Abstract

The author's interest in the book· of Ezekiel and its problems was kindled in a previous study involving an exegetical analysis of six passages selected from the first thirty-nine chapters of the book. These problems may be classified under the headings of (1) authorship and authenticity, and ( 2) interpretation. The study now proposed involves the investigation of these literary and theological problems in order to determine (1) to what extent the passage under consideration may be attributed to the prophet and how much must be ascribed to one or more editors, (2) the relation between this section of the book bearing the name of Ezekiel and the balance· of the book, (3) the relation of this section to the P, H and D codes of the Pentateuch, and (4) the relevance of the passage for modern faith, life and theology.
