NOTE.

It will be seen from page 17 (Comp. Bible), Gen. 11:20—25:1 that "THE GENERATIONS OF TERAH" are arranged in a Repeated Alternation, and that the Alternation there given is only so far as ABRAHAM is concerned. The Histories are divided up, and alternated with a brief summary of certain Posterities. But the same principle of structure runs through not only the history of Terah, but also that of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The sevenfold alternations may be presented as follows:—

11:27—22:19. History of Abraham. I. 22:20—24. Posterity of Nahor. 23:24. History of Abraham. II. 25:1-4. Posterity of Keturah. — Abraham. 25:5—11. History of Abraham. III. 25:12—18. Posterity of Ishmael. 25:19—35:22. History of Isaac.(Life). I. 35:22—26. Posterity of Jacob (Land). — Isaac. 35:27—29. History of Isaac (Death). II. 36. Posterity of Esau. 37:1—46:7. History of Jacob. I. 46:8—27. Posterity of Jacob (Land). — Jacob. 46:28—50:26. History of Jacob. II. Ex. 1:1—6. Posterity of Jacob (Egypt).
