Inconsistency in the Torah
Ancient Literary Convention and the Limits of Source Criticism
Book • 2017
In 'Inconsistency in the Torah', Joshua A. Berman challenges the conventional approach to biblical inconsistencies by arguing that these are not signs of multiple authorship but rather reflect ancient literary and legal conventions.
He draws parallels with other ancient Near Eastern texts to demonstrate that such inconsistencies are intentional and serve rhetorical purposes.
The book is structured into three parts, addressing narrative, legal inconsistencies, and the intellectual history of source criticism.
