Book excerpt: The Bible in the Armenian Tradition provides a concise historical account of the development of the Bible in Armenia and the illustrative traditions that are represented in surviving codices. The author focuses on the origins of the first translations of the Bible into Armenian in the fourth century, which inspired the Armenian alphabet itself. A range of beautiful Armenian Bible manuscripts from collections throughout the world are illustrated in full color and compared with western Bible illuminations. Later printed Armenian Bibles are also examined in detail, revealing fascinating examples of religious differences between the Armenian and the Catholic Christian traditions. This survey of Armenian Bible history is an important reference for biblical scholars and anyone with an interest in the history of Christianity.
Book Synopsis The Book of Sirach in the Armenian Biblical Tradition by : Garegin Hambardzumyan
Download or read book The Book of Sirach in the Armenian Biblical Tradition written by Garegin Hambardzumyan and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extreme complexity of Sirach’s text at times makes it almost impossible to come to one clear conclusion as regards certain issues. There are numerous differences between various translations of this deuterocanonical text. In addition, the Armenian translation, being a textual witness to not one but multiple parent texts, has its own complications. This research provides a sustained theological reading of the Armenian text of Sirach on the basis of Yakob Nalean’s commentary written in the 18th century. At the same time it places a great emphasis on the textual evaluation of the various versions of Sirach in Armenian. In this respect an attempt has been made to display the unique features of the Armenian Sirach within the wider scope of the scholarship of this biblical text. Through a comprehensive linguistic and theological analysis of some major parts of Sirach in Armenian, this study assesses the extent to which this book was in use amongst Armenians throughout the centuries. In particular, the numerous references to Sirach in both Armenian and non-Armenian patristic literature are examined, with the aim of dating the first translations into Armenian and tracing the development of the text in the Armenian medieval schools.

Book Synopsis Adam and Eve in the Armenian Tradition, Fifth through Seventeenth Centuries by : Michael E. Stone
Download or read book Adam and Eve in the Armenian Tradition, Fifth through Seventeenth Centuries written by Michael E. Stone and published by Society of Biblical Lit. This book was released on 2013-10-14 with total page 764 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Adam and Eve stories are a foundational myth in the Jewish and Christian worlds, and the way they were recounted reveals a great deal about those doing the retelling. How did the Armenians retell these stories? What values do these retellings express about men and women, their life in the world, sin and redemption? Presented here are twelve hundred years of Armenian telling of the Genesis 1–3 stories in an unparalleled collection of all significant narratives of Adam and Eve in Armenian literature—prose and poetry, homilies and commentaries, calendary and mathematical texts—from its inception in the fifth century to the seventeenth century. This seminal resource contributes to the lively current discussion of how biblical and apocryphal traditions were retold, embroidered, and transformed into the lenses through which the Bible itself was read.
Book Synopsis The Original Ending of Mark by : Nicholas P Lunn
Download or read book The Original Ending of Mark written by Nicholas P Lunn and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although traditionally accepted by the church down through the centuries, the longer ending of Mark's Gospel (16:9-20) has been relegated by modern scholarship to the status of a later appendage. The arguments for such a view are chiefly based upon the witness of the two earliest complete manuscripts of Mark, and upon matters of language and style. This work shows that these primary grounds of argumentation are inadequate. It is demonstrated that the church fathers knew the Markan ending from the very earliest days, well over two centuries before the earliest extant manuscripts. The quantity of unique terms in the ending is also seen to fall within the parameters exhibited by undisputed Markan passages. Strong indications of Markan authorship are found in the presence of specific linguistic constructions, a range of literary devices, and the continuation of various themes prominent within the body of the Gospel. Furthermore, the writings of Luke show that the Gospel of Mark known to this author containedthe ending. Rather than being a later addition, the evidence is interpreted in terms of a textual omission occurring at a later stage in transmission, probably in Egypt during the second century.
Book Synopsis Apocrypha, Pseudepigrapha, and Armenian Studies: Apocrypha, Pseudepigrapha, and Dead Sea scrolls by : Michael E. Stone

Stone, written over a period of 35 years. Stone is a leading scholar in two different fields of research, the Jewish literature of the Second Temple period including the Dead Sea Scrolls, and Armenian Studies. So this collection includes essays relating to the origins and nature of the Apocryphal literature and its relationship with the Dead Sea Scrolls, as well as more specific studies devoted to themes that have interested Stone throughout his career, including Messianism, 4 Ezra, Adam and Eve, and Aramaic Levi Document. His Armenian interests have embraced the Armenian Biblical text, Armenian pilgrimage to and presence in the Holy Land and Armenian paleography and epigraphy. Papers included in the volumes, some of which were originally published in obscure venues, touch on all these themes. A number of previously unpublished papers are included.
Book Synopsis The Orthodox Christian World by : Augustine Casiday
Download or read book The Orthodox Christian World written by Augustine Casiday and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last century unprecedented numbers of Christians from traditionally Orthodox societies migrated around the world. Once seen as an ‘oriental’ or ‘eastern’ phenomenon, Orthodox Christianity is now much more widely dispersed, and in many parts of the modern world one need not go far to find an Orthodox community at worship. This collection offers a compelling overview of the Orthodox world, covering the main regional traditions of Orthodox Christianity and the ways in which they have become global. The contributors are drawn from the Orthodox community worldwide and explore a rich selection of key figures and themes. The book provides an innovative and illuminating approach to the subject, ideal for students and scholars alike.

Book Synopsis New Approaches to Medieval Armenian Language and Literature by : Joseph Johannes Sicco Weitenberg
Download or read book New Approaches to Medieval Armenian Language and Literature written by Joseph Johannes Sicco Weitenberg and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-03-13 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a reevaluation of the character of medieval (12-17th century) Armenian literature and language. It contains a number of contributions by leading Armenologists (Cowe, Russell, Thomson, and Stone) and of a younger generation of scholars who attempt to confront the traditional approach of this period with the new insights gained in modern occidental medieval studies. One may call these papers New because they study the literary highlights not only of Cilician Armenia of the Crusader period, but of all Armenia and put these in a wider cultural context: the authors emphasize both inner-Armenian continuity and contemporary external (Persian, Turkish) literary and linguistic influences. The papers concern Armenian lyrical poetry, models for the evaluation of the medieval Armenian literary production (both traditional and new), and the linguistic conditions which favoured such a production. Particular attention has been given to the cultural background of Armenian grammatical studies and to the character of the first Armenian grammars printed in the Occident.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 21st Century Burning Bushes series is about the incredible, the unusual, the wonderful, the miraculous as well as the strange, the terrifying, the surprising, the horrific, and the signs that are all around us - all amazing Burning Bushes. We have a choice - as non-Christians, Christians, or even congregations and churches. Will we turn aside and examine what these Burning Bushes mean? What are they saying, and how are they connected? Or will we retire in the comfort of the familiar - in our bubbles? These Burning Bushes have been around for centuries - even millennia. Nevertheless, in the 21st century, their brightness and frequency are increasing. It is critical for us to be aware, prepared, and amazed. More importantly, we need to be operational: turn around and examine the implications and act accordingly. The Creator is speaking through these Burning Bushes. They all point to the nature and character of our Lord Jesus Christ. They are all pre-cursors to a final showdown. Each chapter of the book series (there will be four volumes, Lord willing) uncovers a Burning Bush and delves deep into its ramification and affinity with other Burning Bushes. Also, each chapter provides pragmatic recommendations for action.
