Legal friction law, narrative, and identity politics in biblical Israel / by Hepner, Gershon

Table of Contents: “…Lot's exodus from Sodom echoes the laws of Passover and the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt -- Stranger than (legal) fiction : Sarah's expulsion of Hagar violates Sinai prohibitions and leads to the Israelites' exile in Egypt -- Sex, lies, and invidious dates : Abraham's incestuous relationship with Sarah violates a holiness code prohibition, and mirrors David's incestuous relationship with Abigail -- Covering up : saving reputations or enhancing relations? Abimelech's gift to Sarah alludes to the conjugal right mentioned in the covenant code -- Time out and substitute : Abraham's sacrifice of a ram after the near-sacrifice of Isaac implies that the Judeans cannot lose their holiness -- Ding, dong, dell : the disputes between Abraham, Isaac, and Abimelech reflect the violation of contiguous Sinai laws in Lev. 5:21-24 and 19:1--13 -- Snow White and the eight days of succoth : Laban clear his house as if he had scale disease and Jacob celebrates a festival -- Priestly kingdom : Isaac chooses a son whose destiny is to become the ancestor of a kingdom of priests rather than the ancestor of the Davidic dynasty -- Servant with two masters : Jacob's servitude in Laban's house reflects conflicts between the covenant code and Deuteronomy -- Man on the run : Jacob seeks refuge from Esau in a city of refuge -- Two weddings and an adoption : Jacob's marriage to Rachel reflects the law of the fair captive -- Little Bo Peep : Rachel's premature death is the fulfillment of a priestly law caused by Jacob's oath -- Stealing beauty : Rachel's theft of her father's teraphim and Joseph's use of a divination goblet are implicit polemics against priestly instruments of divination -- Beauty and the beast : the narrative of Dinah's love affair with Shechem is an implicit polemic against intermarriage, circumcision, and the Samaritans -- Only two kids : the expulsion of Joseph, Ishmael, and Esau echoes the priestly law of the scapegoat, while Jacob's expulsion corresponds to the symbolic exile of ostracism -- Not tonight Joseph(ine) : Joseph's ordeal with Potiphar's wife and his emancipation by Pharaoh allude to contiguous laws of the jealous husband and the Nazirite -- Amaziah.com : Jacob's rejection of Reuben's offer to guarantee Benjamin's life with that of his two sons reflects obedience to a deuteronomic law outlawing vicarious punishment -- Kidnapped : Joseph's attempt to detain Simeon and Benjamin reflects the holiness school's revision of the priestly Torah's law of reparation -- Darkness at noon : Joseph's brothers' amazement at noon echoes the blindness and suffering predicted in Deuteronomy 28 -- On the bread line : Egypt's famine echoes the desolation of the land in Leviticus 26 -- The slave trade : Jacob's adoption of Ephraim and Manasseh mirrors God's adoption of Israel --…”
