Der Mosesegen im Deuteronomium: Eine text-, kompositions- und formkritische Studie zu Deuteronomium 33
Book information
Description
This book is a revised and shortened version of a doctoral dissertation supervised by H. Seebass at the University of Bonn, Germany. Since H.-J. Kittels, Die Stammesspruche Israels (Berlin: unpublished manuscript, 1959), no monograph has been devoted to the so-called tribal sentences in the Pentateuch. For Beyerle it is necessary to take up the task again, since OT scholarship is nowadays much less confident of the possibility of reconstructing premonarchic Israel on the basis of Gen 49 and Deut 33. Contrary to Kittel, who worked on both chapters, Beyerle limits himself to Deut 33. He argues that Gen 49, or at least its frame, seems to belong to the Priestly source (p. 9). This argument is quite puzzling, because P-edited texts can theoretically contain as much old material as Deuteronomistic-edited texts.
