The Last Testaments of Jacob and Moses
註釋In the light of current critical positions regarding Genesis 49 and Deuteronomy 33, the purpose of this thesis is to defend the antiquity and unity of both chapters. The defense of the authorship of Jacob and Moses serves to buttress both the antiquity and the unity of these last testaments. Recent findings in the field of Ugaritic studies have shed new light upon the proper exegesis of the individual verses. After a careful exegesis is given of both chapters, information based upon that exegesis will be pulled together to show that both chapters are of great age and to show that each chapter has been written by a single author. The individual oracles did not circulate independently of one another before being gathered together by some collector. They arose simultaneously from the mouth of one author.
