Holy Places in Biblical and Extrabiblical Traditions

Proceedings of the Bonn-Leiden-Oxford Colloquium on Biblical Studies. Edited by Jochen Flebbe. Religion is beyond doubt inseparably connected with questions about holy locations and places. These places gain their meaning not by their physical determination, but by human construction. The contributions of this volume try to shape this phenomenon for selected texts of the Old and New Testament and of Philo of Alexandria.
