A coherence of concerns is detectable in Exodus 1-2 with allusions to Genesis and the later chapters of Exodus. One chapter is assigned to each of seven narrative unities and deals in various ways with its narrative problems. The resulting eclectic choice of analytical tools includes the study of Proppian structural functions, repetition, public rhetoric, narrative speeds, order and symbolism.JSOT/ASOR monograph series ;no. 5.Journal for the study of the Old Testament.Supplement series ;115.Assyro-Babylonian literatureRelation to the Old TestamentTemples, HittiteTemples, OrientalAssyro-Babylonian literatureRelation to the Old Testament.Temples, Hittite.Temples, Oriental.222.5306299.1Hurowitz Victor1469501MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782266503321I have built you an exalted house3680991UNINA
