Abstract

Christology in the core of Christianity, where Jesus expresses God’s love through His life, His teaching, and His love especially to the poor. However, the understanding or the image of Jesus varies because this is greatly influenced by contextual experience or struggle. Traditional theological does not consider the context of women. This is the case in Sumba, where the mythology of mbiri koni exists. By using the view point of women and the local people toward this mythology, the writer intends to distinguished the aspects which empower women from those which do not. In the other words, this mythology is a relevant way to understand Christology in Sumba.
