The ancestral narratives of Genesis have a decidedly political
character. The narrative presentations of ancestors and their kin
reflect the relationships of the later people of Israel with their
neighboring peoples. In light of the findings of recent Pentateuch
research, this volume addresses important aspects of the political
meaning of these narratives. The collection of nineteen
contributions from internationally renowned experts explores, for
example, the political intention of various narrative units or
literary layers. The political significance of the ancestresses is
also discussed, and the political receptions of ancestral
narratives in early Jewish literature and in Islam traced.
