Abstract: In “Thinking Beyond the Hebrew Bible: A Response to Christian Frevel,” Alma Brodersen makes a further contribution to analyzing the potential development from bodily to abstract thinking in the Hebrew Bible. Her response widens the focus to include ancient texts outside the Hebrew Bible, namely from the Book of Ben Sira and the Dead Sea Scrolls. These texts date from the later period of the development from bodily to abstract thinking outlined in Frevel’s contribution. At the same time, they clearly connect thinking with various body parts. These findings seem to contradict the argument that there was a development towards abstract thinking and raise questions for future research.
