撮要
本文以相互主體性,文本互涉性及相互連結性的觀點為基礎,訴諸於聖經詮釋的群體,再次肯定學者在追求學術時互相負責及尊重的需要。本文一方面確認文化的文本互涉性在學術生產方面的貢獻,另一方面則承認必須透過相互連結性建立普世群體,以鼓勵在世界村內促進人類知識的合作精神。人們對聖經詮釋學趨向霸權主義的醒覺,使人要求真摯、誠實及彼此尊重的學術交流,亦即是在詮釋關係及確認的文化中具備道德的敏感性。
ABSTRACT
Based on the notions of intersubjectivity, intertextuality and interconnectivity, this essay appeals to the biblical interpretative communities to reaffirm the need for mutual responsibility and respectivity of the self in the pursue of knowledge; recognizing the contribution of cultural intertextuality in the production of knowledge on the one hand, and the necessity to establish a global community through interconnectivity that encourage a corporate effort in the advancement of knowledge for humanity within our global village on the other hand. The awareness of the possibility to indulge into a tendency of hegemonic behavior in biblical hermeneutics calls for a sincere, honest and respectful academic communicative interaction that is ethically sensitive within a culture of hermeneutical relationship and acknowledgment.
