Description

The group of authors/editors responsible for the books of Deuteronomy through Kings, as well as the book of Jeremiah, are known as the Deuteronomic school. In this book the author addresses issues of the history of this group and its social settings in different historical periods. The emphasis of this reading of the literature concerns the Persian period setting of the Deuteronomic school. The author looks at how knowledge of their history and social setting can influence the interpretation of the literature that they produced.
