To correct the imbalance, the focus of this volume is on whether the biblical and cuneiform legal corpora underwent a process of literary revision and interpolation that reflects legal, social, and theological development. 410 0$aJournal for the study of the Old Testament.$pSupplement series ;$v181. 606 $aLaw (Theology)$xBiblical teaching 606 $aJewish law 606 $aLaw, Assyro-Babylonian 606 $aLaw, Sumerian 615 0$aLaw (Theology)$xBiblical teaching. 615 0$aJewish law. 615 0$aLaw, Assyro-Babylonian. 615 0$aLaw, Sumerian. 676 $a221.6 676 $a222 701 $aLevinson$b Bernard M$g(Bernard Malcolm)$0858638 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782385403321 996 $aTheory and method in biblical and cuneiform law$93710060 997 $aUNINA
