RT Article T1 Celebration and narration: metaleptic features in Ex 12:1-13,16 JF Narratology, hermeneutics, and Midrash SP 25 OP 37 A1 Müllner, Ilse 1966- LA English YR 2014 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1751349829 AB The biblical text Ex 12 – 13, which I will address in the following section, blurs the boundary between the characters of the narrative, the addressees, and the implied reader, between the narration’s world and the world of the narrative. The metalepsis is not dramatic here the way it often is in modern literature, but rather fluid – a characteristic not only of biblical literature, but also that of ancient Greek literature.
