In den hier versammelten Aufsätzen befasst sich Joel Baden mit der Literatur- und Kompositionsgeschichte des Pentateuch. Durch detaillierte Analysen einzelner Passagen, aber auch umfassende theoretische und methodische Überlegungen bietet er Einblicke in die Mechanismen, die zur Entstehung des Pentateuch beitrugen, wie in wissenschaftliche Rahmenkonzepte, innerhalb derer der Pentateuch in den Blick kommt. Dieser Band, der Arbeiten aus den ersten fünfzehn Jahren seiner Karriere umfasst, dokumentiert zugleich die Trends in der jüngsten Pentateuchforschung, insbesondere das Erstarken der Neuen Dokumentenhypothese.
