Book Synopsis Collected Studies on the Septuagint by : Jan Joosten
Download or read book Collected Studies on the Septuagint written by Jan Joosten and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2012 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume Jan Joosten brings together seventeen articles, published in journals and collective volumes between 1996 and 2008, with one unpublished essay. In these essays he deals mainly with questions of language and interpretation in the earliest Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible. Many of Jan Joosten's studies take their point of departure in one or the other striking features in the language of the Septuagint, propose a theory explaining its peculiarity, and go on from there to relate the linguistic phenomenon to wider historical, exegetical or theological issues. Others deal with problems of method in establishing the historical background of the version, its relation to the Hebrew source text, and its theology. Taken as a whole, Jan Joosten offers an original contribution to a number of contemporary debates on the Old Greek version. Notably in this book he addresses from various perspectives the questions of who the translators were and what they tried to do.
Book Synopsis De-demonising the Old Testament by : Judit M. Blair
Download or read book De-demonising the Old Testament written by Judit M. Blair and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2009 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Judit M. Blair challenges the common view that azazel, lilith, deber, qeteb and reshef are names of 'demons' in the Hebrew Bible, claiming that major works on the subject proceed from the assumption that these terms were demons in the ancient Near East and /or later, or that they were deities who became 'demonised' by the authors of the Hebrew Bible. Without questioning the validity of traditional methods she supplements the existing works by making an exegesis based on a close reading of all the relevant texts of the Hebrew Bible in which these five terms occur. Close attention is paid to the linguistic, semantic, and structural levels of the texts. The emphasis is on a close examination of the immediate context in order to determine the function of each term. The author notes different signals within the texts, especially the use of the various poetical/rhetorical devices: personification, parallelism, similes, irony, and mythological elements.

Book Synopsis A Study of Hata and Hatta't in Leviticus 4-5 by : Nobuyoshi Kiuchi
Download or read book A Study of Hata and Hatta't in Leviticus 4-5 written by Nobuyoshi Kiuchi and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2003 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through a close semantic analysis of the Hebrew terms hata' and hatta't (commonly translated as 'sin') in Leviticus 4-5, this study reveals their lexical meanings, unknown for two millennia both in Judaism and in Christianity. 'Sin' has been commonly understood as referring mainly to a violation of God's commandment pertaining to personal conduct. However the revision Nobuyoshi Kiuchi proposes for the meanings of the terms has significant and far-reaching implications for other major themes such as uncleanness and atonement, meaning human salvation before God. The author also provides a solution to the question of the relationship between sin and uncleanness.
Book Synopsis Studien zur Bedeutung der Opfer im Alten Testament by : Christian Eberhart
Download or read book Studien zur Bedeutung der Opfer im Alten Testament written by Christian Eberhart and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Bedeutung der Opfer im Alten Testament bleibt umstritten, auch wenn neueren Ansätzen zufolge der Schlüssel zum Verständnis in der Tiertötung sowie den Blutapplikationsriten zu suchen sei. Eine detaillierte Auswertung der maßgeblichen alttestamentlichen Texte hinsichtlich der finalen und allen Opferarten gemeinsamen Ritualhandlung kommt jedoch zu der Alternative, vielmehr die feierliche Verbrennung der Opfermaterie auf dem Altar angemessen zu würdigen: Von hierher lassen sich Opfer als menschliche Gaben verstehen, die durch das Altarfeuer transformiert und so von Gott empfangen werden.
Book Synopsis Re-Reading the Scriptures by : Christoph Levin
Download or read book Re-Reading the Scriptures written by Christoph Levin and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2013 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains 15 papers written by Christoph Levin between 2001 and 2011, four of them unpublished. One main focus is on the Pentateuch, mainly on the oldest comprehensive narrative source, the Yahwist, which was written at the beginning of the Jewish diaspora. A second focus is on the books of Kings, on their chronological structure as well as on the final two chapters 2 Kgs 24-25. Christoph Levin also deals with the Israelite religion in the time of the monarchy, the origins of biblical Covenant theology, and the Old Testament attitude to poverty. All the papers are based on a detailed investigation of the literary growth of the biblical text. The author shows that the Old Testament as we know it originated from a process of continual re-reading during the Second Temple period.
Book Synopsis The Septuagint Version of Isaiah and Cognate Studies by : Isaac Leo Seeligmann
Download or read book The Septuagint Version of Isaiah and Cognate Studies written by Isaac Leo Seeligmann and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2004 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume makes accessible once more the groundbreaking work The Septuagint Version of Isaiah (1948) by Isac Leo Seeligmann (1907-1982), accompanied by two studies that have to be seen as prolegomena to the book. Both studies were published originally in the Dutch language, and the English translation of one of them appears in this volume for the first time. Seeligmann aims to understand the Septuagint as a witness of Hellenistic Judaism striving to maintain the text's special character as a document of faith. At the same time all of Seeligmann's works edited in this volume are documents of the suffering of European Judaism during the time of National Socialism. The new edition provides evidence of Seeligmann's approach to the Septuagint as a witness of Hellenistic Judaism which strives to maintain the text's special character as a document of faith. Because of this new access from the perspective of content and method, Seeligmann's influence on Septuagint research became so strong that it has lasted up to the present. The reader will realise that the history of Israel during the Hellenistic period does not simply represent an object of scholarly research for Seeligmann but also serves as the background for the interpretation of the history of the Jewish people in his own time.
Book Synopsis Iconographic Exegesis and Third Isaiah by : Izaak Jozias Hulster
Download or read book Iconographic Exegesis and Third Isaiah written by Izaak Jozias Hulster and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2009 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although scholars employ pictorial material in biblical exegesis, the question of how images from the Ancient Near East can contribute to a better understanding of the Bible has been left unanswered. This is the first monograph to outline a historical method for iconographic exegesis. The methodological study includes both responses to important theoretical questions such as What is an image? and What is culture? and an interdisciplinary exploration of issues of history, art history, archaeology and cultural anthropology. The three-stage method proposed is embedded in hermeneutical and exegetical reflections. The application of iconographical exegesis to the interpretation of metaphors is also considered. In demonstrating the method and its application, Izaak J. de Hulster focuses on Third Isaiah and develops three iconographical exegetical studies on yad in Isaiah 56:5, light in Isaiah 60 and grape processing in Isaiah 63.
Book Synopsis Collective Reinterpretation in the Psalms by : Marko Marttila
Download or read book Collective Reinterpretation in the Psalms written by Marko Marttila and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2006 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Marko Marttila's study is a new contribution to the old question, how the 'I' of the Psalms should be understood. It seems that people who were responsible for editing the Hebrew Psalter more than two thousand years ago identified the suffering anonymous 'I' with the suffering people of Israel. Thus the editors in their own time attempted to make earlier texts more actual."--BOOK JACKET.
Book Synopsis History and the Hebrew Bible by : Hans M. Barstad
Download or read book History and the Hebrew Bible written by Hans M. Barstad and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2008 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of essays, Hans M. Barstad deals thoroughly with the recent history debate, and demonstrates its relevancy for the study of ancient Israelite history and historiography. He takes an independent stand in the heated maximalist/minimalist debate on the historicity of the Hebrew Bible. Vital to his understanding is the necessity to realize the narrative nature of the ancient Hebrew and of the Near Eastern sources. Equally important is his claim that stories, too, may convey positivistic historical "facts." The other major topic he deals with in the book is the actual history of ancient Judah in the Neo-Babylonian and Persian periods. Here, the author makes extensive use of extant ancient Near Eastern sources, both textual and archaeological, and he puts much weight on economic aspects. He shows that the key to understanding the role of Judah in the 1st millennium lays in the proper evaluation of Judah and its neighbouring city states within their respective imperial contexts. A proper understanding of the history of Judah during the 6th century BCE, consequently, can only be obtained when Judah is studied as a part of the much wider Neo-Babylonian imperial policy.
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 The Book within the Book by : Jean-Pierre Sonnet
Download or read book The Book within the Book written by Jean-Pierre Sonnet and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-08-30 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a fresh approach to an old issue: the question of Moses' authorship. Whereas traditional interpretation equated the "book" written by Moses (Deut 31:9,24) with Deuteronomy, and even with the Pentateuch, and while critical historical exegesis endeavors to identify Deuteronomy's successive redactors, this study assesses the literary claim of Deuteronomy as far as Moses' writing is concerned. The study first describes the process of communication in Deuteronomy's represented world (by Moses to the sons of Israel); it next characterizes the Book of Deuteronomy as communication (by the narrator to the reader); it eventually focuses on Deuteronomy's powerful embodiment of the theme of the "book within the book". Thus approached, Deuteronomy shows itself as a narrative theory of what (holy) "writ" is all about.
