Social Visions Of The Hebrew Bible

$65.00

Plein’s full-scale study of the Hebrew Bible uncovers the social vision of the Hebrew Bible. He examines the biblical statements about social ethics within a framework provided by Israel’s social institutions, the social locations of its actors, and the historical struggles for power and survival that are reflected in the transmission of the texts. Each major section of the Hebrew Bible is investigated through the lens of a representative scripture passage. This clear and comprehensive introduction reveals the rich mosaic of social visions in ancient Israel.
