This is a ground breaking analysis of the "Song of Deborah" through
a comparative study of heroic poetry that elucidates the otherwise
enigmatic role of Yahweh.The so-called "Song of Deborah" celebrates
a decisive victory during the era of the Judges, and praises Jael
and the Israelites for their defeat of a Canaanite coalition led by
Sisera. Despite generations of scholarship, virtually every aspect
of the poem remains disputed because it has been misunderstood in
previous research. This study explains both the enigmatic role of
Yahweh of the poem and its heroic ethos through a comparative study
of heroic poetry.Over the last 30 years this pioneering series has
established an unrivalled reputation for cutting-edge international
scholarship in Biblical Studies and has attracted leading authors
and editors in the field. The series takes many original and
creative approaches to its subjects, including innovative work from
historical and theological perspectives, social-scientific and
literary theory, and more recent developments in cultural studies
and reception history.
