Abstract:
This article examines reworkings in and of the Pentateuch using the terms and categories of hypertextuality, a theory proposed by the structuralist literary critic Gérard Genette. Genette’s theory offers sophisticated ways to categorize literary interactions among texts and to make more explicit our assumptions about how interpretive texts functioned. It can therefore contribute to solving pressing issues in the study of the Hebrew Bible and Ancient Judaism, including the ongoing need to continue integrating these two fields.
