Book The Great Isaiah Scroll  1QIsaa

Download or read book The Great Isaiah Scroll 1QIsaa written by Donald Parry and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-12-24 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition comprises new transcriptions of the great Isaiah Scroll (1QIsaa), with photographs and a bibliography. The transcriptions were created from the leather scroll itself which is housed in the Shrine of the Book of the Israel Museum, Jerusalem and from three different sets of photographs. The transcriptions were then checked against enhanced computer images of the John C. Trever negatives, which were scanned into digitized format, manipulated and enhanced to illuminate difficult-to-read characters. The goal of this edition of the transcriptions is to represent the text with the greatest possible accuracy; most emendations by different scribal hands are indicated. It does not, however, indicate all the technical details regarding the corrections. The photographs belong to the S.J. Schweig and the John C. Trever collections. The 25-page bibliography pertains to scholarly materials which deal with 1QIsaa.

Book Focusing Biblical Studies  The Crucial Nature of the Persian and Hellenistic Periods

Download or read book Focusing Biblical Studies The Crucial Nature of the Persian and Hellenistic Periods written by Jon L. Berquist and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume makes a positive intervention into maximalist/minimalist debates about Israelite historiography by pointing to the events that happened during the Persian and Hellenistic periods. During this historical epoch, traditions about Israel and Judah's founding became fixed as markers of ethnic identity, and much of the canonical Hebrew Bible came into its present form. Concentrating on these events, a clearer historical picture emerges. The entire volume is set within the context of Douglas A. Knight's contributions, which have encouraged a rigorous social-scientific and tradition-historical approach to the Hebrew Bible and ancient Israel in general.

Book Is Paul also among the Prophets

Download or read book Is Paul also among the Prophets written by Jeffrey W. Aernie and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-05-03 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aernie examines the prophetic material in the Old Testament and its relationship with the prophetic material in Second Temple Judaism, Hellenism, and the early Christian movement. The subsequent analysis of 1 Corinthians constitutes an investigation of the effect of the Old Testament prophetic tradition on Paul's self-presentation in 1 Cor 9.15-18 and rhetorical framework in 1 Cor 14.20-25 as a methodological foundation for the exegetical analysis of 2 Corinthians. Aernie explores the influence of the Old Testament prophetic tradition on Paul's apostolic self-presentation and rhetoric in 2 Corinthians. The analysis of Paul's self-presentation examines the apostle's relationship with Moses, the Isaianic servant, and Jeremiah in order to define Paul's position with regard to the preceding prophetic tradition. Aernie analyses Paul's argument in 2 Cor 2.14-16; 4.1-6; 6.14-7.1; 12.1-10 then seeks to examine the influence of the Old Testament prophetic tradition on the formation of Paul's rhetorical framework. Aernie's intention is to provide support for the notion that the particularly prophetic nature of Paul's apostolic persona affects both his self-presentation and rhetorical agenda in 2 Corinthians.

Book The Rhetorical Function of the Book of Ezekiel

Download or read book The Rhetorical Function of the Book of Ezekiel written by Thomas Renz and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-09-03 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyses the book of Ezekiel as a tool of communication, arguing that the book was designed to shape the self-understanding of the exilic community. A discussion of the historical context precedes a chapter that deals with the basic thrust and literary arrangement of Ezekiel. A detailed examination of individual rhetorical techniques (use of the watchman motif, legal traditions, emotional language, and others) and of crucial passages (especially 24:15-27 and 37:1-14) follows. The final chapter explores the book's suitability for the situation for which it was designed. This work gives readers the opportunity to study the book of Ezekiel as a whole and to explore some of its intricacies. Its methodology is an example of the fruitful integration of traditional critical methods and more recent literary and sociological approaches. This publication has also been published in paperback, please click here for details.

Book On Humour and the Comic in the Hebrew Bible

Download or read book On Humour and the Comic in the Hebrew Bible written by Athalya Brenner-Idan and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1990-10-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In comparison with other literary aspects of the Old Testament, humour has suffered much scholarly neglect. The present collection of essays (by the editors and ten other authors) argues that humour is plentiful in biblical literature and that many passages, indeed even whole books, can be properly understood only when the humorous intention of the author is acknowledged. This collection is a particularly interesting, innovative and provocative one.
