• W4309045795 abstract "Reviewed by: The Social Groups behind the Pentateuch ed. by Jaeyoung Jeon Ian D.

This volume of essays contains the following contributions: Jaeyoung Jeon, Introduction: The State of Pentateuchal Research; Konrad Schmid, Textual, Historical, Sociological, and Ideological Cornerstones of the Formation of the Pentateuch; Thomas Römer, The Relationship between Moses and Aaron and the Question of the Composition of the Pentateuch; Jaeyoung Jeon, The Elders Redaction (ER) in the Pentateuch: Scribal Contributions of an Elders Group in the Formation of the Pentateuch; Jürg Hutzli, J's Problem with the East: Observations on the So-Called Yahwistic Texts in Genesis 1–25; Itamar Kislev, Formulae That Equate and the Israelite: Literary Activity in the Priestly Writings; Thomas B. Dozeman and Jaeyoung Jeon, From Sources to Redaction: Identifying the Authors of Numbers 16; Katharina Pyschny, In Between Sources, Fragments, and Redactions: Numbers 16–17 as a Test Case for Reconstructing the Literary History of the Pentateuch; Ndikho Mtshiselwa, The Formation of the Wilderness Narratives in the Book of Numbers; Olivier Artus, Transjordan in the Book of Numbers; Innocent Himbaza, What Is the Contribution of the Samaritans to the Pentateuch?; and, finally, Dany Noquet, Shechem and Bethel in the Patriarchal Narratives: A Samaritan Rereading of Gen 12:1–9* and 35:2–4? The volume also contains indexes of ancient sources, modern authors, and subjects. The volume's essays have their origin in conference papers presented at the University of Lausanne in 2016 at a gathering centered on the question, Who Wrote the Pentateuch? While pentateuchal scholarship has typically concentrated on how the five books might have been composed (Were several, basically intact textual sources stitched together and then redacted to form the books as we essentially know them? Were a variety of literary traditions and fragments redacted and supplemented and ultimately wed to produce these books? Was the process something else entirely?), this conference aimed to move beyond the diachronic presentations of successive literary layers in the Pentateuch and to investigate the social groups, contexts, and scribal circles that contributed to its formation (p. vii). The goal, thus, was to get past the text—behind it, as it were—to know the actual humans responsible for this literary activity long ago, as the volume's title indicates. Of course, our primary (and often only) evidence for these persons and their identities is the text itself, and so moving beyond the layers of text still requires working through those layers, whatever and however they might have been, to discover the groups that would have fashioned them. And so, as readers familiar with the field of pentateuchal studies might expect, these essays devote many pages to technical discussions of the text's possible compositional history, in their attempts to know the human identities responsible for that history. For readers unfamiliar with the state of pentateuchal studies, or for those who need a good refresher, the introductory essay by Jeon, the volume's editor, provides a brief and excellent survey of the somewhat disheveled state of contemporary historical-critical scholarship on the Pentateuch. As Jeon comments, in recent years the field has produced huge volumes of collected essays without reaching any consensus regarding compositional models and the history of the text (p. 3). The number of different scholarly works on these issues and the varying models and sigla that they propose can be dizzying, even for researchers well acquainted with the literature, but Jeon does a fine job sorting through them and [End Page 716] presenting the state of the field in a concise and useful way, citing an extensive and up-to-date bibliography. Schmid's contribution, too, which also serves as an introductory essay, is helpful as a current and straightforward discussion of basic facts on which the field mostly agrees. When, however, at the start of his essay, Schmid addresses the foundational question of both the Lausanne conference and the volume at hand—Who wrote the Pentateuch?—he admits that the answer remains, we do not know (p. 29). We cannot say, therefore, with any precision who wrote the..." @default.
