The Great Intermission is a study of the shape of the Bible. It introduces a new perspective

on the structure of the narrative, especially regarding the Old Testament. The governing idea is

that the Canon of the Old Testament, then the Hebrew Scriptures, was completed in and around

the dates of the Dead Sea Scrolls and that the order of placement of large sections of the

narrative is intentional and revealing.

This interpretive device can be called "postmodern" or even "neo-deconstructive" in the sense

that it rejects the conventional point A-to-Point B historical point of view that takes the reader

directly from the moment of creation to the exile in a linear fashion. Instead, the radical breaks in

the narrative, i.e., the Flood, the Exodus, the Exile, and then the destruction of Jerusalem itself

which is a part of historical facticity, are considered essential to any discernment of the spiritual,

philosophical, and pastoral meaning and sense of the completed narrative and teachings.

For this approach to a reading of the Old Testament, the discontinuities in the narrative are the

most important evidence regarding what the text is intended to reveal to us about God and His

People and the profound relationship between the two. The thread that holds this approach

together is the developing Apocalyptic Tradition, a literary and declaratory tradition that begins

in the time of the divided Kingdom and courses through to its climax in the Book of Revelation.

It is in this beginning-and-end vision of life in the Spirit as a community conveys the

profound meaning for the individual and the nation that it does. This means that such events as

crossing rivers, dealing with floods, and crossing or being stymied in a journey by seas are

essential to an understanding of the broader apocalyptic intent of the Holy Scriptures. It also

embraces the lived continuities of family, clan, and tribe and their significance in the creation of

a Holy Nation.
