Highlight: The modern midrashic hermeneutical reformation
Although this wiki covers anything and everything Bible, the primary inspiration that got us started was the modern midrashic hermeneutical reformation which been rising within academia since around the 1980s and is now increasingly beginning to reach the laity largely via the help of video/podcast material favorably accessible to the modern information consumer. Learn from midrashic hermeneutical resources or participate in midrashic hermeneutical discussion communities.
Participate easily!
One quick and easy way to help build this knowledgebase is to simply add a bullet point to one of our existing lists such as:
- List of chiasms in the Bible, from meta-high-level (e.g. Genesis+Exodus, the book of Leviticus, John+Revelation) to micro-level (e.g. Mark 2:27)
- List of midrashic hermeneutical resources (e.g. AlephBeta, Theopolis, BibleProject)
- List of midrashic literary tools (e.g. "intertextuality", "chiasm", "juxtaposition", "parallelism")
- List of numbers with possible significance (e.g. 153, 318, 613, 666, 1260)
"Wiki" is a Hawaiian word meaning "quick." The process is supposed to be fast and painless. On Bible Wiki you need not even write a complete sentence! Just include enough data that other Bible Wiki editors and researchers, or your future self, can understand what is intended and flesh-out the information more fully later, if necessary.
