Description
Summary:According to Eckart Otto, in ancient Israelite Society, ethos developed from law. In order for this to occur, a specifically theological reasoning had to be provided to life by particular ethical standards, even if they were not sanctioned by law. This article explores the Covenant Code and deuteronomic law with regard to their argumentative strategies to support both ethos and law. As it turns out, most argumentative strategies are not secondary, as Otto seems to suggest, but are supposed to situate both legal and ethical regulation in their respective social settings. There is, however, a noticeable tendency especially in Deuteronomy to subsume both law and ethos under some of the same theological reasoning and thus to blur the boundaries between law and ethos in favor of a comprehensive concept of divine command.
