In order to shed light on the various manifestations of the divine courtroom, this volume consists of essays by scholars of the ancient Near East, Hebrew Bible, Second Temple Judaism, early Christianity, Talmud, Islam, medieval Judaism, and classical Greek literature. Contributions to the volume primarily center upon three related facets of the divine courtroom: the role of the divine courtroom in the earthly legal system; the divine courtroom as the site of historical justice; and the divine courtroom as the venue in which God is called to answer for his own unjust acts. 410 0$aBiblical interpretation series ;$vVolume 132. 606 $aComparative religious law$vCongresses 606 $aReligion and justice$vCongresses 606 $aJustice$xReligious aspects$vCongresses 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aComparative religious law 615 0$aReligion and justice 615 0$aJustice$xReligious aspects 676 $a202/.117 702 $aMermelstein$b Ari 702 $aHoltz$b Shalom E. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463834103321 996 $aThe divine courtroom in comparative perspective$92006085 997 $aUNINA
