| Title | The church’s responsibility towards the social order: An Old Testament hermeneutic problem | |
| Creator | Breytenbach, A.P.B. | |
| Description | There is a widespread conviction among conservative groups in the Afrikaans speaking mainline churches in South Africa that the church has a responsibility towards the structuring of society. This conviction is based on a reading of the Old Testament which can be traced back to Calvin. The article hypothesises that such a hermeneutic cannot be maintained in the aftermath of historicalcritical research in Biblical studies. | |
