Rövid leírás:

Geoffrey P. Miller argues that the history of the Israelite people from Genesis to 2 Kings contains a well-organized, cogent, and comprehensive set of ideas about political obligation and governmental design. The Bible explores these issues, not through discursive analysis in the style of Greek philosophy, but rather through careful management of the narrative frame. Miller argues that these texts address questions central to later political thought: obligation, anarchy, patriarchy, consent, revelation, jurisprudence, sovereignty, and the comparative analysis of political institutions. Overall, the Bible endorses constitutional monarchy as the best form of government. In this sense the Bible can be considered as one of the earliest political philosophies of the western world.

The Hebrew Bible as one of the earliest political philosophies.

Geoffrey P. Miller argues that the narratives from Genesis to Second Kings present a sophisticated argument for political obligation and for limited monarchy as the best form of government. The Hebrew Bible, in this sense, can be considered as one of the earliest political philosopies of the western world.The Garden of Eden story identifies revelation, consent, utopia, natural law, ownership, power, patriarchy, and justice as bases for political obligation. The stories of life after the expulsion from Eden argue that government and law are essential for a decent life. The Genesis narratives recognize patriarchal authority but also identifies limits based on kinship, higher authority and power. The book of Exodus introduces the topic of political authority, arguing that nationhood strictly dominates over other forms of political organization. The Sinai narratives explore two important sources of authority: revelation and consent of the governed. The book of Joshua presents a theory of sovereignty conceived of as the exclusive and absolute control over territory. The book of Judges examines two types of national government: military rule and confederacy. It argues that military rule is inappropriate for peacetime conditions and that the confederate form is not strong enough to deliver the benefits of nationhood. The books of Samuel and Kings consider theocracy and monarchy. The bible endorses monarchy as the best available form of government provided that the king is constrained by appropriate checks and balances. Contrary to the view of some scholars, no text from Genesis to Second Kings disapproves of monarchy as a form of government.
