    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Sie stellt außerdem dar, dass die analogen Verbindungen zwischen David und Jakob, Juda und Joseph im Laufe der Zeit gefestigt wurden. Joanna G.

    Long description:

    Joanna G. Kline untersucht Parallelen zwischen der biblischen Geschichte von David und den Erzählungen über Jakob, Juda und Joseph. Sie zeigt, wie die erzählerische Analogie die Charakterisierung entwickelt und wichtige Themen in diesen Texten untermauert. Sie stellt außerdem dar, dass die analogen Verbindungen zwischen David und Jakob, Juda und Joseph im Laufe der Zeit gefestigt wurden. Joanna G. Kline explores the use of narrative analogy in the biblical story of King David (1 Samuel 16-1 Kings 2) and the narratives about Jacob, Judah, and Joseph (Genesis 25-50). In her analysis, the author demonstrates that parallels in plot, structure, language, and motif function to develop characterization and to reinforce significant themes in these texts, including sibling rivalry and reconciliation, measure-for-measure punishment, and divine providence. By examining the genetic relationship between Samuel and Genesis, she provides evidence of mutual influence and shows that the analogical links between David and Jacob, Judah, and Joseph were strengthened as these texts were composed and transmitted over time.
