Towards a biblical psychology for modern Israel: 10 guides for healthy living

Abstract This article examines the dependence of modern psychology and psychiatry on Greek thought, and specifically call for a Biblical reformulation of mental health with regard to 10 areas: (1) God, nature and creation; (2) men and women; (3) obedience versus disobedience; (4) fathers and sons; (5) mothers and daughters; (6) sibling rivalry and its resolution; (7) self and other: cycle versus development; (8) body and soul; (9) freedom, life and suicide; and finally (10) a hopeful versus a tragic outlook on life.
