What does the Bible say about money? This volume presents the researches of 18 international biblical scholars at Ansgarskolens Norwegian Summer Academy for Biblical Studies. Papers include:


     The Prophets on Trade: Did They Consider it a Canaanite Affair?


     Two Categories of Loans in the Old Testament


     Give Willingly and Do Not Expect Anything? A Biblical View on Loans and Interest


     Government and Economy in the Hebrew Bible: Taxes and Related Issues


     State and Temple Economy in the Levant in the Persian and Hellenistic Periods


     Economics and Poverty: Negotiating the Spectrum of Personal Wealth or Shared Resources


     Proportionate and Sufficient Wealth: Financial Transparency in Paul's Collection for the Saints in Jerusalem


     Engaging the New Testament and the Welfare State


     Divine Plenty, Human Thriftiness: A Canonical Reading of (Un)Limited Resources


This unusual volume is a useful resource for researchers, but also a coursebook to be used in the classroom and a comprehensive introduction to biblical economic ethics in general.
