This study places the Elisha material firmly within the narrative of Genesis-2 Kings, and examines the effect these stories have on the reader's perception of the role of the 'prophet'. Using the narratological theories of Mieke Bal, David Jobling and others, Bergen shows that the Elisha stories present prophetism in a negative light, confining prophets to a rather limited scope of action in the narrative world. 410 4$aThe Library of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament Studies 606 $aProphets 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aProphets. 676 $a222.54092 700 $aBergen$b Wesley J$0922933 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453954603321 996 $aElisha and the end of prophetism$92070933 997 $aUNINA
