Requirements for Participation

Bible and Ethics


Program Unit Type: Section
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: This year we will have one methodological session (on “Focal Values and Criteria for Biblical Ethics”) and two thematic sessions. We invite paper proposals for the two thematic sessions: 1. “Dealing with Foreigners / Migration”; and 2. “Social Justice”. Potential presenters are expected to include an analysis of specific biblical texts and not only focus on a discussion of sociological (and other) theories. They are also encouraged to look at similarities and differences between the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament or between one of the two Testaments and relevant extra-biblical material that sheds light on the subject.
