Reviews
This is a very insightful volume on the extremely complex matter of the various traditions of Moses. All essays are of a high standard. They contribute to the recovery of the vitality of Hellenistic literatures across the ancient eastern Mediterranean world and to the realization that the nonbiblical traditions are more than muddled versions of the canonical text. - Phillippe Guillaume in: Journal of Hebrew Scriptures, Vol. 10 (2010).
