The Deuteronomistic Historian patterned more than four dozen of his
narratives after those in Genesis-Numbers. The stories that make up
Genesis-Numbers were indelibly impressed on the Deuteronomistic
Historian's mind, to such an extent that in Deuteronomy-Kings he
tells the stories of the nation through the lens of
Genesis-Numbers. John Harvey discusses the eight criteria which may
be used as evidence that the given stories in Deuteronomy-Kings
were based on those in Genesis-Numbers. Unified accounts in the
Deuteronomistic History, for instance, often share striking
parallels with two or more redactional layers of their
corresponding accounts in Genesis-Numbers, showing that the given
accounts in the Deuteronomistic History were written after the
corresponding accounts in Genesis-Numbers had been written.
Furthermore, the Deuteronomistic Historian calls the reader's
attention to accounts in Genesis-Numbers by explicitly citing and
referring to them, by using personal names, and by drawing thematic
and verbal parallels. Retelling the Torah, the first book to focus
on these parallel narratives, contains far-reaching implications
for Hebrew Bible scholarship.
