This volume assesses past, theoretically engaged work on Israelite
religion and presents new approaches to particular problems and
larger interpretive and methodological questions. It gathers
previously unpublished research by senior and mid-career scholars
well known for their contributions in the area of social theory and
the study of Israelite religion and by junior scholars whose
writing is just beginning to have a serious impact on the field.
The volume begins with a critical introduction by the editor.
Topics of interest to the contributors include gender, violence,
social change, the festivals, the dynamics of shame and honor, and
the relationship of text to ritual. The contributors engage theory
from social and cultural anthropology, sociology, post-colonial
studies, and ritual studies. Theoretical models are evaluated in
light of the primary data, and some authors modify or adapt theory
to increase its utility for biblical studies.
