by Martin Noth (Author)

This collection appeared in the same year as von Rad's The Problem of the Hexateuch and has similarly been unavailable for many years. It contains the most important of Noth's articles including, in addition to the study named in the title, 'Jerusalem and the Israelite Tradition', 'God, King and Nation in the Old Testament', 'History and Word of God in the Old Testament', and 'The Understanding of History in Old Testament Apocalyptic'.
