What emerges is that the Israelites did not practice a religion. Rather, they were an ethnos, or as this book describes it, an ethnic identity, who lived out a particular way of life and culture the customs of the fathers. It is to belong to a people who obtained their collective identity, honor, and sense of worth from their socialization and membership in Israel and from the social convention of loyalty to their rich cultural tradition. It was to belong to a \"world,\" or having a perspective on the world with its own quality of \"knowledge,\" which, among other things, preferred collectivism over individualism, and orthopraxy over orthodoxy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMarkus Cromhout is a Research Associate in the Department of New Testament Studies at the University of Pretoria.
