The Use of Scripture in the Teaching of Religious Education in Victorian Catholic Secondary Schools

Grace, Michael James, res.cand@acu.edu.au January 2003 (has links)
This thesis examines the use of scripture by religious education teachers with their students in Victorian Catholic secondary schools in late 1999. The aims of the research were: to present a picture of the incorporation of scripture into the religious education program of Victorian Catholic secondary schools in 1999, and in particular the incorporation of the historical-critical method of modern biblical scholarship (focus will also be placed on the purpose for which scripture is used, the extent to which it is used and the methods employed in its use); to investigate how and to what extent VCE Texts and Traditions1 Units 1 to 4 have been adopted by senior Victorian Catholic secondary students and its influence on Years Seven to Ten religious education curriculum; and to extend the work of Stead (1996b) into the use of scripture in Victorian Catholic primary schools. This study is built on an understanding of religious education based on an educational rationale, and it examines the use of scripture in the light of modern critical biblical scholarship, particularly the historical-critical method. Religious Education Coordinators from 67 of the 99 Victorian Catholic secondary schools and 61 teachers of Years Seven to Ten religious education in these same schools completed self administering questionnaires in this area. The research demonstrated that while there is an extensive range of good modern biblical scholarship material present in these schools, there is no policy concerning how scripture is to be used in the curriculum, questionable translations of the bible are used, and there is a limited use of many sections of the bible. A key finding of the research is that a thematic, proof-texting use of scripture is prevalent in these schools. This thematic use can lead to a literal, fundamentalist use of scripture within Catholic secondary religious education. This approach is linked with many religious education teachers. predominantly catechetical understanding of the nature of religious education. The self administering questionnaires asked for an indication of the personal practice of respondents in their own religious education classrooms. The data indicated the presence of the historical-critical method in the classrooms of Victorian Catholic secondary schools, however there was an over-reliance on the student text and the predominance of a thematic, literal, non-critical use of scripture. This thesis indicates that this misuse of scripture comes about from teachers. catechetical understanding of the nature of religious education. In particular the study of scripture in Years 11 and 12 is an area of concern. Except for a small percentage of students studying Texts and Traditions (13%), the use of the historical-critical method of biblical studies is almost non-existent.

The paper seeks above all point the full sense of the word 'debts from its counterpart in the original language. It intends, therefore, apply the historicalcritical method to accomplish the exegesis of this text in order to identify a good interpretation for it. It will also develop some jubilee traditions present in the Old Testament about forgiveness, in order to better understand this concept and its applicability. Finally, from the historical-effectual hermeneutic, it considers some perspectives of reading in which it will be possible reflect and which can be discussed. / Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo principal analisar a ocorrência, o conteúdo e a teologia da expressão perdão das dívidas , presente na Oração do Pai Nosso, registrada em Mateus 6,9-13, buscando, sobretudo, apontar o sentido pleno da palavra dívidas a partir de seu correspondente no idioma de origem. Pretendo, assim, aplicar o método histórico-crítico para realizar a exegese desse texto, a fim de identificar uma boa interpretação para o mesmo. Procurarei também desenvolver algumas tradições jubilares presentes no Antigo Testamento acerca do perdão, com o intuito de entender melhor esse conceito e sua aplicabilidade. Finalmente, a partir da hermenêutica histórico-efeitual, apontarei algumas perspectivas de leitura nas quais se poderão refletir e com as quais se poderão debater.

[pt] A HERMENÊUTICA DA FÉ SEGUNDO JOSEPH RATZINGER / [en] HERMENEUTICS OF FAITH ACCORDING TO JOSEPH RATZINGER

THADEU LOPES MARQUES DE OLIVEIRA 28 April 2020 (has links)
[pt] A hermenêutica bíblico-teológica situada na metodologia teológica de Joseph Ratzinger, nomeada por ele hermenêutica da fé, é o tema principal dessa dissertação. Busca-se através desse aspecto do pensamento de Ratzinger encontrar perspectivas que proporcionem, no fazer teológico, uma relação saudável e frutífera entre Sagrada Escritura e teologia sistemática, tendo em vista o contexto da teologia contemporânea e os desafios hodiernos. Para analisar esse aspecto do pensamento de Ratzinger, foi necessário estudar e apresentar o que é o método histórico-crítico, pois a formulação da sua hermenêutica bíblico-teológica se deu no diálogo com ele. Posteriormente se analisou a importância da Constituição Dogmática Dei Verbum na sistematização da hermenêutica bíblico-teológica de Ratzinger. Buscando verificar esse aspecto de sua metodologia em uma área específica de sua teologia, optou-se pela cristologia, em especial no primeiro volume de sua obra Jesus de Nazaré. Nesse capítulo busca-se evidenciar a maneira como Ratzinger interpreta as Sagradas Escrituras no fazer teológico, com o objetivo de verificar se ele pratica sua hermenêutica bíblico-teológica. Também é dedicado um capítulo à apresentação das diversas análises feitas por alguns autores à proposta metodológica de Ratzinger para a composição do Jesus de Nazaré. Nessas análises, buscou-se focar a metodologia usada por Ratzinger. Foram apresentadas as recepções positivas, e também, algumas críticas. / [en] The main theme of this Master s Thesis is about biblical-theological hermeneutics based on Joseph Ratzinger s theological methodology, which he calls the hermeneutics of faith. Through this aspect of Ratzinger s thought, we seek to find perspectives in the theological making that provide a healthy and fruitful relationship between Sacred Scripture and Systematic Theology, which considers the context of contemporary theology and current challenges. Therefore, in order to analyze this aspect of Ratzinger s thought, it was necessary to study and present the meaning of historical-critical method, because the formulation of his biblicaltheological hermeneutics took place in the dialogue about this method. After this, the importance of Dogmatic Constitution Dei Verbum in the systematization of Ratzinger s biblical-theological hermeneutics was analyzed. In order to verify this aspect of his methodology in a specific area of his theology, Christology was chosen especially in the first volume of his book Jesus of Nazareth. In the first chapter, we try to highlight the way Ratzinger interprets the Holy Scriptures in his theological work. It has the aim of verifying if he practices his biblical-theological hermeneutics. There is also a chapter dedicated to present many analyzes made by some authors about the methodological proposal of Ratzinger to compose his book Jesus of Nazareth. In these analyzes, we sought to focus on the methodology used by Ratzinger. Positive receptions were presented, as well as some critical ones.

CONTRIBUIÇÃO DA HERMENÊUTICA BÍBLICA PARA O DIÁLOGO ENTRE TEOLOGIA E CIÊNCIA, A PARTIR DE JOSUÉ 10,12-14. / Contribution of biblical hermeneutics for the dialogue between Theology and Science, from Joshua 10,12-14.

Made available in DSpace on 2016-07-27T13:46:33Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 PAULO SERGIO SOARES.pdf: 1819144 bytes, checksum: 46c1970907dfda3019e553fac5ee1358 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-02-13 / Theology and Science are distinct areas of knowledge s construction that can dialogue to each other, because both seek to explain the world. Is this dialogue possible, today, especially considering the extraordinary advances in Science and, on the other hand, the stagnation of Theology in its classic schema based on Revelation and Tradition, as well as the loss of its cognitive character? Efforts are being undertaken by representatives from both areas, in various directions, aiming at rapprochement between them. This requires, for both, renounce any confrontation, but also renounce the claim that there isn t any contradiction between Bible and Science, and follow the way of mutual collaboration, through a "critical-constructive interaction", as proposes Hans Küng. Since the Bible is one of the sources of theological knowledge, to the biblical hermeneutics this imposes the task of contributing with its specificity in this process. Texts that defy scientific knowledge, as the "stop of the Sun and the Moon", in Joshua 10,12-14, were in the midst of the crisis that resulted in disagreement and detachment between Theology and Science, since Galileo s case". Such texts are asking today to be revisited, in order to no longer obstruct the dialogue. With the historical-critical exegesis and the criticalconstructive hermeneutics of the referred text of Joshua, associated to some epistemological considerations, the present thesis wishes to contribute to the consolidation of a secure base for the bridge which has been building between the two areas. / Teologia e Ciência são áreas distintas de construção do conhecimento que podem dialogar entre si, pois ambas pretendem explicar o mundo. Será possível esse diálogo, hoje, sobretudo considerando os extraordinários avanços da Ciência e, em contrapartida, a estagnação da Teologia em seu esquema clássico baseado na Revelação e na Tradição, bem como a perda de seu caráter cognitivo? Esforços vêm sendo empreendidos por representantes de ambas as áreas, em diversas direções, visando a reaproximação entre elas. Isso exige, para ambas, renunciar a toda confrontação, como também ao "concordismo", à alegação de que não existe qualquer contradição entre Bíblia e Ciência, e seguir o caminho da mútua colaboração, por meio de uma interação crítico-construtiva , como propõe Hans Küng. Já que a Bíblia é uma das fontes do saber teológico, impõe-se para a hermenêutica bíblica a tarefa de contribuir com sua especificidade nesse processo. Textos que desafiam o conhecimento científico, como o da parada do sol e da lua , em Josué 10,12-14, estiveram no bojo da crise que resultou no desentendimento e afastamento entre a Teologia e a Ciência, a partir do caso Galileu . Tais textos pedem hoje uma revisita, de forma a não mais obstaculizar o diálogo. Com a exegese histórico-crítica e a hermenêutica crítico-construtiva do referido texto de Josué, associadas a algumas considerações epistemológicas, a presente tese deseja contribuir para a consolidação de uma base segura para a ponte que se vem construindo entre as duas áreas.

Pohled na Písmo a hermeneutická východiska pro jeho výklad v různých křesťanských tradicích / The Scripture and Hermeneutical Solutions for its Interpretation in Various Christian Traditions

Holeka, Matouš January 2021 (has links)
Matouš Holeka's dissertation examines various interpretation methods of the Scriptures by theologians in the Roman-Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant traditions. These interpretation methods can be most clearly identified in the relationship between the Scriptures and tradition, in historical-critical methodology, and in political-cultural readings of the biblical texts. In this dissertation, these themes are shown as representing different ways of common critical reading of the sacred texts. As well as the historical-critical approach, there are also pre-critical and ideological readings. The dissertation starts by looking at this diversity in documents of the World Council of Churches. It shows that the differences in understanding the Scriptures are no longer connected primarily to the specific views of the respective traditions, but rather that similarities or differences in readings across churches. Christians within these traditions refer to their own sources: in the case of the Roman-Catholics to Church documents, in the case of the Orthodox to the Church Fathers and as far as Protestants are concerned, to the Confessions. However, their reception in each of these traditions only confirms the diversity of readings. This is also true for the theological interpretation of the Scriptures, which...

Re-reading the Israelite Jubilee in Leviticus 25:8-55 in the context of land redistribution and socio-economic justice in South Africa : an African liberationist perspective

Mtshiselwa, Vincent Ndikhokele Ndzondelelo 02 1900 (has links)
The main question of this research which focuses on the role of the Old Testament in the South African context is: If reread from an African liberationist perspective in the context of land redistribution and socio-economic justice in South Africa, could the Israelite Jubilee legislation in Leviticus 25:8-55 offer liberating and empowering possibilities for the poor in South Africa? Methodologically, both the historical-critical method and the African liberationist approach are employed in the present study. The exegesis of Leviticus 25:8-55 in which the historical-critical method is employed lays the foundation for the contextualisation of the issues arising from the exegesis. Furthermore, within the African liberationist framework, the South African context served as a lens to interpret Leviticus 25:8-55. Significantly, this study shows the misuse of power on the part of the rich élites to confiscate productive land from the poor Israelites in the pre-exilic setting. Not only were the rich élites elevated at the expense of the poor, the Levites were equally favoured economically in the Babylonian period. In post-exilic Yehud, of significance is the fact that the Jews were faced with the challenge of loss of land, indebtedness and poverty. The striking parallels between the contexts from which the text of Leviticus 25:8-55 emerged and the context of the modern reader of the Bible in South Africa are shown. It is revealed that African-South Africans who lost their productive land during the colonial and apartheid eras continue to experience indebtedness and poverty. At the same time, the political élites contribute to the present disproportionate benefits from land ownership and socio-economic injustice in the country. Like the context of Leviticus 25:8-55, in South Africa, the rich continue to be richer while many African-South Africans are trapped in the poverty cycle. In the end, it is argued that when re-read from an African liberationist perspective and in the context of the land redistribution and socio-economic justice discourse, Leviticus 25:8-55 can contribute positively to the redress of inequality and consequently to poverty alleviation in South Africa. / Philosophy, Practical & Systematic Theology / D.

The role of the priests in Israelite identity formation in the exilic/post-exilic period with special reference to Leviticus 19:1-19a / Rol van die priesters in die Israelitiese identiteitsvorming tydens die ballingskaps-/ na-ballingskapstydperk met spesiale verwysing na Levitikus 19:1-19a

Beer, Leilani 07 1900 (has links)
Bibliography: leaves 289-298 / Source-criticism of the Pentateuch suggests that the priests (Source P) alone authored the Holiness Code – the premise being that Source P forms one religious, literate and elite group of several. Through the endeavor to redefine Israelite identity during the Neo-Babylonian Empire of 626–539 BCE and the Achaemenid Persian Empire of 550–330 BCE, various ideologies of Israelite identity were produced by various religious, literate and elite groups. Possibly, the Holiness Code functions as the compromise reached between two such groups, these being: the Shaphanites, and the Zadokites. Moreover, the Holiness Code functions as the basis for the agreed identity of Israel as seen by the Shaphanites and the Zadokites. Specifically, in Leviticus 19:1-19a – as being the Levitical decalogue of the Holiness Code, and which forms the emphasis of this thesis – both Shaphanite and Zadokite ideologies are expressed therein. The Shaphanite ideology is expressed through the Mosaic tradition: i.e., through the Law; and the Zadokite ideology is expressed through the Aaronide tradition: i.e., through the Cult. In the debate between the supremacy of the Law, or the Cult – i.e., Moses or Aaron – the ancient Near Eastern convention of the ‘rivalry between brothers’ is masterfully negotiated in Leviticus 19:1-19a. / Old Testament and Ancient Near Eastern Studies / D.
