Book Synopsis Josiah's Passover by : Shigeyuki Nakanose
Download or read book Josiah's Passover written by Shigeyuki Nakanose and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-03-10 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the celebrated story of Josiah's Passover in 2 Kings, Shigeyuki Nakanose provides a dramatic demonstration of the contribution of sociological hermeneutics to contemporary Biblical exegesis. This method complements historical-critical exegesis by reconstructing the social systems of Biblical communities in their religious as well as their economic and political orders. After introducing the sociological method and a brief consideration of historical and literary-critical readings of Josiah's Passover, Nakanose explicates the method of sociological analysis and its facets - economic, social, political, and ideological. Turning to the text itself, he shows clearly how the process of liturgical purification it describes is intimately tied to the centralization of political and commercial interests in ancient Israel. He then goes on to demonstrate, using the experience of Brazilian base communities, what happens when this critical reading is joined with critical reflection on the reader's own social location.

Download or read book 1 Esdras written by Dieter Böhler and published by Kohlhammer Verlag. This book was released on 2016-07-06 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1 Esdras is an alternative version of the book of Ezra-Nehemiah in the Septuagint. Most Eastern Orthodox churches accord the book canonical status. This is the first commentary on 1 Esdras based on the critical text of the Göttingen Septuagint edition. It understands 1 Esdras not simply as a fragment of the Chronistic history or as merely a compilation, but rather as a coherent narrative. Its interpretation as a literary work and the reconstruction of its composition take into account both the historical backgrounds of the narrative setting of the Persian period and the historical location of the composition in the Hasmonaean period. 1 Esdras is currently enjoying a period of renewed attention in scholarship. Its relationship to Ezra-Nehemiah is seen as a prime example of literary-historical developments in Israel.
Book Synopsis Approaches to the 'Chosen Place' by : Rannfrid I. Thelle
Download or read book Approaches to the 'Chosen Place' written by Rannfrid I. Thelle and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-04-10 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deuteronomy's command to restrict cultic practice to one "chosen place" has occupied a central position in scholars' understandings of the book and their reconstruction of Israelite political and religious history. The debates about the date of Deuteronomy, its proposed connections to "Josiah's reform", and, most profoundly, the "Deuteronomistic History (DH) hypothesis" have dominated study of the idea of "chosen place". These debates have, to a large extent, determined how we read Deuteronomy and the Former Prophets in general. Through a reading of key texts from these corpora, this book provides a new, textually grounded, perspective of the "chosen place."
Book Synopsis Centrality Practiced by : Melody D. Knowles
Download or read book Centrality Practiced written by Melody D. Knowles and published by Society of Biblical Lit. This book was released on 2006 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "At the end of exile, the boundaries of sacred geography were open for renegotiation: YHWH could once again dwell in Jerusalem in a rebuilt temple, and temple centrality could be renewed. Yet how were such abstract theological and geographical commitments enacted? To what extent was the influence of the city felt and practiced in Yehud or far-away Egypt and Babylon? To answer such questions, this volume examines 'centrality' through the practices of animal sacrifice, pilgrimage, tithing, and the use of incense and figurines. Unique in its appraisal of centrality via religious practice and in its integration of the biblical text and archaeological record, [this study] offers a compelling portrait of the variegated centralities of the Jerusalem temple in the Persian period." -- Back cover

Book Synopsis Hezekiah in History and Tradition by : Robb Andrew Young
Download or read book Hezekiah in History and Tradition written by Robb Andrew Young and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-05-03 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Judean monarch Hezekiah remains one of the most significant figures in biblical studies. For all of his greatness, however, there is little about him that may be stated with certainty. This study provides a detailed reexamination of this enterprising ruler. It commences with data outside the biblical text from Assyrian records and ancient Near Eastern archaeology which may be brought to bear in reconstructing the historical Hezekiah, and subsequently proceeds to augment this picture based on his portrayal in the books of Kings, First Isaiah, and Chronicles. Its focus is on those issues that either remain contentious in biblical scholarship, or else have been resolved into a general consensus that needs to be called into question.
