Call For Papers: “Deuteronomistic Histories in and beyond the Former Prophets” At the 2017 meeting in Berlin, the EABS research group “Law and Narrative” will host a session of invited papers on “Deuteronomistic Histories in and beyond the Former Prophets”. Our intention is to explore the strikingly inconsistent application of Deuteronomy’s laws in Josh – 2 Kgs in contrast to later compositions like Chronicles or the Temple Scroll, which place much more emphasis on the legal material from Deut (and beyond). By comparing the different compositions, we hope to gain new insights into the compositional history of ‘biblical’ and early Jewish literature and the development of deuteronomistic historical thinking.
