Summary |
Using the case of Israel's attitude towards her eastern neighbours, the Moabites and Ammonites, as portrayed in Tanakh, the Hebrew Bible, this thesis explores the way in which a religious community establishes its sense of identity and its boundaries in relation to other groups. Tanakh exhibits a dialectic between eirenic and hostile viewpoints |
