The monograph produces a new interpretation of the opening chapter
of 1 Samuel by combining several hermeneutical models, including
the theory of chaotic (dynamically unstable) systems and the most
recent, essentially post-modern, form criticism, to produce a new
interpretation of the opening chapters of 1 Samuel. It argues that
1 Samuel 1-8 is an integral literary unit whose stance on such
pivotal issues as monarchy and cultic centralization poorly agrees
with that of the balance of Deuteronomy - Kings. In the diachronic
perspective, this unit can be construed as a post-Deuteronomistic
redactional interpolation polemically directed against several
planks of the Deuteronomic/Deuteronomistic agenda. In the
synchronic perspective, the pattern of relationship between 1
Samuel 1-8 and the balance of Genesis - Kings calls for a
non-linear, multi-dimensional reading of the corpus. Both
interpretational trajectories lead to the conclusion that the
thrust of the Former Prophets in its final form is controlled to a
considerable extent by non-Deuteronomistic elements.
