Supernatural punishment, spiritual violence and the Gospel of Matthew
Approaching Religion 12 (1):18-35 (2022)
Abstract
Spiritual violence is a modern concept expressing the abusive aspects of religion. This article observes the potential for spiritual violence within the rhetoric of the Gospel of Matthew, a principal text of the dominant world religion. Utilizing the supernatural punishment hypothesis of religion as a theoretical background, this cross-disciplinary analysis opens perspectives on the use of religious power in the past and the present.Other Versions
