Description

Explore a deep literary analysis of the Former Prophets in this scholarly work from De Gruyter. The Transjordanian Palimpsest examines specific passages in 2 Sam 19:12-44, 2 Kgs 2:1-18, and Judg 8:4-28 to understand the role of Transjordan in Israelite history. The author argues that this region serves as a liminal space where leaders return with renewed or inaugurated authority. This book traces the redactional development of the Samuel-Kings texts to explain how this literary symbolism emerged. It proposes a hypothesis regarding the continuous updating and combination of texts, a process that began during the early monarchy and continued through the final formation of the Deuteronomistic History. This study provides a detailed look at how various source documents contributed to the final text, making it a valuable resource for those studying ancient history and biblical literature.
