Mark A. Awabdy argues that Deuteronomy exhibits a novel and complex vision for the גר (gēr, engl. immigrant). The author substantiates this by investigating Deuteronomy's gēr theology and placement, motive clauses, intertextuality with or independence from other gēr laws, and mechanisms for integrating the gēr into the community of YHWH's people.
