No Future Without Moses: the Disastrous End of 2 Kings 22–25 and the Chance of the Moab Covenant (Deuteronomy 29–30)
No Future without Moses: The Disastrous End of 2 Kings 22–25 and the Chance of the Moab Covenant (Deuteronomy 29–30) Dominik Markl [email protected] Pontifical Biblical Institute, 00187 Rome, Italy This article explores the question of why the history of Israel and Judah, accord- ing to the books of Kings, ends in disaster (2 Kings 25). Although this question has been intensely discussed, especially since Martin Noth’s Überlieferungsgeschichtliche Studien (1943), no entirely convincing solution has been offered. The argument suggests a new explanation of the ending of Kings from the per-spective of its textual pragmatics. The narrative of the finding of the “book of the torah” during Josiah’s reign (2 Kings 22–23) is seen to refer readers emphatically to Deuteronomy. The laconically disastrous end of 2 Kings 24–25 proves the accuracy of Moses’ predictions of exile. Readers who wish to know about the possibilities for Israel’s future are bound to reread Deuteronomy 29–30, the only text in which Moses refers to the return to the promised land (Deut 30:1–10). They are thereby taken into the dynamics of the Moab covenant (Deuteronomy 29–30). Kings does not console its readers with a happy ending but forces them to turn to Moses’ rhetoric of blessing and curse and to make their decision between life and death (Deut 30:15–20). One of the puzzles of the Hebrew Bible has been the question of why the his-tory of Israel and Judah, according to the books of Kings, ends in disaster (2 Kings 25). -
Book Reviews
BOOK REVIEWS DAS SIEGESLIED AM SCHILFMEER: CHRISTLICHE AUSEINANDERSET ZUNGEN MIT DEM ALTEN TESTAMENT. By Norbert Lohfink, S J. Frankfurt: Knecht, 1965. Pp. 273. DM 16.80. The title derives from a study of Ex 15, one of the collected essays which make up this volume. The subtitle strikes off the nature of the book, a sort of Christian conversation with the OT. Some of the essays have been pre viously published: "Formation of the OT," "Inerrancy," "Song of Moses," "The Greatest Commandment," "Buber's Translation of the Bible." Others are published for the first time: "The Narrative of the Fall," "Freedom," "Law and Grace," "Man and Death." L. has already distinguished himself with scholarly studies of Deuteronomy, and the present volume contains first-class contributions to biblical theology. The reviewer read them all with interest and profit, and never failed to be stimulated by L.'s insights, many of them quite original. The readers of this periodical deserve a de tailed discussion of his essay on inerrancy, which has already provoked considerable reaction (J. Coppens and R. Marié, as opposed to K. Priimm and E. Gutwenger) since its first appearance in Stimmen der Zeit, June, 1964. How is the question of biblical inerrancy to be posed? L. discusses three approaches: the inerrancy of the biblical writer(s), of the individual book, and of the Bible as a whole, and he concludes that the last affords the right basis for discussion. The tendency of Catholic theology has been to empha size the inerrancy of the biblical writer, and this is also the direction of Providentissimus Deus, which presupposed a limited and even definite number of "inspired writers" (Moses, Solomon, etc.), who would have written (complete) "books." Scholarly research has shown that the process of the formation of the OT eliminates such a presupposition; one simply cannot give an approximate number to the "inspired authors" for the "books" which have been formed by addition, glossing, and completing.
