Requirements for Participation

Hebrews


Program Unit Type: Section
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The Hebrews Section will hold two sessions in 2015: (1) "Time and Space in Hebrews: Sapiential and Apocalyptic Perspectives." Hebrews' worldview reflects both wisdom and apocalyptic traditions. The writer portrays the action of Christ in terms of heavenly and earthly realms. Past, present, and future time are brought together in a complex way. The perspective is intriguing, yet difficult to categorize. We invite proposals that open up fresh perspectives on the spatial and temporal dimensions of Hebrews by drawing from wisdom writings and apocalyptic texts. The session is jointly sponsored with Wisdom and Apocalypticism in Early Judaism and Early Christianity. (2) "Hebrews, Theology, and Ethics." Papers for this session are by invitation and will explore theological and ethical dimensions of Hebrews from interdisciplinary perspectives.
