Shipped professionally in a box. 'A fascinating and highly original new look at the Joseph-narrative which relies a good deal on syntactic and semantic analyses. Pirson shows that there are many elements in this story that provoke a significantly different reading of the story of Joseph and his brothers, especially when these are combined with some textual aspects previously unnoticed or neglected. Special attention is given to the meaning of Joseph's dreams, to the question of who actually sold Joseph, and to the brothers' role in the narrative.

In the first part of the work, Pirson critiques traditional Hebrew grammar by employing modern text-syntactic theories influenced by Harald Weinrich, examining how syntactic relationships across clauses shape textual meaning. Genesis 37 is used to demonstrate a hybrid model that combines both traditional and modern approaches, emphasizing how syntactic coherence enriches understanding of the narrative. The second part centers on the Joseph narrative (Genesis 37-50) and its interpretive challenges.
