Summary
Kristin Weingart investigates the use of the name »Israel« within the Old Testament as well as the underlying concepts of Israel. She shows that the social construction of a common descent forms the base of Israelite collective identity in the pre- as well as post-exilic periods and stands behind the various usages of the name »Israel.«
