An Update on My Biblical Genocide Book

January 26, 2021 by Randal

I began writing this book one month ago today: December 26, 2020. I am now at 85,000 words and hope to finish the final two chapters in the next ten days or so. My special contribution to this debate is captured in my subtitle: “Biblical Genocide in the Light of Moral Intuition“. (I will announce the title later.)

Here are the chapter titles (which, as with all else, is still as yet subject to revision):


Foreword: There is No Magic Key

Introduction: The Blood-Soaked Soil of Canaan

Chapter 1: Killing the Joneses

Chapter 2: Joshua and the International Criminal Court

Chapter 3: Taming a Dangerous Text

Chapter 4: Moral Intuition and Moral Reasoning

Chapter 5: Moral Knowledge through Intimate Acquaintance

Chapter 6: Scenes from a Genocide: On the Canaanites of Central Africa

Chapter 7: Interpreting the Bible: Five Guiding Principles

Chapter 8: The Genocide Apologists

Chapter 9: The Just War Interpreters

Chapter 10: The Spiritualizers

Chapter 11: The Providential Errantists

Chapter 12: Why is it all so complicated?
