Zusammenfassung:Research on children in the bible and biblical lands has continued to reveal more children and more voices. This essay begins with an overview of two entry points into the subject, looking first at the field of childhood and religion, and second at the field of children in the bible and biblical lands. Concentrating on the second entry point, the essay moves to a discussion of the recent volumes embracing literary criticism as well as scholarship on children in material culture and biblical texts through a comparative lens. This essay includes a discussion of the next wave of scholarship: those scholars recently finished with or currently working on dissertations, and those scholars reassessing previous works on children in the bible. It ends with an eye to the future, thinking about naming the field and how scholarship on children in the bible will continue to evolve.
