thomas Mann's novella, The Law portrays the events of the Exodus of the Children of Israel from Egypt in a similar fashion as Mann told the story of Joseph in his Joseph novels with gentle rationality and delicate irony. The commentaries by Volker Ladenthin and Thomas Vormbaum take up specific aspects of the story from a literary and judicial perspective.
