  • Louis C Jonker Department of Old and New Testament Stellenbosch University

Abstract

1. Introduction Biblical interpretation (as is the case with any interpretation I) is a multidimensionae and dynamic process. This means that various factors interact in the interpretation process. Interpreters are normally aware that some of these factors playa role, but there are often many factors of which interpreters are not aware of during the process of interpretation. These factors influence the process unconsciously.
