    While analogies between Moses and other figures in the Prophets, Writings, and New Testament have received a great deal of attention, no study has systematically explored narrative analogies with Moses in the Book of Genesis. This paper posits the presence of narrative analogies between the major figures in Genesis (God, Noah, Abram, Jacob, and Joseph) and Moses. Gaps in the analogous narratives in Genesis, moreover, suggest that a knowledge of the narratives about Moses in Exodus-Deuteronomy is required for the interpretation of Genesis.
