| Summary: | This study of the time element in the story of Joseph goes through three stages. (1) Observation of the general temporal structure, the dyschronies (38; 46,8-27) and the detailed structure surrounding the central act (41,53-57 and 47,13-26) goes on to clarify the link between time as given by the narrator and time in the story itself. (2) Attention is then given to the prolepses and other forms of anticipation, among which are Joseph’s dreams, about which we enquire to what extent, if any, they lead up to what comes later, and the oracle given at Beer-sheba that announces the final act. (3) Lastly, among the flashbacks, some analepses are studied — the late mention of the interpreter in 42,24, Joseph’s distress, related in 42,21-22, and Jacob’s final words for the brethren in 50,16-17 — but also the retrospective glances cast by some of the characters on past history, especially Judah’s words to Joseph in 44,18-34. These flashbacks bring out the formation of the brotherhood which the story recounts. The story of Joseph thus appears as a story showing how the healing and humanization of human relations are achieved by telling the story of a life. |
