This collection of inter-related essays argues that the way in
which Chronicles incorporates and develops material from
Samuel-Kings offers an analogy for the way in which the final
edition of Exodus was produced. Embedded within the text of
Exodus there is an earlier Deuteronomistic version recoverable
from the reminiscences of the exodus in Deuteronomy. This, it is
suggested, is the most objective method available for recreating
the literary history of Exodus and must constitute the first
stage in any analysis of Exodus. Already, it produces some
surprisingly radical results.
