Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Amos is generally considered one of the older surviving books of the Hebrew Scriptures, with most scholars dating it to before the Torah was compiled, or at least heavily redacted in the time of King Josiah. Most scholars accept that Amos was written by a prophet called Amos between 760 and 755 BC, who was most likely from the town of Tuqu, in the Kingdom of Judea, in the southern region of the modern Palestinian West Bank. His world was very different from the later Kingdom of Judea that emerged in the 2nd-century BC, as the Israelites of his time were still polytheistic, worshiping the Canaanite Elohim, as well as statues of Iaw (Masoretic Yahweh), the God the Jews and Samaritans would later worship. While the Book of Amos and the rest of the Twelve Prophets, with the possible exception of Jonah, are accepted by many as dating to the 8th-century BC, the oldest fragments of it to survive to the present are Hebrew fragments of the Twelve found among the Dead Sea Scrolls written in the Assyrian script, dating to the Hasmonean era, and fragments of the Septuagint's Twelve, dating to the same era. The Book of Amos is believed to have been translated into Greek around 180 BC with other Twelve Prophets, however, there is a significant difference between the Septuagint's and Masoretic version of the Book of Amos. The Masoretic Version is the Book of Amos which copied by a group of Jewish scribes called the Masorites between 400 and 1000 AD. The major difference between the Books of Amos is the god that Amos was the prophet of. The Masoretic version refers to his god as Iaw (Yahweh), or Iaw Sabaoth, or Lord Iaw, however, the Septuagint's version of Amos appears to have only listed Lord Iaw a couple of times, along with Lord El, and most significantly Lord El Shaddai. An obvious example of the Hasmonean redaction of the Pre-Masoretic Amos is the fact that the Lord Sabaoth is missing from the Septuagint's Amos, yet Tzevo'ovs Yahweh is found in the Masoretic Amos. In most places where the Masoretic Texts have Tzevo'ovs Yahweh or some variant, the Greeks translated Lord Sabaoth. In the Septuagint, Amos' god was repeatedly named as 'Lord God Almighty' in the Septuagint, which translated back into Hebrew would be 'Ba'al El Shaddai.' The term theos ho pantocratôr was the translation used in other books of the Septuagint for El Shaddai. For example, the Book of Job, which was translated into Greek between 190 and 180 BC, the names El Shaddai or Shaddi shows up 33 times in the Masoretic Texts, and is translated as Lord God Almighty in the Septuagint. The differences between the Septuagint and Masoretic Books of Amos is not limited the question of whether Amos' god was Lord El Shaddai or Yahweh Sabaoth, as several other gods were also mentioned in the Greek translation that disappeared during the Hasmonean redaction, including Lord El, Qetesh, and Moloch. The Temple of El in Shiloh, the capital of ancient Samaria is mentioned repeatedly, including a story about Amos being kicked out of the temple and Samaria itself by the high priest Amaziah, for prophesying against the king.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In modern times Amos has come to be considered one of the most important prophets, mainly for his uncompromising message about social justice. This book provides a detailed exploration of this theme and other important elements of the theology underlying the book of Amos. It also includes chapters on the text itself, providing a critical assessment of how the book came to be, the original message of Amos and his circle, which parts of the book may have been added by later scribes, and the finished form of the book. The author also considers the book's reception in ancient and modern times by interpreters as varied as rabbis, the Church Fathers, the Reformers and liberation theologians. Throughout, the focus is on how to read the book of Amos holistically to understand the organic development of the prophet's message through the many stages of the book's development and interpretation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jennifer Dines provides an introductory survey of current scholarship on the Greek Bible - the Septuagint. She outlines its origins in the third to first centuries BCE, going on to trace its subsequent history to the fifth century CE. The Septuagint's relationship with the standard Hebrew text and its translational characteristics are examined, as is its value as a collection with its own literary and exegetical character. The Septuagint is shown to be an important source for biblical studies (both Old and New Testament), to make a distinctive contribution to the history of biblical interpretation, and to be of considerable interest for understanding the early development of both Judaism and Christianity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too often the Septuagint is misunderstood or, worse, ignored in New Testament studies. In this book R. Timothy McLay makes a sustained argument for the influence of the Greek Jewish Scriptures on the New Testament and offers basic principles for bridging the research gap between these two critical texts. McLay explains the use of the Septuagint in the New Testament by looking in depth at actual New Testament citations of the Jewish Scriptures. This work reveals the true extent of the Septuagint s impact on the text and theology of the New Testament. Indeed, given the textual diversity that existed during the first century, the Jewish Scriptures as they were known, read, and interpreted in the Greek language provided the basis for much, if not most, of the interpretive context of the New Testament writers. Complete with English translations, a glossary of terms, an extensive bibliography, and helpful indexes, this book will give readers a new appreciation of the Septuagint as an important tool for interpreting the New Testament.

This book was released on 2012-10-04 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores various aspects of intertextuality in the LXX Twelve Prophets, with a special emphasis on Hosea, Amos and Micah. The first chapter introduces the topic of intertextuality, discusses issues relating to the Twelve Prophets and their translator and concludes with various methodological considerations. Chapter two deals with the lexical sourcing of the prophets in their Hellenistic milieu and tests proposed theories of influence from the Pentateuch.The third chapter deals with standard expressions used by the translator, even in places where the Hebrew does not correspond. The fourth chapter investigates the use of catchwords that the Greek translator identified in his Hebrew Vorlage and that function for him as links between two or more texts. Finally, the fifth chapter examines cases where the translator understands the text to be alluding to specific biblical stories and events.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The past few decades have witnessed a renewed scholarly interest in the Septuagint, especially with regard to its importance for the fields of theology, Jewish studies, classics, philosophy, history of religions, linguistics, and history of literature. To provide students and scholars alike with ready access to the most recent developments, this collection of essays presents a comprehensive and representative picture of septuagintal research today. Specifically, this volume surveys methodological issues, provides thematic and book-centered studies focused on the Old Greek-Septuagint translations, explores the use of these translations in the New Testament, and issues a call for the exploration of the theologies of the Septuagint as a bridge between the theologies of the Hebrew Bible and those of the New Testament. It brings together a variety of perspectives, from emerging voices to seasoned scholars, both English-speaking scholars working on the New English Translation of the Septuagint project and German-speaking scholars working on the Septuaginta Deutsch project" --

Download or read book Amos written by W. Edward Glenny and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-07-15 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this commentary W. Edward Glenny provides a careful analysis of the Greek text and literary features of Amos based on its witness in the fourth century codex Vaticanus. The commentary begins with an introduction to Amos in Vaticanus, and it contains an uncorrected copy of Amos from Vaticanus with textual notes and a literal translation of that text. In keeping with the purpose of Brill’s Septuagint Commentary Series Glenny seeks to interpret the Greek text of Amos as an artifact in its own right in order to determine how early Greek readers who were unfamiliar with the Hebrew would have understood it.
