Brueggemann/Linafelt "The Introduction Prophets" Mckenzie's "Not Exactly It Happened" The Deuteronomistic History Compared Other Histories Its Time." In Mckenzie, read pp. 23-36, including "Etiology Genesis: Other Examples;" pp.1. What's prophetic about "The Former Prophets"?
The prophetic aspect is the capability of re-interpreting the entire lived truth, including Israel's history as well as the known, Biblical-era Near East's power relations, based on the just as tangible reality (within this particular reading), of Yahweh's rule. The Former Prophets' established framing is achieved via a sound interpretative process, which typically rearranges literature in a canonical form, out of something that it earlier wasn't.
2. What does it mean that Joshua, Judges, Samuel and Kings are a single literary piece written from a single interpretive angle?
It was a bold suggestion by Noth, challenging scholars who viewed Joshua, Samuel, Kings, and Judges as a compilation of numerous sources, that the comprehensive "historical" chronicle must be comprehended canonically as one single work of literature penned from one single interpretative perspective as a treatise on Jerusalem's destruction in 587 BC and a deliberation on the resultant predicament of going into exile. Furthermore, Noth insisted that this literary corpus's theological views and beliefs...
Hence, the body of literature has been called "Deuteronomic or Deuteronomistic History," with the assumed writer being considered its "Deuteronomist."
3. How has current discussion moved beyond Noth's original hypothesis?
The institution of Deuteronomy which first brought covenant to the Israelite interpretative tradition is responsible for contributing 'Deuteronomy' to Hebrew scripture (Torah). The broad belief is that the "historical chronicle" of Judges, Joshua, Kings and Samuel has been informed by Tendenz (Deuteronomy's interpretive) and Deuteronomy itself. Contrary to Priestly tradition, Deuteronomy revolves around ensuring proper ordering of Israelite politico-economic life, whilst also being fairly interested in the subject of cultic holiness. The above two traditions offer highly diverse interpretative accents and definitely surface among various traditionist circles. It is a highly noteworthy and significant fact that the final form of the Hebrew scripture has placed those traditions alongside one another, thus ensuring ancient Israel's original canon is pluralistic and highlighting traditions in strong dispute with one another.
4. How is truth told and what truth is told in the Deuteronomist History?
Deuteronomy's writer, as far as he was concerned, was just being faithful to whatever tradition he received. He received, as one…

What the Jews call the Torah, the Muslims call Tawrat: the first five books of the Old Testament. The Old Testament book of Psalms is also held dear to Muslims and is called Zabur, and the New Testament writing of Jesus are called Injil (Robinson).

The people of the kingdom, seeing nothing wrong with this, built their own altars throughout the land. Baal and Ashteroth were worshiped openly, sanctified by King Ahab and his wife, Jezebel. Sacred prostitutes were part of this new idolatry. It was one of these that Hosea took as a wife, and then utilized this imagery of God's love for Israel, in that he would rescue them by buying them
