Slightly more than half of the Old Testament is made up of narrative texts, most of which have a clearly stated historiographical intention. This shows the place occupied by historical memory in the thought and religion of ancient Israel. This book presents a state of research on biblical historiography and offers avenues for analyzing the narrative texts of the Bible, oriented, some towards the text and its history, others towards the context of the reader. The major challenge is to combine a rigorous approach with an educational presentation, the challenge being to make the text sufficiently accessible to students and uninitiated readers while remaining attractive and relevant for specialists. This book therefore represents an excellent introduction to the subject for the general public and a precious clarification for teachers of biblical theology on the relationship of biblical texts with history. But it also opens the debate on questions of reading and interpreting these texts in the African context today. Jean Koulagna, theologian and biblical scholar, has been teaching the Old Testament, biblical languages and philology for more than two decades. Alongside his administrative responsibilities in theological education, he actively participates in university biblical research in several international projects as well as in the translation and revision of the Bible in the Dii language, in northern Cameroon. He is the author of a dozen books and several articles, the most recent being The Torah Under the Tree: Orality in the Oldest Sources of the Book of Genesis (Langham Publishers, 2021).
