In Dirt, Greed, and Sex, L. William Countryman shows how biblical conceptions regarding sexual behavior arose from concerns for purity and from cultures in which women and children were often conceived as property. What biblical texts say about sex often arises from concerns about dirt and greed.
This newly revised edition of Dirt, Greed, and Sex takes up recent studies of sexual ethics in light of the biblical materials. A new chapter evaluates recent proposals for a normative "ethic of creation," and in a concluding chapter Countryman offers his own positive statement of a New Testament ethic.
