In Re-Imagining Abraham: A Re-Assessment of the Influence of
Deuteronomism in Genesis Megan Warner revisits the tradition that
Genesis was edited by editors sympathetic to the theology of the
Deuteronomist. On the basis of close, contextual readings of the
four passages most commonly attributed to (semi-)Deuteronomistic
hands, Warner argues that editorial use of Deuteronomistic language
and themes points not to a sympathy with Deuteronomistic theology
but rather to a sustained project to review and even subvert that
theology. Warner's 're-imagining' of Abraham demonstrates how
Israel's forebear was 're-imagined' in the post-exilic context for
the purpose of offering the returning exiles a way forward at a
time when all the old certainties, and even continued relationship
with Yahweh, seemed lost.
