Enmity between individuals was an ubiquitious phenomenon in the ancient world. Using the method of legal anthropology this book examines patterns of hate-driven feuding in kinship-based and segmentary societies and applies these insights to biblical law. It defines the fundamental categories of enmity, love, revenge, honor and shame in the context of feuding and it illustrates certain legal actions, such giving false witness, and shows how they are expressions of hateful relationships. Adam proposes that we should understand hate between individuals as a legal construct that becomes visible when lived out as private enmity, a social status that exhibits distinct hallmarks.

Enmity between individuals was an ubiquitious phenomenon in the ancient world. Using the method of legal anthropology this book examines patterns of hate-driven feuding in kinship-based and segmentary societies and applies these insights to biblical law. It defines the fundamental categories of enmity, love, revenge, honor and shame in the context of feuding and it illustrates certain legal actions, such giving false witness, and shows how they are expressions of hateful relationships. Adam proposes that we should understand hate between individuals as a legal construct that becomes visible when lived out as private enmity, a social status that exhibits distinct hallmarks. In kinship-based societies, private hate/enmity was publicly declared and, consequently, was publicly known in one’s own kin and beyond. Private enmity was acted out in feud-like patterns, with a flexibility that allowed opponents to choose between various measures to hurt their opponent. Acting out hate was reciprocal, and it typically escalated and swiftly expanded into one party’s attempt to kill the other and to trigger a blood feud. Finally, private enmity was “transitive†in the sense that opponents at enmity naturally expected solidarity from kin and friends. Adam uses textual analysis to illustrate how the legal construct of hate informs biblical law from the Covenant Code, to Deuteronomic and Priestly Legislation, including the Holiness Code. He also demonstrates how hate forms the backdrop of conflict settlement. Ultimately, by ways of tracing back through the category of private hate and enmity, this book unpacks the meaning of the quintessential command to “Love your neighbor!â€

Utforsk "Hate And Enmity In Biblical Law" av Klaus-Peter Adam

Er du nysgjerrig på hvordan gamle samfunn forsto begrepene hat og fiendskap? Denne banebrytende boken tar deg med på en reise gjennom bibelens lover sett fra et antropologisk perspektiv. "Hate And Enmity In Biblical Law" av Assistant Professor Klaus-Peter Adam avdekker dybe mønstre av hate-drevne konflikter i slektsbaserte samfunn, og hvordan disse mønstrene former de bibelske lovene vi kjenner i dag.

Innsikt i Fiendskap og Diverse Aspekter

Boken er ikke bare en studie; den er en utforskning av hvordan fiendskap kan sees som et juridisk konstrukt. Adam analyserer de grunnleggende konseptene av hat, kjærlighet, hevn, ære og skam i sammenheng med konflikter. Her er noen av de mest interessante punktene:

  • Private fiendskapsmønstre: Lær hvordan private konflikter ble offentlig kjent og handlet ut.
  • Fleksibilitet i konfliktløsning: Erkjenn hvorledes motstandere tilpasset seg og kunne velge mellom ulike tiltak for å skade hverandre.
  • Reciprokitet i hat: Oppdag hvordan hat og fiendskap typisk førte til gjensidige handlinger, ofte med fatale konsekvenser.
  • Solidaritet blant slektninger: Få innsikt i hvordan fiender forventet støtte fra slekt og venner.

Bidrag til Forståelsen av Bibelske Lover

Adam bruker tekstanalyse for å avdekke hvordan det juridiske begrepet hat informerer biblens lover, fra Fryktgrunnlovene I til Deuteronomisk og Prestelegislasjon, inklusiv Hellighetskoden. Denne boken gir en grundig analyse av konfliktløsning i bibelsk kontekst og viser hvordan fiendskap kan forstås for å gi dypere mening til den velkjente formaningen: "Elsk din neste!"

Enten du er student, forsker, eller bare interessert i teologi og samfunnsvitenskap, er "Hate And Enmity In Biblical Law" et viktig verk som vil utvide din forståelse av primitive og moderne forhold mellom mennesker.
