Its central aim is to explore a new method in Buddhist-Christian dialogue that has three steps. First, Buddhists are asked to reflect on biblical texts, second, the texts are analyzed by placing Christian and Buddhist perspectives side by side, and finally points of convergence and difference are established in order to provide a platform for further dialogue. The study succeeds in demonstrating that the method explored is a fruitful approach to interreligious dialogue which takes interpretations of biblical texts by the religious ‘other’ seriously, and manages to both affirm commonalities and face religious difference.Studies in systematic theology (Leiden, Netherlands) ;v. 10.Christianity and other religionsRelationsTheravāda BuddhismTheravāda BuddhismRelationsChristianityTheravāda BuddhismThailandWisdom literatureCriticism, interpretation, etcChristianity and other religionsRelationsTheravāda Buddhism.Theravāda BuddhismRelationsChristianity.Theravāda BuddhismWisdom literatureCriticism, interpretation, etc.223/.060882943Haug Kari Storstein1601411MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910815071303321Interpreting Proverbs 11:18-31, Psalm 73, and Ecclesiastes 9:1-12 in light of, and as a response to, Thai Buddhist interpretations3925000UNINA
