Abstract
This interpretation of genealogy and hermeneutics has been developed within a framework at the core of which there are two philosophical concepts — power and meaning. The difference between hermeneutics and genealogy, I have suggested, lies precisely in their different interpretation and prioritization of these concepts.
I know, O Lord, that the way of man is not in himself, that it is not in man, who walks to direct his steps.
Jeremiah 10: 23
