How should we understand and apply those injunctions? Are we obligated to replicate them today? Building on the findings of his previous work in Slaves, Women & Homosexuals, Webb argues that a redemptive hermeneutic points us to God's ultimate ethic and enables us to remain truly biblical.00aBiblexHermeneutics. 0aCorporal punishmentxBiblical teaching. 0aCorporal punishmentxReligious aspectsxChristianity.
