Program Unit Type: Section
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The Biblical Law section plans three sessions for the 2016 Annual Meeting. We invite proposals for two open sessions on any aspect of the study of biblical law, including work related to cuneiform documents, the Dead Sea Scrolls and other Second Temple Literature, questions of pentateuchal criticism, legal history, gender analysis, social-scientific analysis, and newer methodologies. Together with the Theology of Hebrew Scriptures Section, we will be co-sponsoring a session of invited papers on the topic of theodicy and biblical law, and are interested in including papers on that topic in our open sessions, too. Copies of papers are distributed in advance through our section's Web site (biblicallaw.net).
