Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This short story has called forth the highest praise from the most competent critics for its simple beautiful presentation of scenes from the rural life of ancient Israel. It is artistic in the noblest sense, though it is not likely that in those days there was much consciousness of art of discussion as to the technique of story-telling.-from "Ruth: A Woman's Faithfulness and Its Reward"With an emphasis on the Bible as literature, this classic 1922 work examines the stories of the Old Testament with a modern eye, exploring not only their religious and historical significance but their beauty and effectiveness as prose and as examples of the art of storytelling. Among the tales considered are: .The Creation of the World.The First Murder.The Tower of Babel.The Story of Jacob.Samson: or A Strong Man's Failure.Saul and the Witch of Endor.The Story of Job: The Problem of Suffering.The Story of Jonah: A Prophetic Satire.and more.Canadian scholar W.

This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Hebrew Stories and Their Modern Interpretation The purpose of this book is to examine some of the varied and interesting narratives of the Old Testament in the light of modern study, with a view to discovering their original significance and showing their relations to other parts of this great literature. It is quite natural in the atmosphere of our time that the most prominent and attractive feature should be the utterances of the great prophets, the oracles of the men who did so much to lift religion to a higher moral plane and make it a spiritual rather than a magical power. It is said that prophecy is the heart of the Old Testament, and that statement is true enough, if we remember that the heart, though a central and vital organ, is related to all other parts of the body; it receives the life-blood and sends it forth again in purer, stronger forms. We will find prophetic ideas in earlier stories just as we can trace the influence of prophecy in later history and law. We are concerned with a movement which, when it once began, was continuous and all its parts were woven into a living whole.

Book Synopsis Jewish Interpretation of the Bible by : Karin Hedner Zetterholm
Download or read book Jewish Interpretation of the Bible written by Karin Hedner Zetterholm and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Jewish tradition gives tremendous importance to the Hebrew Bible, from the beginning Jewish interpretation of those scriptures has been practiced with remarkable freedom. Karin Hedner Zetterholm offers a clear and concise introduction to the legal, theological, and historical presuppositions that shaped the dominant stream of rabbinic interpretation, including Mishnah, Talmud, and Midrashim, discussing specific examples of different interpretive methods. She then explores the contours of Jewish biblical interpretation evident in the New Testament and the legacy of ancient traditions in the way different Jewish movements read the Bible today. Students of the history of biblical interpretation and of Judaism will find this an important and engaging resource.
