Synchronic readings of Joshua 3-4 -- Polzin and text critical analysis on Joshua 3-4 -- Reading Joshua 3-4 as part of developing ark narrative -- Reading Joshua 3-4 in the context of Exodus 13:17-14:31 and 2 Kings 2 -- The literary history of Joshua 3-4.
Subject: This book presents a test case for diachronic and synchronic approaches in Joshua 3-4. Lee introduces the synchronic readings of Polzin, Hawk and Winther-Nielsen, as well as their attempts to uncover the problems in applying their methods to this complicated text. He then investigates the differences between the Montana and the LXX of Joshua 3-4 through text critical analysis and reconstructs the Hebrew Vorlage of LXX - Joshua 3-4 considering divergences between major Greek editions; and examines the limitations of Polzin's synchronic study in reading only from the final text of the Montana.
