- Authors
Fisk, B.N.
- Abstract
The article examines the book "Liber Antiquitatum Biblicarum" (LAB) by Pseudo-Philo and the interpretative role of the biblical citations for the book of Genesis in his rewriting of the biblical episode of the golden calf. The article discusses intertextuality in post-biblical Jewish and early Christian Literature, the role of Moses in the story, as well as the link between sinful acts at Sinai and the Tower of Babel episode in Genesis and how Israel is depicted in LAB.
