Reciprocidad, vincularidad y transformación : algunas notas sobre la hospitalidad en el Antiguo Testamento

Abstract

From a synchronic perspective and a narrative approach, some encounters in which the characters assume roles of host or guest are presented. Although they have some common elements, each encounter has its own characteristics: causes, motivations, consequences. This confirms the difficulty of making simple and ab- solute statements about "hospitality in the Old Testament". However some notes are proposed that can contribute to the debate: reciprocity, bonding, asymmetry, hostility and transformation.
