Description
Summary:This monograph is a lightly modified version of the author's 2010 Cambridge doctoral dissertation, completed under the supervision of Robert P. Gordon, and examined by Robert Hayward and Andrew Macintosh. Under such guidance it comes as no surprise to discover that it is a worthy piece of scholarship, carefully executed and attentive to detail., The book examines the story of Cain and Abel found in Genesis 4:1–16. Each chapter deals with one or two verses, beginning with a discussion of the Hebrew text and any problems it may present. Each chapter then examines in turn the Septuagint, the Minor Greek Versions, the Vulgate, the Peshitta, and finally the Targums.
