The Character of God in the Book of Genesis: A Narrative AppraisalWestminster John Knox Press, 1 thg 1, 2001 - 284 trang By using recent developments in literary theory, W. Lee Humphreys uses Genesis to show how God functions as a character in the Genesis narrative. Very creatively, Humphreys explores the coherence and consistency of God as a character, the way in which God's character changes and develops throughout the narrative, and how giving attention to the character of God enriches our experience of reading Genesis. |
