At the same time, the author hopes to further the discussion by interacting with numerous scholars in the field, providing an extensive bibliography of relevant works. Klingbeil defines the basic terms used in ritual studies and explains the concepts involved in interpreting biblical ritual. He offers a broad history of the study of biblical ritual, beginning with the critiques of ritual found in the Old Testament prophetic books and surveying attitudes toward ritual down to modern times. Drawing on the fields of anthropology and sociology, as well as his decade of work in the field, Klingbeil presents a comprehensive reading strategy for biblical ritual texts. In addition, he explores connections between ritual studies and theological research. This ground-breaking study promises to generate discussion about biblical ritual and provides an excellent introduction to this growing field of study for students and scholars. 410 0$aBulletin for biblical research supplements ;$v1. 606 $aRites and ceremonies in the Bible$9lat$2NLI$8PreferredLanguageHeading 606 $aRitual in the Bible$9lat$2NLI$8PreferredLanguageHeading 615 7$aRites and ceremonies in the Bible 615 7$aRitual in the Bible 676 $a264 700 $aKlingbeil$b Gerald A.$f1964-$01547033 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781323303321 996 $aBridging the Gap$93803029 997 $aUNINA
