Conclusions --BackmatterThe monograph considers the relationships of ethical systems in the ancient Near East through a study of warfare in Judah, Israel and Assyria in the eighth and seventh centuries BCE. It argues that a common cosmological and ideological outlook generated similarities in ethical thinking. In all three societies, the mythological traditions surrounding creation reflect a strong connection between war, kingship and the establishment of order. Human kings' military activities are legitimated through their identification with this cosmic struggle against chaos, begun by the divine king at creation. Military violence is thereby cast not only as morally tolerable but as morally imperative. Deviations from this point of view reflect two phenomena: the preservation of variable social perspectives and the impact of historical changes on ethical thinking.The research begins the discussion of ancient Near Eastern ethics outside of Israel and Judah and fills a scholarly void by placing Israelite and Judahite ethics within this context, as well as contributing methodologically to future research in historical and comparative ethics.Beihefte zur Zeitschrift für die alttestamentliche Wissenschaft ;407.Military art and scienceMiddle EastHistoryViolenceReligious aspectsJudaismWarBiblical teachingWarReligious aspectsJudaismMilitary art and scienceMoral and ethical aspectsCosmology.Ethics.History.Ideology.War.Military art and scienceHistory.ViolenceReligious aspectsJudaism.WarBiblical teaching.WarReligious aspectsJudaism.Military art and scienceMoral and ethical aspects.221.6221.8/35502BC 6865rvkCrouch Carly L(Carly Lorraine),1982-1087773MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910780738403321War and ethics in the ancient Near East3703653UNINA01527nas 2200505- 450 99633592020331620220611213021.0(DE-599)ZDB2524213-1(OCoLC)701318076(CKB)1000000000545454(CONSER)--2019204278(EXLCZ)99100000000054545420100608a19999999 --- aengur|n|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierJournal of research in marketing and entrepreneurshipBingley, England :Emerald Group Pub.1471-5201 JRMEJOURNAL OF RESEARCH IN MARKETING & ENTREPRENEURSHIPEntrepreneurshipPeriodicalsMarketingPeriodicalsPublications périodiqueseclasMarketingeclasEntrepriseseclasEsprit d'entrepriseeclasEntrepreneurshipfast(OCoLC)fst00912787Marketingfast(OCoLC)fst01010167Periodicals.fastEntrepreneurshipMarketingPublications périodiques.Marketing.Entreprises.Esprit d'entreprise.Entrepreneurship.Marketing.658.8JOURNAL996335920203316Journal of research in marketing and entrepreneurship2381172UNISA
