Summary:

This book is a textual-exegetical analysis of the Hebrew and Greek versions of 2 Samuel 6 and 1 Chronicles 13, 15-16 which argues that in the period of the Second Temple the text and story we now have in MT Samuel developed beyond those of synoptic Chronicles, and this development took place related to the concerns of apology of Davidic kingship, apology of Davidic and Yahwistic character, and cultic practice.>
