  • The parables of Jesus as critique on food security systems for vulnerable households in urban townships.Ernest Van Eck & Meshack Mandla Mashinini - 2016 - HTS Theological Studies 72 (3):9.
    A recent empirical study on food shortage in South African urban townships indicates thatfood shortage embodies multi-faceted aspects with broader social implications, such as thesense of personal dignity, the ability to openly associate with others and a loss of self-identity.It is argued that the parables of Jesus, when read as symbols of social transformation, providea critique on food insecurity systems in urban townships. It is proposed that the parables ofJesus serve as the conduits for a societal and perhaps ecclesial reorientation (...)

  • An unexpected patron: A social-scientific and realistic reading of the parable of the Vineyard Labourers (Mt 20:1–15).Ernest Van Eck & John S. Kloppenborg - 2015 - HTS Theological Studies 71 (1).
    Many readings of the Parable of the Labourers in the vineyard want to treat the owner as representing God. Knowledge of actual agricultural practices relating to the management of vineyards suggest, on the contrary, that the details of the parable obstruct an easy identification of the owner with God, and that he displays unusual behaviour not only by paying all the labourers the same wage, but by his very intervention in the hiring process. The conclusion reached is that the parable (...)

    The parables of Jesus: Allegories or symbols of social transformation? This article reflects on a possible methodology that can be used to interpret the parables of Jesus preserved in the Synoptics (and the Gospel of Thomas). It is argued that the available versions of the parables of Jesus have already been allegorised, and that this should be taken into consideration when the extant versions of parables are interpreted as parables of the historical Jesus. The parables should also, as far as (...)

  • Memory and historical Jesus studies: Formgeschichte in a new dress?Ernest van Eck - 2015 - HTS Theological Studies 71 (1):10.
    In the quest for the historical Jesus, memory studies are seen as an important breakthrough in the study of the historical Jesus and the way forward in establishing the historicity of the Gospel traditions. This article evaluates the claim made by memory studies by evaluating memory studies’ critique on the methodology of the criteria approach. In this evaluation attention is given to the methodological points of departure of memory studies, including an assessment of the few examples memory studies thus far (...)

  • La Parábola de las minas (Lc 19,11-28): Confianza, responsabilidad y misión.Isaac Moreno Sanz - 2024 - Isidorianum 33 (2):137-172.
    La parábola de las minas (Lc 19,11-28), situada estratégicamente al final del camino a Jerusalén, es una perícopa de difícil interpretación. Por una parte, incorpora la parábola del pretendiente al trono en el relato de las minas/talentos, por otra, muestra la violencia de las duras palabras del rey. El presente artículo propone una nueva aproximación desde la pragmalingüística, analizando el contexto literario, la cohesión lingüística y la coherencia comunicativa. Así se evidencia la estrategia comunicativa lucana que propone la confianza, la (...)

  • Puzzling the Jesus of the Parables: A response to Ruben Zimmermann.Llewellyn Howes - 2017 - HTS Theological Studies 73 (4):1-9.
    This article responds to Ruben Zimmermann's latest book, Puzzling the Parables of Jesus. In particular, one aspect of his proposed method is challenged, namely, his conscious attempt to do away with considerations of the pre-Easter context when interpreting the parables. The article finishes by proposing a variant methodology of parable interpretation, featuring the parable of the Good Samaritan as a working example.
