Requirements for Participation

Prophecy and Foreign Nations (EABS)


Program Unit Type: Section
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The 2017 meeting of the research unit “Prophecy and foreign nations” will address “foreign nations in the Book of Jeremiah”. Having discussed the foreign nations in the Book of Isaiah in 2016 – with regard to the Book Jeremiah the main questions are: How can the existence of oracles against the foreign nations in the Book of Jeremiah be explained? Is there a connection with other prophetic books? Of course the question whether the position of the OAN in the MT or rather in the LXX is the older one will be part of the discussion, too. Contributions addressing the role of the “foreign nations” in Jeremiah beyond the OAN are welcome as well.
