Zusammenfassung:Special Edition: Understanding the Old Testament in South Africa. By fostering a greater sensitivity to the literary dimensions of the text, narrative analysis can yield fruitful insights for contemporary reflection on Old Testament theology. Consideration of matters such as reliability of the narrator, portrayal of character and structuring techniques, can facilitate creative engagement with different models of divine and human activity in Old Testament narratives. The relationship between narratology and historical methods should be explored as part of a multi-faceted appreciation of communicative strategies in Old Testament texts.
