Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay on the Place of Ecclesiasticus in Semitic Literature: Being the Inaugural Lecture Among the many merits of Dr. Hatch's Studies in Biblical Greek, not the least consists in his having called attention to the interesting problems connected with the text of Ecclesiasticus, a field into which he invites collaborateurs. Those problems are indeed peculiarly interesting. We have two independent versions in Syriac and in Greek, each made from a Semitic original; and the Greek version exists in several different recensions, embodying progressive revisions by persons who had the original before them; and there is a third version in Latin, in a remarkable dialect, really a farrago of several versions, one of which gives independent testimony concerning the original, whether directly or indirectly obtained. Besides these versions there are many quotations and reminiscences in the Rabbinical literature, which, if they make little claim to accuracy, give help and guidance in estimating the other evidence. Now if the translators had done their work well, we should have known exactly what Ben-Sira meant, but have had no clue to what he wrote. As the case stands, they have done their work so badly, notably the Syrian translator, that there are few verses in which some scrap of the original does not appear through the versions; for it is rare that more than one Hebrew word can be represented in the same two ways, although the imperfection of the Semitic writing leads to greater ambiguities than would be possible in a Western document.

This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discovery of Hebrew manuscripts of Ben Sira in the Cairo Genizah has shaped and transformed the interpretation of the book. It is argued here that a proper appreciation of the manuscripts themselves is also essential for understanding this ancient work. Since their discovery 120 years ago and subsequent identification of leaves, attention has been directed to the interpretation of the ancient book, the Wisdom of Ben Sira. Serious consideration should also be given to the Hebrew manuscripts themselves and their particular contributions to understanding the language and transmission of the book. The surprising appearance of a work that was preserved by Christians and denounced by some Rabbis raises questions over the preservation of the book. At the same time, diversity among the manuscripts means that exegesis has to be built on an appreciation of the individual manuscripts. The contributors examine the manuscripts in this light, examining their discovery, the codicology and reception of the manuscripts within rabbinic and medieval Judaism, and the light they throw on the Hebrew language and poetic techniques. The book is essential reading for those working on Ben Sira, the reception of the deuterocanon, and Medieval Hebrew manuscripts.

This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cairo Genizah is considered one of the world's greatest Hebrew manuscript treasures. Yet the story of how over a quarter of a million fragments hidden in Egypt were discovered and distributed around the world, before becoming collectively known as “The Cairo Genizah,” is far more convoluted and compelling than previously told. The full story involves an international cast of scholars, librarians, archaeologists, excavators, collectors, dealers and agents, operating from the mid-nineteenth to the early twentieth century, and all acting with varying motivations and intentions in a race for the spoils. Basing her research on a wealth of archival materials, Jefferson reconstructs how these protagonists used their various networks to create key alliances, or to blaze lone trails, each one on a quest to recover ancient manuscripts. Following in their footsteps, she takes the reader on a journey down into ancient caves and tombs, under medieval rubbish mounds, into hidden attic rooms, vaults, basements and wells, along labyrinthine souks, and behind the doors of private clubs and cloistered colleges. Along the way, the reader will also learn about the importance of establishing manuscript provenance and authenticity, and the impact to our understanding of the past when either factor is in doubt.
