Introduction
    In spite of the apparent differences, biblical privacy ethics should guide contemporary privacy ethics as well as it should solve contrasts that exist between the ancient concept of privacy invasion and the modern interpretation of the same, concluding that although distinct, both can be considered "privacy." 31 While not expressly referred to as privacy and, of course, in the light of different technologies and a different level of business growth, treatment of privacy dilemmas in biblical literature still has much to say about re-treatment of privacy dilemmas in biblical literature (Roberts, 2012; Glass & Cahn, 2017; Gowing, 2018). Biblical culture is often said to be ideal to extreme and it has made privacy sensitive matter which needs utmost attention, like the modern inventions of storing things and data on cloud today makes it difficult to protect privacy. Today, the collection method of personal data—no matter for how legitimate it could be—can lead to negative consequences of use (Roberts, 2012; Glass & Cahn, 2017; Gowing, 2018). Individual privacy can exist only to the degree that privacy is considered a moral right of intrinsic value that is necessary to preserve because of its fragility. An important part of biblical literature is the creation of a moral code and rules for proper conduct, structuring it as a place to get the best explanation about the moral rights of privacy.
Privacy and Biblical Overview
    At first, it is noteworthy that Bible does not discuss specifically about privacy. This has to do, in part, with the fact that privacy in the societies in which the Bible was published was not a major problem (Roberts, 2012; Glass & Cahn, 2017; Gowing, 2018). Privacy was a rarity in those settings, as we imagine it was. There were people living in near proximity to others (Roberts, 2012; Glass & Cahn, 2017; Gowing, 2018). A shared room for sleeping, bathing, and other kinds of intimate activity was not unusual for families to share. In addition, the majority of individuals lived in relatively small groups where little could be kept hidden. Even the Roman Empire’s cities provided very little that we would call privacy, unless one of them became rich. So, the Bible appears to assume that life is shared and that it is not possible to keep one’s actions secret. In general, anyone who wanted privacy needed to flee to the countryside (Mark 1:35-39)
    However, this does not mean that all personal acts are intended for...
