A number of long-standing theories concerning the production of
Deuteronomy are currently being revisited. This volume takes a
fresh look at the theory that there was an independent legal
collection comprising chs 12-26 that subsequently was set within
one or two narrative frames to yield the book, with ongoing
redactional changes. Each contributor has been asked to focus on
how the "core" might have functioned as a stand-alone document or,
if exploring a theme or motif, to take note of commonalities and
differences within the "core" and "frames" that might shed light on
the theory under review. Some of the articles also revisit the
theory of a northern origin of the "core" of the book, while others
challenge de Wette's equation of Deuteronomy with the scroll found
during temple repairs under Josiah. With Deuteronomic studies in a
state of flux, this is a timely collection by a group of
international scholars who use a range of methods and who, in
varying degrees, work with or challenge older theories about the
book's origin and growth to approach the central focus from many
angles. Readers will find multivalent evidence they can reflect
over to decide where they stand on the issue of Deuteronomy as a
framed legal "core."
