The Bible Culturally Speaking: Understanding the Role of Culture in the Production, Presentation and Interpretation of God's Word Glenn Rogers

Understanding the way the Bible was impacted by human culture as it was produced is crucial if we are to understand God's message for us today. Human culture impacted the Scriptures over the centuries they were being produced. Different cultural contexts are present within the Scriptures, and contemporary global cultures impact the way Scripture is interpreted and applied today around the world. If we fail to understand the significance of human culture in the production, presentation and interpretation of God's Word, we run the risk of confused and irrelevant interpretations that are not central to a vital biblical faith that is culturally appropriate for contemporary believers in God's global community of faith.
