Deuteronomy

"Professor Rofe brings together different methods of biblical study - traditional Jewish interpretation, classical biblical criticism, form criticism, history of tradition and textual criticism - to argue that the roots of Deuteronomy lie in monarchial Israel and Judah, that the literary climax belongs to the seventh century B.C.E., and that the final stages of the text are exilic and early post-exilic."--BOOK JACKET.
