  1. Ethical Criticism of the Bible: The Case of Divinely Mandated Genocide.Wes Morriston - 2012 - Sophia 51 (1):117-135.
    Taking as a test case biblical texts in which the God of Israel commands the destruction other nations, the present paper defends the legitimacy and the necessity of ethical criticism of the Bible.
