Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Criticism of Systems of Hebrew Metre: An Elementary Treatise The time required to read the books worth reading so greatly exceeds the reading-time in any man's life, that each new book is properly challenged to show its importance and its freshness. It will not be denied that a system of Hebrew metre is important if true; for at the present moment, the whole field of Hebrew literature is in unstable equilibrium; to nothing fixed but love of change. There are many who assert and many who deny the value of metrical analysis as an aid in critical investigation of the original text; of the former class, there are various schools to be considered, each finding plausible reasons in favour of its position against all the others. The sublime confidence of the typical Metriker in his own statements of fact, which contradict his neighbour's statements regarding the same passage and even the same verse, is quite explicable when one remembers Legree's dictum in Uncle Tom's Cabin, 'I do the weighing.' Surely here, if anywhere, there is a call for level-headed judgement, that is, criticism; not necessarily condemnation, but the separation of the chaff from the wheat, and the judicial deciding among the doctors who disagree. If Englishmen and Americans have been somewhat backward in propounding theories, they may come forward with better grace in the role of Daniel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Word Biblical Commentary delivers the best in biblical scholarship, from the leading scholars of our day who share a commitment to Scripture as divine revelation. This series emphasizes a thorough analysis of textual, linguistic, structural, and theological evidence. The result is judicious and balanced insight into the meanings of the text in the framework of biblical theology. These widely acclaimed commentaries serve as exceptional resources for the professional theologian and instructor, the seminary or university student, the working minister, and everyone concerned with building theological understanding from a solid base of biblical scholarship. Overview of Commentary Organization Introduction—covers issues pertaining to the whole book, including context, date, authorship, composition, interpretive issues, purpose, and theology. Each section of the commentary includes: Pericope Bibliography—a helpful resource containing the most important works that pertain to each particular pericope. Translation—the author’s own translation of the biblical text, reflecting the end result of exegesis and attending to Hebrew and Greek idiomatic usage of words, phrases, and tenses, yet in reasonably good English. Notes—the author’s notes to the translation that address any textual variants, grammatical forms, syntactical constructions, basic meanings of words, and problems of translation. Form/Structure/Setting—a discussion of redaction, genre, sources, and tradition as they concern the origin of the pericope, its canonical form, and its relation to the biblical and extra-biblical contexts in order to illuminate the structure and character of the pericope. Rhetorical or compositional features important to understanding the passage are also introduced here. Comment—verse-by-verse interpretation of the text and dialogue with other interpreters, engaging with current opinion and scholarly research. Explanation—brings together all the results of the discussion in previous sections to expose the meaning and intention of the text at several levels: (1) within the context of the book itself; (2) its meaning in the OT or NT; (3) its place in the entire canon; (4) theological relevance to broader OT or NT issues. General Bibliography—occurring at the end of each volume, this extensive bibliographycontains all sources used anywhere in the commentary.
Download or read book The Basics of Hebrew Poetry written by Samuel T. S. Goh and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost 75 percent of the Old Testament is made up of poetic passages, yet for many readers (lay Christians, even seminary students and pastors), biblical poetic passages remain the greatest challenge. Being unfamiliar with poetry in general and biblical poetry in particular, their reading and preaching are limited to selected poetic passages. This in turn limits their understanding of God's word. To help readers overcome these problems, the first four chapters of this book aim to get them familiarized with the literary techniques of biblical poets. To demonstrate how the techniques work to bring across the biblical theological message, the last three chapters offer poetic analyses of three passages of different kinds. In the process, we hope to draw attention to the beauty of the Hebrew poetic art and to the creative skill of biblical poets' versification. The ultimate aim, however, is to help readers discover the rich message of the Bible.
