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?
This selection of papers, compiled from the proceedings of the 2008
Conference on Bible and Justice at the University of Sheffield,
address this question. Bible and Justice: Ancient Texts, Modern
Challenges explores the various ways in which the Bible might
effectively confront an array of human rights, poverty and
environmental concerns, while considering the difficulties that
arise when ancient concepts of justice are applied to modern
socio-political ideals. Written to be accessible to those outside
the field of biblical studies, this volume will be a valuable
resource for both academics and non-academics alike.
