The Textual and Redactional History of Genesis 46:8–27 -- Genesis 46:8–27 lists the names of those who went down along with Jacob to Egypt during the famine in Canaan. However, this passage has some features that inspire to further study. These include seemingly pointless repetitions, tensions within the text and contradictions with other verses in the book of Genesis, which lead us to conclude that the text of the pericope in question has undergone significant changes over time. In this study, we will attempt to deduce possible textual layers and reconstruct the sources used, starting from the canonical text and working backwards in time.

Pár héttel ezelőtt belém hasított a felismerés a csendesnapokkal kapcsolatban: Istenem, mit tudnék mondani? Hogy lehet teológusoknak Istenről beszélni? Szívsebészeknek laikusként a koszorúérről? Ilyenkor legjobb, amit tehet az em­ ber, hogy hallgat. Egyáltalán Wurmbrand után, Visky Ferenc után, Krisztusért annyit szenvedett, börtönviselt keresztyének után, hogy lehet hitelesen megszólalni? Vagy hogy lehet megszólalni hitelesen akkor, amikor légvonalban pár ezer kilométerre innen ke­ reszten vagy más borzalmak közt Krisztu­ sért halnak meg emberek? Mit mondhatnék?
