Title: The child in the Bible
Description: Nineteen biblical scholars collaborate to provide an informed and focused treatment of biblical perspectives on children and childhood. Looking at the Bible through the lens of the child exposes new aspects of biblical texts and themes. Some of the authors focus on selected biblical texts, Genesis, Proverbs, Mark, and more, while others examine such biblical themes as training and disciplining, children and the image of God, the metaphor of Israel as a child, and so on. In discussing a vast array of themes and questions, the chapters also invite readers to reconsider the roles that children can or should play in religious communities today. - Publisher.
