"This one-stop reference book on the vital relationship between Scripture and ethics offers helpful orientation and perspective for students, pastors, and scholars. Written to respond to the movement among biblical scholars and ethicists to recover the Bible for moral formation, it is the best reference work available on the intersection of these two fields. The volume shows how Christian Scripture and Christian ethics are necessarily intertwined and offers up-to-date treatment of five hundred biblical, traditional, and contemporary topics, including tithing, euthanasia, the Trinity, population policy and control, healthcare systems in Scripture, the seven deadly sins, idolatry, the image of God, terrorism, the Sermon on the Mount, vegetarianism, and the Dead Sea Scrolls. The stellar ecumenical list of contributors consists of more than two hundred leading scholars from the fields of biblical studies and ethics" -- Publisher description.… (more)

A wonderful resource offering articles on the ethics of every biblical book as well as discussions of relevant biblical material on key concepts and issues.

While less broad and inclusive than many readers might prefer, this volume will no doubt be of use in both college and seminary, alongside more and less ecumenically minded counterparts, in mapping out and shedding light upon difficult, sometimes treacherous, scriptural and ethical terrain.
