Abstract
MEYER, Esias E.. When synchrony overtakes diachrony: Perspectives on the relationship between the Deuteronomic Code and the Holiness Code. Old testam. essays [online]. 2017, vol.30, n.3, pp.749-769. ISSN 2312-3621. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2312-3621/2017/v30n3a12.
The review article offers a critique on the recent book by Benjamin Kilchör. I approach his work from the perspective of Leviticus and recent debates on this biblical book. I start by examining Kilchör's introduction and the methodology he selected, and then focus on Lev 19 and 25 and their diachronic relation to texts from Exodus and Deuteronomy. The article finds many of the arguments offered by Kilchör to be wanting.
Keywords : Deuteronomy; Holiness Code; Jubilee; Leviticus.
