bible is determined by his theology of Scripture. Accordingly, the guiding question of this study is how Bonhoeffer's bibliology informs his exegesis.

Bearing Sin as Church Community
Bonhoeffer's Hamartiology
Hyun Joo Kim, Torch Trinity Graduate University, Korea Claims that Bonhoeffer transforms and reconstructs the Augustinian doctrine of original sin by shifting the hamartiological premise from the doctrine of God to the doctrine of the church based on his Lutheran resources. In Bonhoeffer’s view, Augustine’s doctrine of original sin does not fully relate the doctrine of sin to the responsibility of the saints. Interestingly, in order to reform Augustinian hamartiology, Bonhoeffer appropriates Augustine’s notion of the Church as the whole Christ (totus Christus), which is located in Augustine’s ecclesiology.

Reading with Earth: Contributions of the New Materialism to an Ecological Feminist Hermeneutics
Anne Elvey, University of Divinity, Australia Applying a re-envisioned ecological feminist hermeneutics, this book builds on two important responses to 20th- and 21st-century situations of ecological trauma, especially the complex contexts of climate change and cross-species relations. The first is ecological feminism; the second is ecological hermeneutics in the Earth Bible tradition. Such an approach is both informed by and speaks back to the new materialism in ecological criticism.

The Origin of Humanity and Evolution
Science and Scripture in Conversation
Andrew Ter Ern Loke, Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong Proposes a model which argues that all humans today have Adam as common ancestor, and through this model, Andrew Ter Ern Loke argues that the theory of evolution as understood by mainstream scientists is compatible with Scripture. Whilst affirming that the Bible should be interpreted according to proper hermeneutical principles such as considering the literary genre, literary context, meaning of words, grammatical relationship, and the background and concerns of the ancient authors, this book also assesses the scientific data according to proper mainstream scientific methodology.
