Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays in Pentateuchal Criticism The chapters of this book have already appeared as articles in the Bibliotheca Sacra for 1908 and 1909. The first five chapters were published as a series under the title "Essays in Pentateuchal Criticism"; the sixth was written as a sequel to that series and retains that character in the present volume. A few slips have been corrected, and the discussion of the clue to the documents has now been placed in its proper position, but no substantial changes have been effected. It may, I think, fairly be said that the general critical position represented by this volume differs from the positions generally held in two fundamental respects. First, there is the attitude adopted towards textual criticism. In dealing with writings that have for many centuries depended on a Ms. text, the first step must be to use all the available material with a view to ascertaining what the authors actually wrote. In the case of the Pentateuch this precaution has hitherto been neglected. The result is that at the present day Pentateuchal studies are conducted on lines to which it would be difficult to find a parallel in any other field of research. Take, for example, Astruc's famous clue, the use of the Divine appellations in the book of Genesis. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Treasures Old and New written by Joseph Blenkinsopp and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pentateuch is one anchor of the Western religious heritage, a rich source of theological and spiritual instruction capable of being plumbed again and again. In "Treasures Old and New" accomplished biblical scholar Joseph Blenkinsopp engages twelve topics of great interest to thoughtful people today, and does so in dialogue with texts from the Pentateuch. In keeping with the view that the Pentateuch is far too multiplex to be encapsulated in a single theological system, Blenkinsopp has written "Treasures Old and New" as a sketchbook of theology in the Pentateuch. This fruitful approach allows him to consider themes that easily fall through the cracks of more systematic works of biblical theology. Among the many interesting subjects Blenkinsopp explores are the role of memory in the construction of the past, the dependence of Christianity on Judaism, the close connection between sacrifice and community in Old Testament Israel, the proper meaning of human stewardship of the world, and belief (or lack of belief) in a meaningful post-mortem existence. Blenkinsopp believes that scripture is infinitely interpretable, and that we are free to read the Bible in more flexible, fascinating, and exciting ways. In keeping with the great variety of discourses in the Pentateuch, the standard historical-critical method must coexist with other, and in some cases, much older interpretive approaches to texts. Blenkinsopp here ably demonstrates this perspectival approach to scripture by reading well-known texts from less well-known angles. The Garden of Eden story, for example, gains in resonance when read together with "Gilgamesh," and the laws governing diet and cleanliness come clearer in thelight of current ecological concerns. Blenkinsopp's approach also throws new light on such important yet enigmatic stories as the Creation, Cain and Abel, the Flood, the Tower of Babel, the Call of Abram, Sodom and Gomorrah, and others. Blessed with an extraordinary ability to transmit complex issues in concise and lucid fashion, Blenkinsopp has put forth great effort to make this sketchbook accessible. Footnotes have been kept to a minimum, and Blenkinsopp has transliterated the few Hebrew references and used his own, more idiomatic translations of biblical texts wherever they seemed clearer than the standard translations. As a result, this volume can be pursued profitably by scholars, students, and readers alike. Above all, "Treasures Old and New" shows that serious engagement with biblical texts, while sometimes demanding, can be intellectually and religiously rewarding.

Download or read book Method Matters written by David L. Petersen and published by Society of Biblical Lit. This book was released on 2009 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the field of biblical studies expands to accommodate new modes of inquiry, scholars are increasingly aware of the need for methodological clarity. David L. Petersens teaching, research, and service to the guild are marked by a commitment to such clarity. Thus, in honor of Petersens work, a cohort of distinguished colleagues presents this volume as an authoritative and up-to-date handbook of methods in Hebrew Bible scholarship. Readers will find focused discussions of traditional and newly emerging methods, including historical criticism, ideological criticism, and literary criticism, as well as numerous case studies that indicate how these approaches work and what insights they yield. Additionally, several essays provide a broad overview of the field by reflecting on the larger intellectual currents that have generated and guided contemporary biblical scholarship.The contributors are Yairah Amit, Pablo R.
