Summary
Bob Becking describes in fragments the process that leads to the earliest expression of Jewish belief as it grew out of the pre-exilic Yahwism. He discusses texts from the biblical books of Ezra and Nehemiah. These texts are read in their historical context and with the question in mind: In what way did they contribute to the process of transition.
