The characters and episodes of these tales are read against a backdrop of social competition for the cultural value of honor. Each of the tales of Daniel 1-6 is analyzed, revealing a comparison that is sustained throughout the compilation and that pits the Judean tradition in competition with a dominant foreign tradition. The dynamics of comparison and competition are explored in each tale with the help of social-scientific models depicting honor and exploring the related dynamics of purity, patronage, virtue, limited good, and envy. This work is particularly useful for scholars and students interested in social-scientific criticism and the value of that methodology for Hebrew Bible study, as well as for those interested in Daniel, honor and shame, ancient rhetoric, and cultural resistance in the postexilic period. 410 0$aBiblical Interpretation Series ;$v74. 517 3 $aA Social-Scientific Reading of Daniel 1-6 606 $aDaniel (Book of the Bible) 606 $aSocial scientific criticism of sacred works 615 0$aDaniel (Book of the Bible) 615 0$aSocial scientific criticism of sacred works. 676 $a224/.5067 700 $aKirkpatrick$b Shane$01519457 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784034903321 996 $aCompeting for Honor$93757576 997 $aUNINA
