Résumé : | The Exodus, the central event in the historiography of the Bible and in the collective memory of the biblical period, represents a historical water-shed; it shapes the recounting of events both before and after it. In this book, the influence of the Exodus tradition on the ideological-literary shaping of the biblical historiography is investigated, with particular attention paid to such questions such as: Why were the Israelites enslaved in Egypt? Why did the Exodus tradition take on such enormous dimensions in the Bible? How is this phenomenon related to the separatism promoted as ideal in the Hebrew Scriptures? |
