This essay explores the heuristic potential of Social Memory approach for the study of the Pentateuch. It focus on eight different “windows” that each sheds light on what an approach informed by memory studies may contribute to current discussions on the Pentateuch as a collection and the types of issues, questions or “angles” within existing questions that such an approach may raise. These windows focus on matters such as the Pentateuch as shared foundational memory of not one but two distinctive ‘groups’, beginnings and endings, main sites of memory, villains, multiplicity of voices, and intertwining of laws and narratives.
