Treating biblical law as dynamic systems of thought facilitating ancient Israel's efforts at self-definition, Morrow describes four different social contexts that gave rise to biblical law: (1) Israel at the holy mountain (the Ten Commandments); (2) Israel in the village assembly (Exodus 20:22-23:19); (3) Israel in the courts of the Lord (priestly and holiness rules in Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers); and (4) Israel in the city (Deuteronomy). Including forthright discussion of such controversial subjects as slavery, revenge, gender inequality, religious intolerance, and contradictions between bodies of biblical law, Morrow's study will help students and other serious readers make sense out of texts in the Pentateuch that are often seen as obscure. -- |cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 630 00 Bible.|pOld Testament|xCriticism, interpretation, etc. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85013769 630 7 Bible.|pOld Testament.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1808092 630 07 Bible.|pOld Testament.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1808092 650 0 Jewish law.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85070287 650 7 Jewish law.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/982801 655 0 Electronic book. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Electronic books.|2lcgft 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMorrow, William S.
