Inter-disciplinary studies are emerging rapidly to meet the insistent demands of the modern age. Biblical interpretation is itself inter-disciplinary, drawing together the biblical traditions and others to address the problem of interpreting texts. Christian ethics is also multi-disciplinary and thus no stranger to this new ethos. To bring these two areas together is a potentially creative undertaking. It comes at a time when much attention is being paid to reading texts and the interpretive tradition. The author's principal aim is to read the Bible in the context of moral concern. Attention is paid to the liberal quest and to eschatology and ethics (each marking a distinct epoch in the relationship of Bible and ethics), before the post-critical age is studied under the rubric 'participation in meaning'. The final section deals with ethics and historical reading, and with ethics and contemporary reading. The book concludes with a discussion of selected practical topics.

Anglicans and Orthodox have known each other since the 16th century. What began as personal exchanges became academic and ecclesiastical exchanges in the following century. Trade and politics created new links and occasions for meetings in the 18th century. From the 16th century onwards, church officials came more and more into contact with each other. In the twentieth century, calls for unity began to be heard and churches began to get to know each other better. Official ecumenical dialogue between the Orthodox and Anglican churches began 49 years ago. That they may all be one' was to be achieved through a doctrinal approach. Have these efforts helped to achieve communion, or has the aim of the dialogue had to change? The ecclesiological method had limited results and a new approach was needed. Since 2015, a new methodology has been used that focuses more on what humanity means to both communions, rather than debating the doctrine of the Church. This paper reviews the development of the official ecumenical dialogue between the two Churches and examines the new approach used since 2015 and its recent results. It shows how a human-centred approach based on anthropological theology has been used to answer difficult ethical questions. The research method is linked to the content of the thesis. For the historical part, which gives an overview of the official ecumenical dialogue between the Anglican and the Orthodox Church, secondary studies are used for the literature research. In order to analyse the recent progress of the dialogue, the research is based on fresh primary sources, not all of which have yet been published. Qualitative research based on interviews is also used to analyse the context of recent and future discussions..

McBRIDE Jane The Pericope of the Syrophoenician Woman in Matthew 15 and Mark 7: an Exegetical, Hermeneutical, and Empirical-Homiletical Study First examination period, January 2019 Promoter: Prof. Dr Reimund Bieringer Co-promoters: Prof. Dr Annemie Dillen, Prof. Dr Jack McDonald Summary The topic under discussion is the pericope of the Syrophoenician or Canaanite woman which appears in the Gospel of Matthew 15:21-28 and the Gospel of Mark 7:25-30, and how it has been rendered in exegesis and in homiletics. The recurring hermeneutic is a feminist one. The pericope is liturgically important to Anglicans, being referred to in one of the prayers before Communion and included in the lectionary readings on which many Anglican priests base their weekly sermons. Since much Anglican theology has been written in sermon form, this feminist theological research focuses on how Anglican ordained female preachers interpret the pericope. We begin in chapter one with an exegetical, literature-based study of the pericope in its two occurrences in the Gospels of Matthew and Mark, covering historical critical exegesis, and modern thematic and contextual readings. Chapter two looks at how Anglican homiletics has been a source of theology since the beginnings of Anglicanism when Thomas Cranmer included a reference to the story of the Syrophoenician woman in his Prayer of Humble Access before Communion in the liturgy of the Book of Common Prayer. This chapter also acts as a bridge between chapters one and three. Chapter three consists of qualitative empirical research into sermons preached on the pericope by ordained Anglican women. It analyses twelve sermons received from Anglican ordained women preachers in the United Kingdom, using thematic content analysis and coding to identify recurring themes and ideas, and then bringing the results of this research into dialogue with the findings from chapter one’s exegesis. Areas of overlap are discussed and a feminist hermeneutic of suspicion, remembrance, proclamation, and enactment is applied to the findings. The exegetical section is by far the most detailed but it has also been interesting to discover how many themes found in the literature search were raised in the space of the twelve sermons examined. The Anglican liturgical and feminist implications of a pericope featuring a vocal woman in a dispute with Jesus are clear, and the voice of Anglican ordained women preaching on this text hopefully makes a contribution to the existing body of literature.
