Punishment and forgiveness in Israel's migratory campaign

---

A commentary on a book of the Bible will generally include the commentator's outline of the structure of that book. A good outline can greatly enhance one's understanding of a biblical book, so such outlines are important. Rarely, though, do commentators say much about how their outlines are derived.
This book, which is based on Professor Lee's doctoral dissertation, describes and illustrates a method for outlining the structure of a large section of biblical text. This method, called "conceptual analysis", is a modern version of form criticism developed by Lee's advisor, Rolf Knierim.
Lee describes conceptual analysis as an iterative process, where one begins by dividing a text into smaller units with coherent themes. One then takes a deeper look to determine how the units fit together into an overall structure for the text. Finally, the outline is critically evaluated and the steps repeated as needed.
