SUMMARY
Nidditch here deals with a wide spectrum of war ideologies in the Hebrew Bible, seeking to discover why and how these views might have made sense to biblical writers. She challenges the stereotype of the violent 'Old' Testament. She argues that to understand attitudes about war in the Hebrew Bible is to understand war in general, and how human beings attempt to justify killing and violence.Niditch, Susan is the author of 'War in the Hebrew Bible A Study in the Ethics of Violence', published 1995 under ISBN 9780195098402 and ISBN 0195098404.
