Deuteronomy: An Introduction and Study Guide

Anselm C. Hagedorn guides students through the Book of Deuteronomy, examining its structure and characteristics. The guide covers the latest biblical scholarship, including historical and interpretive issues; and considers a range of scholarly approaches. In particular, Hagedorn considers Deuteronomy within its literary contexts, the role and rule of law envisaged by the authors of Deuteronomy, and the immediate reception-history of Deuteronomy in the texts from Qumran.

With suggestions of further reading at the end of each chapter, this guide will be an essential accompaniment to study of the Book of Deuteronomy.
