The people of whom the biblical texts speak often feel love or
hate; they articulate their sadness, lamentation or joy; they burn
with anger or jealousy; they show fear or pity. It regularly
becomes clear that these representations of emotions are of central
importance for the theological intention of the texts. 1 Samuel
describes the love between David and Jonathan. The book of
anniversaries pays special attention to the happiness of the
parents. The Gospel of Mark tells of the fear of those around
Jesus. In Matthew, Jesus threatens his audience with "wailing and
gnashing of teeth." And the book of Acts underscores the unanimity
that reigns in early Christianity. With this finding, biblical
studies are faced with the task of dealing with the mentioned
aspects of the texts exegetically. The contributions in this volume
therefore show ways of analyzing the meaning of emotions in
biblical texts.
