This article traces recent trajectories of appeals to migration and refugee studies in the study of the Hebrew Bible and Old Testament. While the topics of migration and mobility have been central to biblical scholars’ investigations for more than five decades, applications of social scientific hermeneutics are relatively recent. This essay reviews English-language compositions that explicitly cite the work of scholars in the fields of mobility, migration, and refugee studies. The employment of migration studies as a heuristic framework by biblical scholars has often mirrored the composite nature of migration studies as an interdisciplinary field.
