The projected thirty-volume Encyclopedia of the Bible and Its Reception (EBR) is intended to serve as a comprehensive guide to the current state of knowledge on the background, origins, and development of the canonical texts of the Bible as they were accepted in Judaism and Christianity. Unprecedented in breadth and scope, this encyclopedia also documents the history of the Bible's interpretation and reception across the centuries, not only in Judaism and Christianity, but also in literature, visual art, music, film, and dance, as well as in Islam and other religious traditions and new religious movements.

The EBR is also available online.

Following in the tradition of earlier volumes in this highly useful and extraordinarily important series, volume 15 provides a virtual lifetime of scholarship for students of the Bible and its reception.

Karlstadt, Andreas Bodenstein von (Frank M. Hasel; Silver Spring, Md., USA)
Hasel notes the core difference between Luther and Karlstadt when he writes "What Luther would permit, Karlstadt would compel; where Luther would introduce changes and innovation gradually, Karlstadt would push for direct action." It's a keenly and smartly written distillation of a very complex life Hasel here provides.

Kataphatic Theology I. Christianity (Christophe Chalamet; Geneva, Switzerland)
"Kataphatic theology affirms something about God, on the basis of God's condescending movement or as an attempt to bring God down to the level of human language." Chalamet then describes that dogma as it manifests itself in Christian theology in a quite accessible way.

Kennicott, Benjamin (Anselm C. Hagedorn; Osnabruck, Germany)
Hagedorn's very concise biography of Kennicott presents a lot of information in a short entry. As is the case of so many of the EBR's entries, a little goes a very long way.

Killigrew, Anne (Rafael Vélez Núnez; Cadiz, Spain)
Anne Killigrew (1660-1685) was an English Restoration poet and painter. "Anne Killigrew's painting and poetry voice a heroic female world alien to libertinism." Another example of a person with whom I was not familiar and yet now find myself very intrigued by: a strong woman in a time when being such was both unique and potentially hazardous.

Kiss VIII. Film (John Boyles; Abilene, Tex., USA)
The 'biblical kiss', as it appears in film, is the subject tackled by Boyles (after other authors examine it in the Bible, Judaism, Christianity, music, etc.). "Two categories of kiss from the Bible appear on film. First are scenes of familial or intimate kissing. ... Second are scenes of kisses within a religious context..." The carefulness and thoroughness of the Encyclopedia are once again on display here. There is simply so much from the Bible which has impacted literally every corner of modern life.

Labor (Childbirth) IV. Christianity E. World Christianity (Joanne Davis; London, United Kingdom)
Davis notes in her contribution focusing on World Christianity, that "There are two concerns in World Christianity with respect to the biblical reception of labor and childbearing. The first concerns the significance of passages in the Bible ... The second concern is the great incidence of maternal and infant death in childbirth." Her description in what follows is incredibly informative. And her essay demonstrates, as though such were needed, the incredibly important contributions to biblical studies and religion that women are making and have made.

Lambert, Wilfred George (Alan Millard; Leamington Spa, United Kingdom)
"Wilfred George Lambert (1926-2011), a leading Assyriologist, was born in Birmingham, England, studied at Cambridge University, moving from Classics to Hebrew and Akkadian under D. Winton Thomas and C. P. T. Winckworth, to graduate in 1950." Lambert was a giant in the field and a fixture at the annual meeting of the Society for Old Testament Study. He deserves the immortalization he herein receives.

Lamentations, Book of III. Christianity B. Medieval Times and Reformation Era (George Ferzoco; Bristol, United Kingdom)
With respect to the Books of Lamentations in the Reformation and Post-Reformation periods, Ferzoco remarks, "It is not surprising that given this powerful presence in Christian spirituality, Lamentations has clear resonances in medieval literature. Key passages in the writings of Dante, Petrarch, Boccaccio, and Chaucer make clear allusions to this book." The whole entry on Lamentations is quite good, and hence, commended.

Lamentations, Book of V. Visual Arts (Paul Joyce; London, United Kingdom)
Joyce's examination of the book of Lamentations' representations in the visual arts is superb. It teaches much with both wisdom and profundity.

Laodicea I. Greco-Roman Antiquity and New Testament (Balbina Bäbler; Gottingen, Germany)
Laodicea, famous from the book of Revelation, is here fully described as a locale in Greco-Roman antiquity and New Testament times. 'The city was well known for its medical school...' and many other fascinating facts are presented.

Lazy, Idle VI. Visual Arts (Ayla Lepine; Cambridge, United Kingdom)
The subject as understood by visual artists is considered beautifully and includes reference to my favorite artist: "In Albrecht Dürer's interpretation, Christ's alertness to the presence of the angel in the upper left of the image is directly contrasted with an apostle poignantly resting his exhausted weight on a tree stump." There is much to learn of laziness indeed.

Droit de rétractation

Instructions for revocation

Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods

Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)

Instructions for revocation

Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,

on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.

You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.

In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.

Consequences of the revocation

If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.

We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.

You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.

You bear the direct costs for returning the products.

You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.

Criteria for exclusion or expiry

The revocation right is not available for contracts

for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
