This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pluriel et ancré dans son histoire, le judaïsme n'en obéit pas moins à une loi, la torah, dont le développement est soumis aux époques et aux régions qu'elle croise. Les huit siècles couverts ici sont ceux du glissement du judaïsme des prêtres à celui des chrétiens et des rabbins, du judaïsme de Palestine à celui de Diaspora. À la suite notamment de l'échec des révoltes contre Rome, il a fallu à ce peuple forgé dans la persécution et la déportation, qui ne reconnaît d'autre dieu que le sien, affirmer mais aussi - bien plus qu'on ne le pense - adapter son identité. Dans cette somme sur le judaïsme ancien qui noue l'histoire politique et l'histoire religieuse, il apparaît évident que l'évolution de la « religion » judéenne - juive -, mais aussi de la culture et de la société qui en découlent, n'est pas le produit d'une autarcie. Le judaïsme, au fur et à mesure, s'est moulé dans les époques qu'il a traversées, a évolué avec elles et les différentes cultures qui l'ont constitué. Cette histoire antique y est décryptée dans une étude qui fera date pour tous ceux qui cherchent à comprendre réellement les racines d'un judaïsme bien moins figé que l'historiographie ne l'a laissé transparaître jusqu'ici."--Quatrième de couverture
Book Synopsis Diversity and Rabbinization by : Gavin McDowell
Download or read book Diversity and Rabbinization written by Gavin McDowell and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2021-04-30 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains Hebrew and Syriac text. Please, check that your e-reader supports texts set in left-to-right direction before purchasing the epub and azw3 editions of the book. This volume is dedicated to the cultural and religious diversity in Jewish communities from Late Antiquity to the Early Middle Age and the growing influence of the rabbis within these communities during the same period. Drawing on available textual and material evidence, the fourteen essays presented here, written by leading experts in their fields, span a significant chronological and geographical range and cover material that has not yet received sufficient attention in scholarship. The volume is divided into four parts. The first focuses on the vantage point of the synagogue; the second and third on non-rabbinic Judaism in, respectively, the Near East and Europe; the final part turns from diversity within Judaism to the process of "rabbinization" as represented in some unusual rabbinic texts. Diversity and Rabbinization is a welcome contribution to the historical study of Judaism in all its complexity. It presents fresh perspectives on critical questions and allows us to rethink the tension between multiplicity and unity in Judaism during the first millennium CE. L’École Pratique des Hautes Études has kindly contributed to the publication of this volume.
Book Synopsis Beyond Priesthood by : Richard L. Gordon
Download or read book Beyond Priesthood written by Richard L. Gordon and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-08-21 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last decade has seen a surge of scholarly interest in these religious professionals and a good number of high quality publications. Our volume, however, with its unique intercultural character and its explicit focus on appropriation and contestation of religious expertise in the Imperial Era is substantially different. Unlike the rather narrow focus of earlier studies of civic priests, the papers presented here examine a wider range of religious professionals, their dynamic interaction with established religious authorities and institutions, and their contributions to religious innovation in the ancient Mediterranean world, from the late Hellenistic period through to Late Antiquity, from the City of Rome to mainland Greece, Asia Minor, Syria and Egypt, from Greek civic practice to ancient Judaism. A further advantage of our volume is the wide range of media of transmission taken into account. Our contributors look at both old and new materials, which derive not only from literary sources but also from papyri, inscriptions, and material culture. Above all, this volume assesses critically convenient terminological usage and offers a unique insight into a rich gamut of ancient Mediterranean religious specialists.
Book Synopsis From Jesus to his First Followers: Continuity and Discontinuity by : Adriana Destro
Download or read book From Jesus to his First Followers: Continuity and Discontinuity written by Adriana Destro and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-02-06 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Jesus to His First Followers examines to what extent early Christian groups were in continuity or discontinuity with respect to Jesus. Adriana Destro and Mauro Pesce concentrate on the transformation of religious practices. Their anthropological-historical analysis focuses on the relations between discipleship and households, on the models of contact with the supernatural world, and on cohabitation among distinct religious groups. The book highlights how Matthew uses non-Jewish instruments of legitimation, John reformulates religious experiences through symbolized domestic slavery, Paul adopts a religious practice diffused in Roman-Hellenistic environments. The book reconstructs the map of early Christian groups in the Land of Israel and explains their divergences on the basis of an original theory of the local origin of Gospels’ information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The following book investigates Luke's perspective on the salvation of Israel in light of Jewish restoration eschatology. It situates Luke-Acts in the aftermath of the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE. The author of Luke-Acts did not write the Jews off but still awaited the restoration of Israel. Luke conceived of Israel's eschatological restoration in traditional Jewish terms. The nation of Israel would experience liberation in the fullest sense, including national and political restoration"--

Book Synopsis The Origins of the Canon of the Hebrew Bible by : Juan Carlos Ossandón Widow
Download or read book The Origins of the Canon of the Hebrew Bible written by Juan Carlos Ossandón Widow and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Origins of the Canon of the Hebrew Bible: An Analysis of Josephus and 4 Ezra, Juan Carlos Ossandón Widow examines the thorny question of when, how, and why the collection of twenty-four books that today is known as the Hebrew Bible was formed. He carefully studies the two earliest testimonies in this regard—Josephus’ Against Apion and 4 Ezra—and proposes that, along with the tendency to idealize the past, which leads to consider that divine revelation to Israel has ceased, an important reason to specify a collection of Scriptures at the end of the first century CE consisted in the need to defend the received tradition to counter those that accepted more books.
Book Synopsis Jews and Christians in the First and Second Centuries: Mapping the Second Century by :
Download or read book Jews and Christians in the First and Second Centuries: Mapping the Second Century written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-09-19 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second century is a crucial period for the formation of both Judaism and Christianity, but remains in important ways terra incognita. This volume brings together specialists in Jewish studies and Christian studies, two closely related disciplines that nonetheless continue to operate in relative isolation. Taking into consideration the full panoply of Jewish and Christian identities, the volume proposes fresh ways to map the interrelated histories of Jews and Christians. Contributions by leading scholars offer new insights into this period informed by a rich variety of perspectives, including theoretical, literary, thematic and material approaches.
Book Synopsis The Routledge Handbook of Jews and Judaism in Late Antiquity by : Catherine Hezser
Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Jews and Judaism in Late Antiquity written by Catherine Hezser and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-01-24 with total page 746 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on the major issues and debates in the study of Jews and Judaism in late antiquity (third to seventh century C.E.), providing cutting-edge surveys of the state of scholarship, main topics and research questions, methodological approaches, and avenues for future research. Based on both Jewish and non-Jewish literary and material sources, this volume takes an interdisciplinary approach involving historians of ancient Judaism, scholars of rabbinic literature, archaeologists, epigraphers, art historians, and Byzantinists. Developments within Jewish society and culture are viewed within the respective regional, political, cultural, and socioeconomic contexts in which they took place. Special focus is given to the impact of the Christianization of the Roman Empire on Jews, from administrative, legal, social, and cultural points of view. The contributors examine how the confrontation with Christianity changed Jewish practices, perceptions, and organizational structures, such as, for example, the emergence of local Jewish communities around synagogues as central religious spaces. Special chapters are devoted to the eastern and western Jewish Diaspora in Late Antiquity, especially Sasanian Persia but also Roman Italy, Egypt, Syria and Arabia, North Africa, and Asia Minor, to provide a comprehensive assessment of the situation and life experiences of Jews and Judaism during this period. The Routledge Handbook of Jews and Judaism in Late Antiquity is a critical and methodologically sophisticated survey of current scholarship aimed primarily at students and scholars of Jewish Studies, Study of Religions, Patristics, Classics, Roman and Byzantine Studies, Iranology, History of Art, and Archaeology. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Judaism and Jewish history.
Download or read book Esther written by Jean-Daniel Macchi and published by Kohlhammer Verlag. This book was released on 2019-02-20 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Esther is one of the five Megillot. It tells the story of a Jewish girl in Persia, who becomes queen and saves her people from a genocide. The story of Esther forms the core of the Jewish festival of Purim. The commentary presents a literary analysis of the text, taking into account the inclusion and arrangement of different pericopes, and an analysis of the narration. Likewise, it will discuss the style, the syntax, and the vocabulary. The examination of the intellectual context of the book, biblical and extrabiblical textual traditions on which the book is based and with which it is in intertextual dialogue, leads to a discussion of the redactional process and the historical and social contexts in which the authors and redactors worked.
Book Synopsis Fountains of Wisdom by : Gerbern S. Oegema
Download or read book Fountains of Wisdom written by Gerbern S. Oegema and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 881 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading international contributors on biblical texts, including the New Testament and the Dead Sea Scrolls, intersect with the work of James H. Charlesworth and examine Charlesworth's vast contribution to the field of biblical studies, honoring the work of one of the most significant biblical scholars of his generation. Divided into five sections, this volume begins with a section on the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament texts, with particular focus on the Gospel of John and Jesus studies. The contexts of these texts are considered, with a focus on the Greco-Roman and Jewish worlds, and the varying intersections between texts and the worlds that created them. The contributors then focus on the most significant body of Charlesworth's work, the apocrypha/pseudepigrapha and the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the journey concludes with an assessment of the history of scholarship on the core areas addressed across the book.
Download or read book Les études philoniennes written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-07-19 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume gathers the proceedings of the Paris conference in Philonic studies (2017), consisting of 23 papers by contributors from 8 countries. Fifty years after the Lyon conference, it aimed at taking a retrospective look at the intellectual contexts and the academic fields in which Philonic studies have penetrated, as well as the ways in which they evolved. The work of the Alexandrian became of major importance in the history of philosophy. It has been studied as a source of cultured Christianity, in connection with Second Temple Judaism and the Alexandrian Jewish community, but also in the context of research on rabbinic Judaism, New Testament and philosophy of the imperial era. Ce volume rassemble les actes du colloque de Paris (2017), qui râeunit 23 intervenants de 8 nationalitâes. Cinquante ans apráes le colloque de Lyon, il s'agissait de râeflâechir aux milieux intellectuels et aux disciplines universitaires dans lesquels les âetudes philoniennes avaient pâenâetrâe le monde de la recherche, les bases sur lesquelles elles avaient âevoluâe. L'¶uvre de l'Alexandrin a pris une importance majeure dans l'histoire de la philosophie; elle a âetâe explorâee comme source du christianisme lettrâe, en lien avec le judaèisme de l'âEpoque du Second Temple et la communautâe juive d'Alexandrie, mais aussi dans le cadre des âetudes sur le judaèisme rabbinique, dans le dâeveloppement des âetudes sur le Nouveau Testament et sur la philosophie de l'âepoque impâeriale"--
Book Synopsis Essays on Philosophy and Religious Studies by : LIT Verlag
Download or read book Essays on Philosophy and Religious Studies written by LIT Verlag and published by LIT Verlag. This book was released on 2022-11-21 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analecta Bruxellensia has been since 1996 the annual review of the Protestant Faculties of Theology and Religious Studies (FUTP (French) and FPTR (Dutch)) in Brussels. Analecta 21 is a varied number. Three themes are developed covering exegetical, historical, sociological, theological and philosophical fields. The first explores hermeneutics related to the understanding and assimilation of the biblical text; the second addresses the weight of ideology in the construction of narratives invoked in the representation of the Other; the third pursues this theme of encounter and otherness in various historical perspectives. From a queer exegesis of the narrative of Acts 8 to the question of the extent of Christ's salvation in the hypothesis of inhabited worlds in science fiction literature, the eclecticism of these academic contributions, as well as their relevance to contemporary debates, promise the reader multiple changes of scenery and genuinely new thinking. This issue also includes a previously unpublished contribution by Paul Ricur, a restitution of a three-speaker conference given in January 2000 on the theme of justice between ethics and law.

Book excerpt: In a post-Trump era which has coaxed a wealth of far right antisemitism from the woodwork, this book explores the comparatively insidious tendency of the far left to associate Jews with disproportionate privilege due to the conflation of the Ashkenazi majority with whiteness in contemporary identity politics, and how both diaspora Jewry and Israel can oppose such a notion by re-embracing their Middle Eastern roots.
Download or read book After Law written by Laurent de Sutter and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-02-03 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Law is the most sacred fetish of our time. From radicals to conservatives, there is no militant, activist or thinker who would consider doing without it. But the history of our fascination with law is long and complex, and reaches deeper into our culture than we might think. In After Law, Laurent de Sutter takes us on a journey to uncover the sources of our fascination. He shows that at a certain moment in our history a choice was made to treat law as a decisive feature of civilization, but this choice was neither obvious nor necessary. Other political, social, religious or cultural possibilities could have been chosen instead – from ancient Egypt to Mesopotamia, from medieval Japan to China, from Islam to Judaism, other cultures have devised sophisticated tools to help people live together without having to deal with norms, rules and principles. This is a lesson worth reflecting on, especially at a time when the rule of law and the functioning of justice are increasingly showing their sinister side – and their impotence. Is there life beyond law?
Book Synopsis Farewell to Shulamit by : Carsten Wilke
Download or read book Farewell to Shulamit written by Carsten Wilke and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-04-10 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Song of Songs, a lyric cycle of love scenes without a narrative plot, has often been considered as the Bible’s most beautiful and enigmatic book. The present study questions the still dominant exegetical convention that merges all of the Song’s voices into the dialogue of a single couple, its composite heroine Shulamit being a projection screen for norms of womanhood. An alternative socio-spatial reading, starting with the Hebrew text’s strophic patterns and its references to historical realia, explores the poem’s artful alternation between courtly, urban, rural, and pastoral scenes with their distinct characters. The literary construction of social difference juxtaposes class-specific patterns of consumption, mobility, emotion, power structures, and gender relations. This new image of the cycle as a detailed poetic frieze of ancient society eventually leads to a precise hypothesis concerning its literary and religious context in the Hellenistic age, as well as its geographical origins in the multiethnic borderland east of the Jordan. In a Jewish echo of anthropological skepticism, the poem emphasizes the plurality and relativity of the human condition while praising the communicative powers of pleasure, fantasy, and multifarious Eros.
