Abstract
  • This project explores the meaning of the Bible in contemporary churches, using the tools of reader-response criticism. The study finds two kinds of readings prevalent among church members: 'weak' readings from the modern world view, and 'better' readings from the sociohistorical perspective of biblical times. When students are taught sociohistorical data concerning Jesus' time, their ability to understand parables improves.
