| Sumario: | Within the Decalogue in Deut 5 the commandments about the Sabbath and respect for parents include the qualification ›as YHWH your God commanded you‹ (5.12.16). This is not a grammatical inconsistency, but it does constitute a problem for interpretation. For in the Pentateuchal narrative before the Sinai theophany there is neither a divine commandment about the Sabbath nor one about respect for parents. The usual solution is to regard these cross-references as compositionally later additions. Does a synchronic treatment of the extant text allow some further clarification, prior to such conjectures? The literary phenomenon of different ›voices‹ or ›levels of communication‹, which is known elsewhere in Deut, could be of some help here. Whether it is Moses or the book's narrator who speaks, in any case the words in question are not spoken from the perspective of God at the first proclamation of the Decalogue. They could, despite their past form, refer to commandments of YHWH which were given only after the revelation of the Decalogue. That allows us to look for divine utterances about the Sabbath and respect for parents anywhere in the Pentateuch, and especially in Deut itself. The article attempts to explain the intention of the two clauses within the literary construction of the book of Deuteronomy. In the process it becomes apparent how even in the composition of the individual laws there is an elaboration of the Decalogue given at Horeb. |
