Statement of Interests My teaching and research interests center around the Hebrew Bible and the larger ancient Near Eastern world in which it was composed. My current research is focused upon pentateuchal priestly literature, including its ritual, cult, and legislation, and especially these texts' literary revisions of non-priestly texts. I also work on biblical and ancient Near Eastern ritual texts more generally, pentateuchal theory, myth, historiography, prophecy, and the history of Israelite religion.
