Requirements for Participation

Bible and Ethics


Program Unit Type: Section
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: We invite papers that discuss the so-called “Tun-Ergehen-Zusammenhang”, i.e. the relation between people’s deeds and their wellbeing. In other words, to what extent can individuals be regarded as ethically responsible for their fate and fortune? We welcome papers that explore this question through a study of Old Testament/Hebrew Bible and/or the New Testament. The session will seek to bring together exegetes of the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament in order to discuss similarities, differences, and intertextual connections between the various ethical traditions in biblical literature and their respective contexts in response to this question.
