    French  A Theocentric Interpretation of ‫הדעת טוב ורע‬


    This multifaceted study proposes a revised interpretation of the
    term ‘the knowledge of good and evil’ (‫ )הדעת טוב ורע‬in Genesis
    2–3. It analyzes the many permutations of ‫ טוב‬and ‫ רעע‬throughout
    the Hebrew Scriptures, with a majority focus in Genesis and the
    Deuteronomistic History and makes a comparison with ancient
    Near Eastern historiographical texts. Considering the hermeneu-
    tical principle of divine retribution and thus contextualizing his
    theocentric analysis of the lexemes, the author contends for an
    interpretation of the divine knowledge for administering reward
    and punishment.
