Abstract:
This article, about the relationships between Israel and the surrounding peoples during the 1st millennium BC, shows how some texts of the Old Testament develop a positive attitude to Israel’s neighbors, highlighting its gratitude to these nations. So, in the history of the Old Testament, the image of Israel is gradually changing from a specificity of separation to a singularity of integration and gratefulness toward others. Israel expresses its love and debt to the different groups who have assisted in its history : Philistines, Arameans, among others.
