Biblical Reception is rapidly becoming the go-to annual publication for all matters related to the reception of the bible. The annual addresses all kinds of use of the bible in art, music, literature, film and popular culture, as well as in the history of interpretation.

For this fourth edition of the annual, guest editor David Tollerton has commissioned pieces specifically on the use of the bible in one film: Exodus: Gods and Kings and these chapters consider how the film uses the bible, and how the bible functions within the film.

Guest editor: David Tollerton is Lecturer in Jewish Studies and Contemporary Biblical Cultures at the University of Exeter, UK. Biblical Reception Editors: David J.A. Clines is Professor Emeritus of Biblical Studies at the University of Sheffield, UK. J. Cheryl Exum is Professor Emeritus of Biblical Studies at the University of Sheffield, UK.
