Paul D. Hanson traces American history back to colonial times, paying close attention to the role that biblical tradition has played in shaping the national story of the United States. He then presents a detailed study of politics in the Bible that is framed by the challenges and crises in American history. Students will learn how deeply religion has influenced both domestic and international policy and contributed to the nation's sense of identity and purpose. After laying these biblical-historical foundations, Hanson considers a method of biblical interpretation that can speak to the diverse nation of today. He proposes an inclusive form of public moral discourse that invites full participation by members of all religious and philosophical groups. 651 0 $a United States $x Church history. 650 0 $a Bible and politics $z United States. 650 0 $a Politics in the Bible. 650 0 $a Christianity and politics $z United States. 650 7 $a Bible and politics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01744447 650 7 $a Christianity and politics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00859736 650 7 $a Politics in the Bible. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069974 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Church history. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411629 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213012425.0 952 $l PRAX771 $d 20151202011601.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0DD9524681F911E58D57CB8FDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
