This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Semitic Studies in Memory of Rev. Dr. Alexander Kohut This gathering of noted bookmen must, therefore, not be regarded in the light of an apotheosis, though the united homage of such high-priests of intellect sheds a peculiar luster upon his name. He who exalts another, said the Rabbis, is himself exalted. Thus, indeed, the halo of dignity rests wholly upon them, whose scholarly sympathies are here crystallized into thoughts that make them all kindled with him, who has struggled and searched after truth, and in searching, died for it.

Download or read book The Jews of Khazaria written by Kevin Alan Brook and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jews of Khazaria explores the history and culture of Khazaria—a large empire in eastern Europe (located in present-day Ukraine and Russia) in the early Middle Ages noted for its adoption of the Jewish religion. The third edition of this modern classic features new and updated material throughout, including new archaeological findings, new genetic evidence, and new information about the migration of the Khazars. Though little-known today, Khazaria was one of the largest political formations of its time—an economic and cultural power connected to several important trade routes and known for its religious tolerance. After the royal family converted to Judaism in the ninth century, many nobles and common people did likewise. The Khazars were ruled by a succession of Jewish kings and adopted many hallmarks of Jewish civilization, including study of the Torah and Talmud, Hebrew script, and the observance of Jewish holidays. The third edition of The Jews of Khazaria tells the compelling true story of this kingdom past.
Download or read book The Book of Job in Jewish Life and Thought written by Jason Kalman and published by Hebrew Union College Press. This book was released on 2021-12-20 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite its general absence from the Jewish liturgical cycle and its limited place in Jewish practice, the Book of Job has permeated Jewish culture over the last 2,000 years. Job has not only had to endure the suffering described in the biblical book, but the efforts of countless commentators, interpreters, and creative rewriters whose explanations more often than not challenged the protagonist's righteousness in order to preserve Divine justice. Beginning with five critical essays on the specific efforts of ancient, medieval, and modern Jewish writers to make sense of the biblical book, this volume concludes with a detailed survey of the place of Job in the Talmud and Midrashic corpus, in medieval biblical commentary, in ethical, mystical, and philosophical tracts, as well as in poetry and creative writing in a wide variety of Jewish languages from around the world from the second to sixteenth centuries.
Download or read book Going West written by Reuven Kiperwasser and published by SBL Press. This book was released on 2021-11-05 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book by Reuven Kiperwasser examines the social, cultural, and religious aspects of third- to sixth-century narratives involving rabbinic figures migrating between Babylonia and Palestine. Kiperwasser draws on migration and mobility studies, comparative literature, humor and satire studies, as well as social history to reveal how border-crossing rabbis were seen as exporting features of their previous eastern context into their new western homes and vice versa. Through their writing, rabbinic authors articulated the nature and legitimacy of their own scholastic practices, knowledge, and authority in relationship to their internal others.

Download or read book A Jewish Targum in a Christian World written by Alberdina Houtman and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-02-20 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the use of a Targum in a cultural setting where Aramaic is not a common language anymore? And why would Christians be interested in a typically Jewish text in an otherwise anti-Jewish milieu? These and related questions have served as guides for Alberdina Houtman, Eveline van Staalduine-Sulman and Hans-Martin Kirn in bringing together the articles for the present book, which consists of three parts: 1. Uses and Functions of Targum in Europe; 2. Editing Targums and their Latin Translations; 3. Targums and Christianity. A number of the articles deal with the codicological and paratextual aspects of the relevant manuscripts and editions as witnesses of their cultural historical situations. The intended readership includes specialists in Targum, Jewish and medieval studies, (church) historians, codicologists and (Christian) theologians.
Download or read book On Conditionals in the Greek Pentateuch written by Anwar Tjen and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2010-07-29 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines conditionals in the Greek Pentateuch from the point of view of the study of translation syntax. It takes seriously into account the double character of Septuagintal Greek, both as a translation from Hebrew and as vernacular Greek. Methodologically, the underlying Hebrew is taken as the point of departure in close comparison with the resultant translation, with the purpose of examining major features in the translators? handling of this complex construction. These include the rendering of verbal and non-verbal forms in the protasis and apodosis, the question of sense-division between the two constituent clauses, the influence of genre or discourse type and interference from the underlying form or structure. Detailed analyses of the resultant translation displays features that are natural Greek, on the one hand, and features that betray the character of "translation-language", on the other hand, owing to interference from the source text. The latter manifests itself most conspicuously in renderings that are ungrammatical or unnatural, and, in a more subtle way, through equivalents which are grammatically acceptable but occur with a strikingly high frequency in the Septuagint as compared with original Greek compositions contemporary with the Septuagint.
