Aims and Scope

Aim and Scope
AJOBIT aims to advance scholarly research in biblical studies, translation studies, linguistics, and intercultural theology, particularly in Africa. AJOBIT seeks to provide a platform for scholars, researchers, and practitioners to contribute to meaningful theological discourse that is both contextually relevant and globally significant. The intended readership of AJOBIT is theological scholars (researchers), students, Bible translators, Translation Consultants, ministers, and the general public.
AJOBIT welcomes original theoretical and empirical research that engages with biblical, theological, linguistics, translation studies, and intercultural theology from an African perspective.
