In this book, Van Seters seeks to provide a summary sketch of the J history and to make clear how the Priestly corpus has been composed as a supplement to the Yahwist with a radically different form and point of view that has obscured the Yahwist's historical narrative and theological perspective. Part one lays out in simple terms the basic form, structure, and theological perspective of the Yahwist's history,... The essays in part two are intended to bring the scholarly discussion of Van Seters's earlier books on the Yahwist more up to date, and their order corresponds roughly to the order of the narrative in the first part of the book....</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">John Van Seters</note> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Pentateuch</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible -- Criticism, interpretation, etc History</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">222.106</classification> <classification authority="ddc">J65-S50</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9781575062860</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/11262/12.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/11262/12.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordContentSource authority="marcorg"/> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2023-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071009.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
