What is Deuteronomy 4 and the Second Commandment (Studies in Biblical Literature, V. 60) about?
viii, 130 pages ; 24 cm "The Second Commandment's ban on cultic images is reflected throughout the Old Testament, but its most significant exponent is found in Deuteronomy 4. This single chapter features the most comprehensive Old Testament accumulation of allusions to the Second Commandment and offers a unique attempt to give the commandment a theological rationale. This book analyzes this accumulation of allusions, arguing that they represent a successive interpretation of the final version of the commandment, relating it to the exilic or early postexilic context of the author of Deuteronomy 4."--BOOK JACKET Includes bibliographical references and indexes You saw no form : analysis of vv. 9-14 -- An image, the form of any figure : analysis of vv. 15-16a -- The likeness of male or female : analysis of vv. 16b-18 -- Bow down to them and worship them : analysis of vv. 19-20 -- A jealous God : analysis of vv. 21-24 -- Children and grandchildren : analysis of vv. 25-31 -- Frame : analysis of vv. 1-8 and 32-40
