Timmer, Daniel C.
Creation, Tabernacle, and Sabbath

The Sabbath Frame of Exodus 31:12-17; 35:1-3 in Exegetical and Theological Perspective.

The study redresses the dearth of resources dealing with the sabbath in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament. While focusing on a key passage in Exodus, it also incorporates comparative data from elsewhere in the ancient Near East and explores inner-biblical and other developments of the study's themes. By giving attention to the diachronic elements that come to expression in the sabbath frame and its context, as well as to the typological relations between these passages and those elsewhere in the canon, this study is able to appreciate the development and dynamism as well as the coherence of both the Exodus material and related biblical passages. 236 Seiten, gebunden (Forschungen zur Religion und Literatur des Alten und Neuen Testaments; Band 227/Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht 2009) leichte Lagerspuren, Archivexemplarstempel auf Kopfschnitt/minor shelfwear, archive copy stamp on head cut
