The Bible speaks in different ways about minority groups and their rights. The expression "minority" has several meanings in Bible's pages. First of all it is an ethnical minority, a people. Abraham and after that the tribes of Israel were a minority in the land of Egypt. The same minority conquered the Promised land and they became the inhabitants of Canaan land. The story of Israel people is that of a minority fighting to become a majority. Another aspect is that of religious minority. Those who believed in one God fought hardly to resist in the polytheistic world. Again we can see the same story: one fighting against many. But does Bible speaks about any other minorities, besides the ethnical and religious aspect? The answer is yes, there were. It is interesting to see in what way we will be able to discuss the modern "humans rights" in Biblical Israel. A question to be asked is that of what groups were allowed or not to live in the Promised land. |
