“…Pour de nombreux spécialistes des études bibliques et critiques postcoloniaux, il convient d'inverser la tendance au choix herméneutique qui a, pendant trop longtemps, favorisé les interprétations favorables au pouvoir établi et à l'ordre social au détriment des esclaves, des femmes, des pauvres, et des « Autres ». Ainsi, les principes essentiels de ce type de critiques postcoloniales, postmodernes et idéologiques poussent les chercheurs à analyser les questions d'ethnicité et d'identités multiples déployées dans les textes (Castelli, 1992 ;Boyarin, 1994 ;Segovia et Sugirtharaja, 2007 ;Liew, 2008 ;Marchal, 2008 ;Lopez, 2008).…”

The aim of this article is to show the advantage of submitting one biblical text to a variety of methodological approaches that will allow a reader to have a fuller understanding of the text. This article proposes to read a particular Pauline text (1 Corinthians 5:1–5) by using different methodological approaches that have been adopted and developed in biblical studies (the historical-critical approach, the “social-scientific” approach, the feminist and postcolonial studies approaches) to illustrate the benefit of using a multiplicity of exegetical tools in the hermeneutical tasks, instead of adopting just one.

The Book of Revelation is an ambiguous, de-colonizing text that is normally read in Haiti, so as to re-colonize. The present study rejects the standard colonizing reading and proposes a postcolonial reading in the Haitian context. The proposed reading is intended to help the Christian churches in Haiti articulate a form of political-religious resistance to the pretensions to divinization that modern neo-colonial forces impose on the people. This new reading seeks to empower oppressed Haitians to read the text in a liberative way.
