“An Ethical Dimension of Mission: A Narrative Analysis of Daniel 1”

Abstract

The theology of mission is one of the theological concepts that permeates the Hebrew Bible, of which the book of Daniel is not excluded. An analysis of the narrative of Daniel 1 presents the theme of mission and its ethical dimension for a common theological insight. Through narrative analysis, this study shows the relationship between biblical ethics and theology of mission, where believers can be light bearers to the world through observance of biblical morals and values.
