The Book of the Torah: The Narrative Integrity of the Pentateuch by T. W. Mann

Reviewed by Vernon J. Steiner on 02/21/2012

Partially successful attempt by former Princeton professor and now UCC pastor to read the Pentateuch as an integrated story. Treats the Pentateuch as both a composite document (standard critical view) and a unified narrative, but focuses on the latter in order to delineate both the internal literary cohesiveness of larger units and the narrative integrity of the whole. Proceeds “book” by “book” through the Pentateuch, applying insights from literary/narrative analysis to the respective texts.
