Die "Diaspora" als Thema des Pentateuch? Obwohl es zunächst unwahrscheinlich erscheint, zeigt Kishiya Hidaka, dass zahlreiche Texte des Pentateuch diaspora-bezogene Fragen verhandeln. Geprägt von ihrem nachexilischen Entstehungskontext und im Dialog mit prophetischen Traditionen spiegelt sich in ihnen das Ringen um Israels Identität wider.
