Abstract

This research aims to examine the current struggles among the people of Sumba, particularly regarding the rampant sale of land by the people of Sumba to migrants. This can happen because there is no correct understanding of the theological meaning and meaning, both biblically and through the Marapu religion/religion, which is owned by the people of Sumba. By using a qualitative research method which is described through a netnographic approach and cross-textual reading, this research results in findings that in the Biblical and religious perspectives of Marapu there is a teaching about the absolute unity between God, man and the land. On the one hand, human life and land are always in a tangle and both are interdependent on one another, and on the other hand human life and land are very dependent on God. The people of Sumba must understand this, so that the correct understanding of the land which is viewed from a theological point of view through the Bible and the Marapu religion (Sumba culture) must be possessed by the people of Sumba. Thus the people of Sumba will not easily sell their land, as a form of their obedience to Allah (Marapu, the Creator)
