About
'The Fantastic in Religious Narrative from Exodus to Elisha' examines the astonishing array of marvels, monsters, and magic depicted in the Hebrew Bible. These stories - with the Exodus narrative at their centre - offer ambiguity and uncertainty, encouraging reflection and doubt as much as belief and meaningfulness. Aiming to discover - rather than explain away - the power of these stories, the book argues for the need to incorporate destabilization, disorientation, and ambiguity more strongly into theories of what religious narrative is and does.
