After outlining exegetical and hermeneutical procedures for contextual interpretation, she reads the Former Prophets in the context of four hundred years of colonial victimization and a continuing struggle against neocolonialism by marginalized and exploited communities such as those in the Philippines. She argues that Joshua 1:1-9 exhorts strength and courage against exploitation and domination by empire. Her work identifies themes and concepts in the Deuteronomistic History that subvert imperial ideology and that can serve as a model for other work in contextual hermeneutics of biblical texts"--Back cover. 410 0$aInternational voices in biblical studies ;$vno. 9. 606 $aResistance (Philosophy) 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$2fast 615 0$aResistance (Philosophy) 676 $a222/.207 700 $aFetalsana-Apura$b Lily$01252866 912 $a9910586701403321 996 $aA Filipino resistance reading of Joshua 1:1-9$92904651 997 $aUNINA
