Jacobs Tears: The Priestly Work of Reconciliation

Jacobs Tears: The Priestly Work of Reconciliation Asking why the Book of Numbers lists the twelve tribes of Israel seven times, this anthropological reading of the Bible argues that the editors, far from being a separate elite unconcerned with their congregations troubles, cherished a political agenda, a religious protest against the government of Judahs exclusionary policies.
