Resumen:
In this paper I wish to present the main characteristics of the interpretive perspectives that the “Anthropology and the Bible” session is expected to foster. The idea is moving beyond rationalistic paraphrases of biblical images, favouring instead critical anthropological assessments to both the history of Palestine, in its social, political, economic and ideological aspects, and the biblical stories, in order to grasp a serious understanding of their meaning for the ancient scribes that produced them.
