Besides the elements of poetry and legend embodied in these traditions, Professor Davidson shows that there can be a historical basis for the narratives and offers guidelines for exploring it. The Genesis stories cannot simply be seen as a reading back into earlier times of the background to the social customs and religious outlook of their later editors. Introductory sections deal with the sources, historicity and general character¬istics of the narratives, and are followed by a section-by-section presentation of the text with commentary in the established style of the series.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eAbraham and Isaac\u003cbr\u003e Jacob and Esau\u003cbr\u003e Joseph in Egypt.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Religion: general [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Religion: general\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Religion:%20general%20%5BHRA%5D%22\"\u003eHRA\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46003980108056,"sku":"9780521295208","price":33.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780521295208i_04d4d5ca-a55a-46cc-b50c-452d2f660916.jpg?v=1691374743","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/genesis-12-50-paperback-9780521295208","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
