Kurzfassung:
The role and historicity of Moses in the Bible have been the subject of much study and speculation. This book focuses not only on the construction of this biblical figure, but also on its evolution through the ancient and medieval Middle East. From the Jewish world to Islam by way of Christianity and the philosophical and Gnostic movements of Late Antiquity, from the first centuries of the Christian era to the late Middle Ages, and from the Mediterranean to Iran and Ethiopia, the authors have appropriated the fi gure of Moses whose polysemy allowed for multiple readings in various and diverse historical and cultural contexts. The studies assembled here attest to the richness of this veritable "mosaic".
