Schipper. 330 $aWithin the context of the Torah, the Joseph story can be read as a transition that explains why Jacob and his family came to Egypt. However, if one looks at other texts of the Hebrew Bible, there is no mention of the Joseph story; instead, the arrival of the Israelites is said to be the result of the decision of a "father" or of "fathers" to go down do Egypt. Indeed, there are very few references to Joseph at all in the whole Hebrew Bible. Apparently, the Joseph story is not necessary for explaining why the Israelites found themselves in Egypt. The question therefore arises: Why was this story written, when, and for what audience? This volume offers an overview of the current discussion on the origins, composition, and historical contexts behind the Joseph narrative. There is a tendency to date the story (or its original version) to the Persian period, but this volume includes divergent voices about this issue. The volume also shows that scholarly discussion about the historical location of the Joseph story requires to bring together Egyptologists and biblical scholars. 606 $aReligion / Biblical Studies / Old Testament$2bisacsh 606 $aReligion / Biblical Studies$2bisacsh 606 $aReligion 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$2fast 610 00$aPentateuch$aHebrew Bible$aEgyptology$aAltes Testament$aAntike 615 7$aReligion / Biblical Studies / Old Testament 615 7$aReligion / Biblical Studies 615 0$aReligion 676 $a222.11092 702 $aBu?hler$b Axel 702 $aRo?mer$b Thomas 702 $aSchmid$b Konrad 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910513668503321 996 $aThe Joseph Story between Egypt and Israel$92783085 997 $aUNINA
