After identifying the need for a legitimate philosophical approach to Israelite religion, the volume traces the history of interdisciplinary relations and shows how descriptive varieties of philosophy of religion can aid the clarification of the Hebrew Bible s own metaphysical, epistemological, and moral assumptions. Two new interpretative methodologies are developed and subsequently applied through an introduction to what the biblical texts took for granted about the nature of religious language, the concept of deity, the properties of Yhwh, the existence of gods, religious epistemology, and the relation between religion and morality." 410 0$aResources for biblical study ;$vno. 70. 606 $aPhilosophy and religion 606 $aGod (Judaism) 606 $aJewish ethics$xPhilosophy 615 0$aPhilosophy and religion. 615 0$aGod (Judaism) 615 0$aJewish ethics$xPhilosophy. 676 $a221/.0601 700 $aGericke$b Jaco$01129050 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961299303321 996 $aThe Hebrew Bible and philosophy of religion$94479860 997 $aUNINA
