Abstract
This article explores the intersections between the dance, biblical studies and performance praxis. It articulates the possible kinds of knowledge(s) that are at the intersection between movement as a performance practice and biblical research. By looking at Adrian Howells's work
Foot Washing For The Sole (2009) as a prototype for Kinaesthetic Hermeneutics, this exploration suggests that Howells's embodied reading of Luke 7:37-83 provides a methodology for interpreting scripture through the body. This article ultimately seeks to answer the question can
the body be a site for biblical exegesis?
