AB - This study seeks to develop a new proposal for the compositional history of Habakkuk based on demonstrable patterns of editing from the ancient versions of the Hebrew Bible. Towards this end, it begins with a review of current empirical approaches to editorial practice and compares them with conventional redactional theories. It then reviews the data drawn from Jeremiah 1–25 that was used to build the model applied to Habakkuk. The main body of the analysis then reviews some select cases where certain passages in Habakkuk are proposed to be the result of editorial exegesis. The results as a whole are then compared to current theories of the composition of Habakkuk by working through the successive sections of the book. Crucially, while the results returned from this empirical mode of analysis are difficult to compare directly with previous redactional models, the general patterns derived from the dataset demonstrate not only that an entirely new approach is possible, but that the evidential basis for previous redactional approaches can be called into question.
