Land, Credit and Crisis: Agrarian Finance in the Hebrew Bible: BibleWorld

Autor Philippe Guillaume
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 ian 2012
Land, Credit and Crisis presents a new understanding of the financial culture of the Bible. Biblical Palestine was characterized by an over-abundance of arable land combined with a chronic lack of manpower and agricultural credit - circumstances which lead to much prophetic fulminating against merchants and the rich. The book reveals how the financial instruments and institutions of the time reflected a tough economic realism and argues that the image of the biblical prophet as a champion of social justice must be revised.
