Description

Following thorough analyses of style, mythological content and theological usage, the author proceeds to offer conclusions on the dating and authorship of this passage from the Book of Exodus. This dissertation from the Angelicum in Rome suggests how fragile are our scholarly assumptions and agreements, and how much our conclusions are required by our assumptions. Brenner’s thesis is that the Song of the Sea (Exod 15:1-18) is a postexilic document, reflecting the work and interests of the Levitica! singers during the reconstruction of Nehemiah.
