Rabbi Dr. David E. S. Stein, Bible scholar and editor.
The Torah (Five Books of Moses), as well as the rest of the Bible,
was not composed in chapters and verses. It was divided into
chapters only in the thirteenth century CE. It took another two
centuries before numbered verses were used. How then was it
composed? Is there any logic to the way its stories and laws were
assembled? Do its five books have clearly demarcated divisions?
Can the identification of such divisions lead to deeper
understandings? These are among the questions that formed the
basis of an extensive research project.
Before Chapter and Verse, the fruit of that research, presents a
surprising discovery. To read the Torah as it was written, the text
must be arranged in columns and rows, as tables, or more properly,
weaves. Each of the eighty-six literary units that comprise the Torah
was constructed as a warp and woof, with the stone tablets of the
Decalogue providing the prototype. In turn, these units were woven
together in the structures that form the five books. The weaving
analogy applies to both the micro level of the unit and the macro
level of the books.
Before Chapter and Verse provides you with the tools to read the
Torah as it was woven. It includes an English translation of the
Torah's eighty-six units, presented according to their literary
structures, as well as maps showing the structure of each book.
