Identitetens förändring? : En innehållsanalys av Andra Kungaboken och Esra

The change of collective identity? A content analysis of the texts in second King 22–23 and Ezra 9–10. With the use of modern theories on identity theory, ethnicity and sexuality, apart from content analysis, this paper aims to broaden our knowledge of these ancient texts. In this paper the case is made that what happens in Ezra, with the mixed marriages crises, could be understood according to differences in coping with identity crisis as shown by the two groups in the text, that is a style of Normative processing orientation versus a style of Normative processing orientation. Regarding Josia the case is made that what happens in the text could be understood from the point that the text is addressing different views on the formation and understanding of an early Israelite collective identity.
