Love I. Hebrew Bible/Old Testament and Ancient Near East (Thomas Römer; Paris, France)
This entry on 'love' in the Hebrew Bible/ Ancient Near East begins "Contrary to many modern languages, biblical Hebrew does not make a distinction in vocabulary between 'love' and 'friendship.' The same root ahab is used for both terms (Wallis)." Römer then leads readers on a journey through the literature related to love and marriage, homosexual love, dangerous love, divine love and human love, YHWH's love for Israel, other depictions of YHWH's love, and finally love and loyalty. This entry is one of the best that I've read in the volume.

Love V. Christianity C. Modern Europe and America (Christophe Chalamet; Geneva, Switzerland)
Chalemet's contribution to the larger article on 'love' focuses on modern Europe and North America. He begins, however, in the period just beyond the lives of the Magisterial Reformers, examining the way 'love' was understood by such thinkers asFrancis of Sales,' Spener, Feuerbach, Kierkegaard, Nygren, and Mandela among several others. It's an engaging and informative overview of what is certainly an extremely important topic.

Love XI. Film (Sandie Gravett; Boone, N.C., USA)
Gravett opens her treatment of the topic of 'love' in film thusly: "Many films are built around conceptions of love, sometimes with direct reference to the Bible and other times via allusion." From this launching pad she treats the intersection of films and their treatment of love in intersection with the bible. Her discussion is quite eye opening (in the sense that she is able to tease out the biblical theme of love from films where it does not appear on the surface).

Lust IV. Literature (Anthony Swindell; Llanidloes, United Kingdom)
Swindell's efforts center on the appearance of the concept of Lust in literature. So, he observes, "The biblical warnings and prohibitions against lust (Deut 5:2; Matt 5:28; 1 John 2:15-17), together with such admonitory tales as those of Joseph and Potiphar's Wife, David and Bathsheba, Judith, and Susanna make clear the destructive effects of lust for those who succumb to its promptings. Amongst early literary treatments of Judith, the Old English poem Judith (ca. 1000) goes to some lengths to create a binary opposition between the culpability of Holofernes in his lust and the moral purity of Judith in a version in which she attends a banquet at which Holofernes has already got himself drunk before he meets Judith and which excises the biblical passage in which the heroine adorns herself with jewelry in order to entice the warrior." And thus he illustrates lust in literatur
