Creation And Destruction A Reappraisal of the Chaoskampf Theory in the Old Testament

"In this revised and expanded edition of his 1989 book, The Earth and the Waters in Genesis 1 and 2: A Linguistic Evaluation, Tsumura carries the discussion forward. In part 1, the general thesis of the original work is restated in a significantly revised and expanded form, as Tsumura responds to reviews and interacts with the literature published in the interim. In part 2, Tsumura expands the scope of his research to include a number of poetic texts outside the Primeval History, texts for which scholars often have posited an ancient Near Eastern mythological substratum."--BOOK JACKET.Tsumura, David Toshio is the author of 'Creation And Destruction A Reappraisal of the Chaoskampf Theory in the Old Testament', published 2005 under ISBN 9781575061061 and ISBN 1575061066.
