Publisher's Synopsis

This work is a study on the stylistic features of the divine speeches within the Abrahamic narratives. It engages the representations of Yahweh through speech's attribution in Abrahamic narratives. In particular, it shows the high concentration of metaphors/figurative images, similes, alliterations, wordplays, euphemisms, hyperboles, repetitions, allusions, and other distinctive literary features in Yahweh's speeches which are deliberately denied other characters of the Abrahamic narratives.
