He argues that the memory of YHWH from the southern desert region and the migration of the Transjordanian settlers to the west were intertwined with the recollection of Egyptian oppression, giving rise to an early tradition of exodus-wilderness in the Northern Kingdom. While the tradition continued to develop in Judah after Israel's fall, the author suggests that during the Persian period, the narrative story underwent a creative reinterpretation, reformulation, and composition within the socio-historical contexts of the return from exile and restoration. Jeon proposes that a diverse array of scribal circles, representing various social, political, and religious perspectives in Yehud and the diaspora, contributed to the literary formation of the wilderness narrative, resulting in a collection of scribal debates. This intricate tapestry of memories and perspectives provides a rich and nuanced understanding of the development of the wilderness story within the biblical texts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 794g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 167 x 247 x 33 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783161612169\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jaeyoung Jeon","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44158273421562,"sku":"9783161612169","price":166.02,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_ef0e11a3-580d-449d-a908-728911882e95.jpg?v=1680896289","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/from-the-reed-sea-to-kadesh-a-redactional-and-sociohistorical-study-of-the-pentateuchal-wilderness-narrative-9783161612169","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
