520 |a The current trend in Biblical interpretation is characterised by a cacophony of voices. Tradition-historical critical methods of Biblical interpretation, with their positivistic and subjective stances and paradigms no longer seem to provide adequate answers to what the Biblical text means for today. Age-long paradigms seem to have collapsed, widening the circle to include a variety of voices, especially those from the margins in Biblical interpretation. The excessive patriarchal, political and socio-economic entrenchment of Biblical texts have proved to be exclusivistic of a vast arena of adherents to the Bible. Furthermore, the Biblical text has been found in many regards to be ethically/morally problematic as far as issues of justice are concerned. Reading and hearing Scripture has taken on a variety of forms in the midst of the interpretative enterprise to which African Biblical scholars have also produced material and offered a fair share of their understanding of Biblical interpretation over the years. This article offers a 'hermeneutic of grafting' as a metaphor for Biblical interpretation in the African (Ghanaian, Ewe) context, which could apply to several, if not all, African contexts.
