Book Jews  Bible and Prayer

  • Publisher : Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
  • Release : 2017-05-08
  • ISBN : 3110485850
  • Pages : 388 pages

Download or read book Jews Bible and Prayer written by Stefan C. Reif and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-05-08 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his articles Stefan Reif deas with Jewish biblical exegesis and the close analysis of the evolution of Jewish prayer texts. Some fourteen of these that appeared in various collective volumes are here made more easily available, together with a major new study of Numbers 13, an introduction and extensive indexes. Reif attempts to establish whether there is any linguistic, literary and exegetical value in the traditional Jewish interpretation of the Hebrew Bible for the modern scientific approach to such texts and whether such an approach itself is always free of theological bias. He demonstrates how Jewish liturgical texts may illuminate religious teachings about wisdom, history, peace, forgiveness, and divine metaphors. Also clarified in these essays are notions of David, Greek and Hebrew, divine metaphors, and the liturgical use of the Hebrew Bible.

Book A Journey of Two Psalms

Download or read book A Journey of Two Psalms written by Susan Gillingham and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-12-13 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For two-and-a-half millennia these two psalms have been commented on, translated, painted, set to music, employed in worship, and adapted in literature, often being used disputatiously by Jews and Christians alike. Psalm 1 is about the Law; at the heart of Psalm 2 is the Anointed One ('Messiah'), and together they serve as a Prologue to the rest of the Psalter. They have frequently been read as one composite poem, with the Temple as one of the motifs uniting them. So three themes—Jewish and Christian disputes, the interrelationship of these psalms, and the Temple—are interwoven throughout this reception history analysis. The journey starts in ancient Judaism, moves on to early Christianity, then to rabbinic and medieval Judaism, and so to Christian commentators from the early Middle Ages to the Reformation. The journey pauses to look at four important modes of reception—liturgical use, visual exegesis, musical interpretation, and imitation in English literature. Thirty-eight colour plates and numerous musical and poetic examples bring the work to life. The journey continues by looking at the debates about these psalms which have occupied scholars since the Enlightenment, and ends with a chapter which surveys their reception history in the light of the three key themes.

Book Jewish Ceremonial Objects in Transcultural Context

Download or read book Jewish Ceremonial Objects in Transcultural Context written by Julie-Marthe Cohen and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The opening of a new permanent exhibition on religion in the Jewish Historical Museum of Amsterdam in November 2004, which was accompanied by a catalogue entitled Gifts from the Heart: Ceremonial Objects from the Jewish Historical Museum, Amsterdam, gave rise to the idea for this volume. Both this publication and the preceding catalogue on the museum's textiles collection (1997) explore Dutch Jewish ceremonial objects, their aesthetic quality and historical background. This issue of Studia Rosenthaliana covers a wider field: the setting is Europe rather than local, and the primary focus is ceremonial objects in their transcultural context. The first cluster of contributions explore the origins of the forms and symbolism of various ceremonial objects, and interpret them as the outcome of the interplay between Jewish (religious) tradition and the surrounding culture. The articles in the second group deal with the impact of specific historical circumstances on objects, their conception and production. In the third section, two inventories of ceremonial objects belonging to Amsterdam's Sephardi and Ashkenazi communities of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries are presented. Following our tradition, the volume concludes with an appropriate item from the Bibliotheca Rosenthaliana.

Close attention is also paid to specific interpretative problems which emerge in the Psalms, both linguistic and theological.
