Allusive soundplay in the Hebrew Bible

This is the first study to focus exclusively on the use in the Hebrew Bible of soundplay to allude to and interpret earlier literary traditions also found in the Bible. It considers the way the biblical writers used allusive soundplay to construct theological discourse, that is, in service of their efforts to describe the nature of God and God's relationship to humanity. By showing that a variety of biblical books contain examples of allusive soundplay employed for this purpose, Kline demonstrates that this literary device played an important role in the growth of the biblical text as a whole and in the development of ancient Israelite and early Jewish theological traditions.
