Les leçons et les énigmes du passé

The series Beihefte zur Zeitschrift für die alttestamentliche Wissenschaft (BZAW) covers all areas of research into the Old Testament, focusing on the Hebrew Bible, its early and later forms in Ancient Judaism, as well as its branching into many neighboring cultures of the Ancient Near East and the Greco-Roman world.

A significant part of Biblical literature is the result of a process involving the reception and revision of earlier texts and traditions contained in the Bible itself, among them the historical psalms. An analysis of the intertextuality present in these psalms sheds light not only on their meaning and compositional purpose, but also on the redaction and composition of the Pentateuch.

Résumé
"[...] it is difficult to recommend another monograph on these fascinating texts-past or present-more thoroughly researched, creatively conceived, clearly structured, holistically balanced, or elegantly presented."
