Is There a Controversy With Elefentini?
In some ways I find that inescapable, you know, like I'm drawn to Elefentini because of my interest in Persian period biblical literature. And is the concern there that that sort of biblical focus misconstrues what that place represents or what its literature is? Yeah, that's a very good question. A lot of scholars who are ostensibly working to do religion historical reconstruction and end up doing theology. They want to make claims about ethics, about empire, about God, but they do it cryptically throughElefentini scholarship.
