Images of Egypt in Genesis -- Old promise, new king -- Pharoah's midwife crisis -- The waters of chaos -- Criminal charges -- The stranger in Midian -- Exodus 1-2 and the sojourn of Israel.
Subject: "An Ark on the Nile: The Beginning of the Book of Exodus is a close-reading of Exodus 1-2 that analyzes the story as a reasonably self-contained unit, but suggesting that major plot movements in the book of Exodus are foreshadowed and anticipated here. Applying a number of insights from literary theory, Keith Bodner offers an illustration of further integration of biblical studies with cross-disciplinary narrative interpretation."
