(2002) The Martin Buber Reader, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
I do not imagine that you will expect me to give you any so-called character sketches of biblical leaders. That would be an impossible undertaking, for the Bible does not concern itself with character, nor with individuality, and one cannot draw from it any description of characters or individualities. The Bible depicts something else, namely, persons in situations. The Bible is not concerned with the difference between these persons, but the difference between the situations in which the person, the creaturely person, the appointed person, stands his test or fails is all important to it.
