Paying careful attention to both the diachronic and synchronic dimensions of the text, at the heart of this study is a close reading of Exodus 32-34 and Numbers 13-14 in their final form with particular focus on the nature and theological function of Moses' prayers. These intercessions evoke important theological questions, especially with regard to divine reputation, covenant loyalty, visitation, and mutability.The author's investigation makes evident not only that Moses' prayers embody an important hermeneutical key to biblical theology, but also that Moses sets an important biblical paradigm for authentic prayer. Moreover, Michael Widmer argues that YHWH's fullest revelation of His name is enacted in a specific and concrete situation in the scout narrative (Nu. 13-14). Thus the latter stands as a kind of commentary on Exodus 34:6-7.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Widmer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3161484231\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783161484230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mohr Siebeck\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 403\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.10w x 0.90d","brand":"Michael Widmer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44079945318655,"sku":"9783161484230","price":93.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_91bd566c-dc23-4617-9cfb-fe6bee1e4282.jpg?v=1685484056","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/moses-god-and-the-dynamics-michael-widmer-9783161484230","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
