Abstract
Description
Professor Sasson explains how the redactor of Genesis 30:14-24 used this passage "to reflect
upon the moral quality of a man who helped shape his
nation's destiny, but also to underscore the manner by
which the nation's destiny was fulfilled and actualized, in
microscopic fashion, by an ancestor's activities."
