Resumen:
The papers in this anthology represent the proceedings of the "Anthropology and the Bible" session from the European Association of Biblical Studies Annual Meeting held in Lincoln (July 2009). The main aim of the session is to foster critical uses of social anthropology for reading biblical stories but also for understanding the history and archaeology of ancient Palestine, and the interpretative context of modern biblical scholarship and ancient Near Eastern studies related to the Bible as well. The papers of this volume reflect all these perspectives and stand as a critical renewal of the uses of anthropology and sociology in biblical scholarship as different from social-science approaches. Contributors include: David Chalcraft, Anne Katrine Gudme, Niels Peter Lemche, Philippe Guillaume, Eveline van der Steen, Philippe Wajdenbaum, and Emanuel Pfoh.
