Previous studies that compared the biblical and the ANE laws focused primarily on their similarities and developed theories of direct borrowing. This ignored the fact that legal transplants were common in ancient societies. This study, in contrast, aims to identify similarities and dissimilarities in order to pursue an understanding of the underlying values promoted within these slave laws and the interests they protected. To do so, certain innovative methodologies were applied. The biblical laws examined present two diverse legal concepts that contrast to the ANE concepts: (1) all agents are regarded as persons and should be treated accordingly, and (2) all legal subjects are seen as free, dignified, and self-determining human beings. In addition, the biblical laws often distinguish an offender's "criminal intent," by which a criminal's rights are also considered. Based on these features, the biblical laws are able to articulate YHWH's humanitarian concerns and the basic concepts of human rights presented in Deuteronomy. 410 0$aBeihefte zur Zeitschrift fu?r die alttestamentliche Wissenschaft ;$vVolume 464. 606 $aSlavery in the Bible$xCriticism, interpretation, etc 606 $aHuman rights$xCriticism, interpretation, etc 610 $aDeuteronomy. 610 $ahuman rights. 610 $aslave law. 610 $aslavery. 615 0$aSlavery in the Bible$xCriticism, interpretation, etc. 615 0$aHuman rights$xCriticism, interpretation, etc. 676 $a222.1506 686 $aBC 7525$2rvk 700 $aTsai$b Daisy Yulin$01524236 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788825403321 996 $aHuman rights in Deuteronomy$93764907 997 $aUNINA
