Description

Product Description The Bible contains a variety of passages that defend the poor and champion the cause of the oppressed, but are these ancient texts able to find a voice in confronting injustice in the modern world? 'Bible and Justice' examines the ways in which the Bible can speak to contemporary poverty, environmental issues, and state-sponsored violence, whilst exploring the difficulties that arise when ancient concepts of justice are applied to modern ideals. The book covers a range of topics from human rights to deaf biblical interpretation and from hospitality to corporate globalization. Broad and accessible, 'Bible and Justice' will be an invaluable resource for students of religious and biblical studies. Review 'A truly major contribution to discourse about the Bible and Ethics.' --Norman K. Gottwald 'A wonderful resource for anyone interested in the discourse centring around the Bible and justice, or ethics.' --Theological Book Review 'A wonderful resource for anyone interested in the discourse centring around the Bible and justice, or ethics.' --Theological Book Review About the Author Matthew J.M. Coomber is an Assistant Professor of Theology in Biblical Studies at St. Ambrose University, Iowa, USA.
