A theological evaluation of the Sinai-tradition (Ex. 19 - Num. 10:10)
Among the many and varied angles by means of which the Old Testament are studied, a theological evaluation of it remains valid as there is also need for a global and theological understanding of the Old Testament. This contribution focuses on the theological content of the Sinai-tradition found in Exodus 19 - Numbers 10:10. Furthermore the importance of the Sinai-tradition is pointed out and the literary setting outlined. In this article it is argued that the theological content may be summarized by three concepts: theophany, covenant and Torah.
