Biblical Text and Texture

A Literary Reading of Selected Texts. A literary exploration of the Hebrew Bible focussing on three distinct literary elements: narrative text, direct speech, and themes and motifs. The bible remains one of the major literary achievements of human history, comprising over 60 documents, with as many contributors, and composed over many centuries. In this book, Michael Fishbane approaches the Hebrew Bible from a literary point of view. He demonstrates how, just as orators use particular techniques such as repetition and pause to convey their message in the way they require, the Hebrew Bible authors used a range of literary devices to communicate a religious message applicable to particular historical moments, each with their own political, moral and theological contexts.
