Opis

This monograph demonstrates that the book of Genesis is a result of highly creative, hypertextual reworking of Deuteronomy. This detailed reworking consists of around 1,000 strictly sequentially organized thematic, and at times also linguistic correspondences between Genesis and Deuteronomy. They explain numerous surprising features of Genesis.
