| Summary: | In the past thirty years, the field of Old Testament theology has largely resisted the idea of a unifying centre, and has instead embraced a plurality of methods to reflect an emphasis on the diversity of perspectives within the Old Testament itself as well as its readership.

To this end the value of hospitality is posited as an organising principle for a new way forward, and preliminarily supported by an examination of Genesis 18-19 as a foundational text. |
