This study argues that the authors of Deuteronomy - a corpus of laws purportedly given to Israel through Moses - radically transformed ancient Israelite religion and society. Their new vision, says author Bernard Levinson, was completely without precedent and included matters of worship, justice, political administration, family life, and theology. Where their agenda and the conventions of Jewish law conflicted, Levinson shows, the authors of Deuteronomy appropriated the problematic laws in question and reworked them in order to erase the conflict and to further their own program.

John Barton, Journal of Religion In my judgment it provides a better model than any previously developed for understanding the motivation and interpretative techniques that lie behind Deuteronomy.

The Journal of Theological Studies Through his detailed examination of texts, Levinson documents a revolution in ancient Israel's religious life and social history.
