Expressions of Religion in Israel


Program Unit Type: Section
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The research unit "Expressions of Religion in Israel" invites paper proposals for two sessions at the Berlin meeting. The first will focus on Religion and the Jewish Colony at Elephantine. Under this heading, we welcome engagement with a wide array evidence and employment of various methodological approaches. Topics of interest may include specific religious issues addressed in the Elephantine papyri, the relationship between the Elephantine Jewish community and surrounding Egyptian communities, religious syncretisms, and comparisons between the Elephantine community and other contemporary expressions of Judaism (e.g., Levantine, Mesopotamian). The second session is an open session. Papers for this session may treat any expression of religion in or related to ancient Israel.
