dc.description.abstractA literal, second language reading of the Bible obfuscicates the interpretation and application of Biblical texts to cultural issues such as land inheritance by female in receptor communities. Texts such as the Zelophehad narrative in Numbers (27:1-11) are often glossed over in Church and Christian circles due to lack of interpretive insights resulting from a too literal reading and second language interpretations. Using a functional equivalence approach the text can be interpreted and translated in a responsible way, bearing in mind the need to create a more informed understanding and appreciation of the theological-ethical implications of the Zelophehad narratives (see also Num. 36:1-12; Jos.17:2-6) for faith communities in Nigeria.en_ZA
