Call For Papers: The “Ethics and Biblical Interpretation” consultation will host two sessions in Atlanta in 2010. The first is an invited session on “Evil, Power, and the Bible.” The second is on the theme “The Bible and Rights.” Topics here could include precursors of claims about human rights found in scripture; the use of the Bible in rights-movements, especially the civil rights movement; tensions between political rhetoric in the Bible and contemporary uses of rights-language, etc. This session is OPEN, and we invite paper proposals that address this theme.
