Toward a Theological Understanding of Hermeneutics
This article explores a constructive dialogue between Friedrich Schleiermacher’s general hermeneutics and Karl Barth’s theological exegesis, aiming to move beyond their perceived opposition. While Schleiermacher emphasizes human understanding through grammatical and psychological interpretation, Barth insists on the priority of divine revelation and the theological content of Scripture. This paper argues that a theologically informed theory of un…

Abortion in Indonesia under the 2023 new Criminal Code
The new Indonesian Criminal Code, Law No. 1 of 2023, Article 463, permits abortion up to 14 weeks of pregnancy for women who are victims of rape or sexual violence. In contrast, the previous exemption under Article 75 of Law No. 36 of 2009 on Health was limited to pregnancies up to 6 weeks. This change introduces a further challenge to bioethics from a Christian theological perspective, particularly when compared to the Islamic one. The Christian…
Preimplantation Foetus, IVF, and the Individual's Becoming
This paper explores the moral and existential status of the preimplantation foetus through the lens of Søren Kierkegaard’s existential philosophy, situating the discussion within contemporary debates on personhood in bioethics, particularly in the context of Indonesia’s Ministry of Health Regulations No. 71/2014 and No. 43/2025. Methodologically, the paper employs a hermeneutic–phenomenological approach, engaging close textual interpretation of K…
Renovating Tolerance
This article explores the nuanced consequences of tolerance within the context of Indonesia's pluralistic society, characterized by a Muslim majority. While tolerance is fundamental for maintaining peace among diverse religious groups, it inadvertently fosters a power imbalance. The central aim of this study is to critically assess how the roles of "tolerator" (majority) and "tolerated" (minority) cultivate an inequitable relationship between a d…
Evil Re-Examined
This paper delves into Karl Barth's unique interpretation of evil within the context of the 2019-2022 global COVID-19 pandemic, guided by Kenneth Surin's concept of 'practical theodicy.' Employing a critical analysis of Barth's theological works, with a particular focus on 'das Nichtige' (nothingness), it uncovers a fresh understanding of Barth's theological intentions concerning the problem of evil. Barth's theology highlights the inherent malev…
Reading Karl Barth in Indonesia
The paper explores the reception of Karl Barth’s theology in Indonesia by engaging with select theologians who wrote introductions to his theology in the local language. It argues that Barth’s theology can contribute fruitfully to local conversations only if more patience and understanding are reflected in the theological engagement. However, this is not yet the case, as exemplified in several select theologians, who are introduced and assessed i…
