Three of the articles form a trilogy centred on the sister-wife motif. The first of these, <i> “The Wells of salvation”</i>, examines the theology of water conflict in Genesis 26 (straight after the last sister-wife narrative concerning Isaac). The second on the <i>“Song of Songs”</i>, examines the <i>Sitz im Leben</i>of Canticles and the use of the sister-wife motif in the love poem. The third article,<i>“The sister-wife motif in the patriarchal narratives”</i> analyses the wider implications for <i>"Heilsgeschicte".</i> The fourth and fifth articles are based on Jacob;<i>“Wrestling with God”</i> proposes that Jacob is a paradigm for the nation of Israel and <i>“Beth-el”</i> discusses the purpose of the various forms of repetition in Genesis 27-36. Lastly, we review <i>‘SHOW THEM NO MERCY’</i> a book that presents four different views on God and Canaanite genocide. This is a book in the Zondervan counterpoints series (ed., Stanley N. Gundry, Grand Rapids, Michigan, 2003). Discussions presented by: C.S. Cowles, Eugene H. Merrill, Daniel L. Gard, Tremper Longman III. </P>
