The biblical vision focuses on several different concepts of the role of humanity in the world. The authors concentrate on a model of the biblical myth of Adam, who is charged with ruling over other creatures and protecting them from danger. This model, which comes from the older mythical fabric of the ancient Near East, is then transformed both theologically and ethically in a Hellenistic era. It is from the end of the Hellenistic period that the New Testament texts about Adam and Christ appear. The article continues to focus on the shape of the human-creature relationship, focusing on the current world and the social problems created by the insufficient protection of the world. The subsequent challenges come from biblical paradigms: humanity as protector, wise housekeeper and caretaker. The authors work with particular regard to the Christian paradigms, but they will also mention in passing the current models in force in Judaism and Islam.

The study deals with the issue of justice in the context of divine and natural law. The starting point is an analysis of selected texts from the Book of Judges, which are linked to Judge Deborah. The philosophical interpretation is based on the distinction between divine and natural law, with the main emphasis on the transcendent nature of both types of law. In the context of biblical interpretation, a judge is understood as a person who does not create law, only looks at natural law and listens to the voice of God, who reveals his will and his law. The judge, like the prophet, is the mediator between the transcendent space of God's being and will and between the immanent space of man's earthly existence. The study presents some ways of applying transcendental law in the daily practice of Israel and identifies possible problems with the current understanding of law, which is not tied to transcendent principles.
