Quotes by Stephen G. Dempster (?)

“books. Clines’s (1978) ground-breaking work on the Pentateuch is one such study. Lamenting atomistic exegesis that cannot see the forest for the trees, he shows how the Pentateuch is bound together by a tripartite promise of God to Abraham: land, descendants and relationship. The different books treat the aspects of the one promise variously. Genesis stresses descendants; Exodus and Leviticus the relationship with God; and Numbers and Deuteronomy mainly land (Clines 1978: 45–60). As well as factors already mentioned, the zoom-lens features probably resulted from an overemphasis on philology”
― Stephen G. Dempster, Dominion and Dynasty: A Theology of the Hebrew Bible
