    Abstract: Spirit possession is more commonly associated with late Second Temple Jewish literature and the New Testament than it is with the Hebrew Bible. In Unfamiliar Selves in the Hebrew Bible, however, Reed Carlson argues that possession is also depicted in this earlier literature, though rarely according to the typical western paradigm. This new approach utilizes theoretical models developed by cultural anthropologists and ethnographers of contemporary possession-practicing communities in the global south and its diasporas. Carlson demonstrates how possession in the Bible is a corporate and cultivated practice that can function as social commentary and as a means to model the moral self.The author treats a variety of spirit phenomena in the Hebrew Bible, including spirit language in the Psalms and Job, spirit empowerment in Judges and Samuel, and communal possession in the prophets. Carlson also surveys apotropaic texts and spirit myths in early Jewish literature—including the Dead Sea Scrolls. In this volume, two recent scholarly trends in biblical studies converge: investigations into notions of evil and of the self. The result is a synthesizing project, useful to biblical scholars and those of early Judaism and Christianity alike

    Abstract: The first twenty-four chapters of the book of Ezekiel are characterised by vehement declarations of judgement. This observation leaves the impression that Ezekiel 1-7 is devoid of references to hope and restoration. However, there is a redactional stratum in this section that supplemented the texts with material that conveys restoration and hope for the future. In Ezekiel 1-7, many of these additions focus on priestly topics. The motif of restoration in the redactional material of Ezekiel 3-5 is expressed by the reinstatement of Ezekiel in his priestly role. This editorial emphasis on Ezekiel as priest in the redactional material suggests that the redaction was influenced by Zechariah 3, a text that depicts the reinstitution of the exiled Zadokite priesthood. Moreover, the redactional material of Ezekiel 6-7 drew inspiration from the Law of the Temple in Ezekiel 43-46, as the redactors sought to enhance Ezekiel's priestly role. The study provides new insights into how redactors, who may have been associated with the Zadokite priesthood, inserted the message of hope and restoration into the literary unit Ezekiel 1-7 during the post-exilic period

    Abstract: Frontmatter -- Inhalt -- Einführung -- Reste altorientalischen Prophetentums in der Bibel
    Abstract: Julius Wellhausen hat maßgeblich zum Verständnis der biblischen Prophetie beigetragen und gilt als einer der Erzväter des Prophetenbildes des 20. Jahrhunderts. Zusammen mit seinen Zeitgenossen rechnete er mit der evolutionären Entwicklung der israelitischen Religion, wobei die großen biblischen Propheten eine entscheidende Rolle spielten, indem sie die alte, der altorientalischen Umgebung ähnelnde Volksreligion “zu etwas anderem” machten. Zur Zeit Wellhausens waren die Quellen der außerbiblischen altorientalischen Prophetie schlecht bekannt, heute sind wir besser in der Lage, die biblische Prophetie gegen ihre altorientalische Hintergrund betrachten. Anhand der uns heute bekanntenTexten sind die „Reste altorientalischen Prophetentums“, d.h., die der altorientalisch-ostmediterranen Prophetie typischen Eigenschaften im Alten und sogar im Neuen Testament deutlich zu sehen. Unter solchen Merkmalen werden sowohl der Wort-Gottes-Begriff, die Verschriftlichung der Prophetie und die politische Bedeutung der Prophetie als auch der Tempel als die „geistige Heimat“ der Propheten, die Genderinklusivität und die prophetische Ekstase betrachtet

    Abstract: This dictionary encompasses the complete vocabulary of the Biblia Hebraica including its Aramaic passages, as well as the Hebrew and Aramaic fragments of the Books of Sirach and Tobit. It provides an index of references in the Old Hebrew inscriptions and in the Hebrew texts from the Judaean Desert, and provides an overview of the most important German translations, serving as a small-format translation aid
    Abstract: Während es eine ganze Reihe großer, mitunter mehrbändiger wissenschaftlicher Wörterbücher zum biblischen Hebräisch und Aramäisch gibt, existieren nur sehr wenige Taschenwörterbücher, die Studierenden einen schnellen Überblick über die wichtigsten deutschen Übersetzungsäquivalente bieten, ohne dass diese sich zunächst einen umfangreichen Apparat zur Etymologie und zu Belegstellen erschließen müssen.Das neue HAW will die großen Wörterbücher nicht ersetzen, sondern eine handliche Begleitung beim Übersetzen sein. Indem es auch den hebräischen und aramäischen Wortschatz der Bücher Jesus Sirach und Tobit sowie der althebräischen Inschriften aufgenommen hat sowie indiziert, welche Lexeme auch in den hebräischen Texten von Qumran vorkommen, geht es weit über das sehr bewährte alte HAW hinaus. Dabei basiert es auf dem aktuellen Stand der gegenwärtigen Hebraistik. Das HAW ist geeignet für den Einsatz in Hebräischkursen, in Lektüreübungen zur Hebräischen Bibel und zum frühjüdischen Schrifttum, zum Selbststudium und zur Vorbereitung auf das Hebraicum. Für letzteres ist es besonders zu empfehlen, weil es eine gute Kenntnis der hebräischen Formenbildung voraussetzt und weil es keine Übersetzungen ganzer Passagen aus der Hebräischen Bibel bietet

    Abstract: The study spotlights the importance of ethical discourse on icons in the Book of Wisdom. Using structural, semantic, and topological analyses, it shows that parenesis about false and true images of God is an overarching theme, and contextualizes it in terms of tradition and cultural history. The text makes a unique contribution to the ancient debate on images by positing that they fulfill the imago dei invested in human beings
    Abstract: Trotz des anhaltenden Interesses an der Sapientia Salomonis besteht hinsichtlich der inhaltlichen und gattunggeschichtlichen Gesamteinordnung der jüdisch-hellenistischen Schrift noch immer Dissens. Die Heterogenität der verwendeten Themen, Traditionen und Genres scheint diese zu unterbinden, bleiben doch die Studien bei Teilkomplexen oder bei der literarkritischen Feststellung der Uneinheitlichkeit des Textes stehen. Auch die zuletzt vermehrt zugeschriebene strukturelle Kohärenz führte bisher nicht zu einer entsprechenden inhaltlichen Gesamtdeutung der Schrift. Gestützt auf strukturelle, semantische und topologische Analysen wird in dieser Studie die Paränese hinsichtlich wahrer und falscher Gottesbildern als Leitmotiv bzw. Hauptthema der überlieferten Endkomposition aufgezeigt. Weitere bildtheoretische, traditions- sowie kulurgeschichtliche Kontextualisierungen explizieren die Spezifika der ethisch ikonischen Ausführungen. Mit dem Postulat der Verwirklichung des im Menschen angelegten Ebenbilds durch ethische Nachahmung Gottes bietet die Schrift letzlich nicht nur einen spezifisch jüdischen Beitrag zur antiken Bilderdebatte, ihr kommt zudem eine Brückenfunktion zwischen biblischen und späteren Imago-Dei-Konzeptionen zu

    Abstract: Die Frage der Beziehung zwischen dem Jesajabuch und dem Buch der Zwölf Propheten ist angesichts vielfältiger Berührungen sprachlicher und motivischer Art zentral, jedoch hinsichtlich der damit verbundenen möglichen Implikationen bislang nur ungenügend bearbeitet. Im Rahmen eines internationalen Kongresses, der vom 31.Mai bis 3.Juni 2018 an der Katholischen Universität Eichstätt-Ingolstadt stattfand, suchten Fachleute des Zwölfprophetenbuches bzw. des Jesajabuches mit unterschiedlichen methodischen Ansätzen ein umfassenderes Bild der verschiedenen Arten von Beziehungen oder thematischen Berührungen zu erarbeiten, die entweder für die beiden Corpora als ganze oder für spezifische Teile beider charakteristisch sind, um daraus entsprechende Schlussfolgerungen zu ziehen. Das Ergebnis ist ein Überblick zur Vielfalt der semantischen, intertextuellen, literarischen, redaktionellen, historischen und theologischen Aspekte der Beziehungen zwischen dem Jesajabuch und dem Zwölfprophetenbuch, die einlinigen Lösungsvorschlägen zur Erklärung des Zustandekommens dieser Bezüge widerstreiten

    Abstract: Scholars of the Hebrew Bible used to look at "Prophecy" and "Wisdom" as clearly distinct realms represented by antagonistic and mutually exclusive roles of their central characters: the loyal sage, the pillar of administration, on the one side and the rebellious prophet, criticizing the establishment, on the other. While the influence of wisdom thought on prophetic texts has been a topic in the scholarly debate, the complementary question of the influence of prophetic thought on wisdom texts has rarely been asked. The contributions in this volume look at both questions: They start from the assumption that texts from the Hebrew Bible and the cultures surrounding Ancient Israel all originated from a social stratum of educated scribes, who authored and transmitted these texts. It then seems plausible that wisdom texts might show similar traces of prophetic influence to those of wisdom thoughts found in prophetic texts. The essays give a multifaceted picture concerning the mutual perception of prophets and sages and thus provide a deeper understanding of both wisdom literature and prophecy

    Abstract: The essays in this Festschrift honor James L. Kugel for his contribution to the field of biblical studies, in particular early biblical interpretation. The essays are organized in three roughly chronological categories. The first group treats some part of the Tanakh, ranging from the creation and Abraham stories of Genesis to the evolving conception of sacred writing in the prophetic literature. The second set of essays focuses chiefly on the literature of Second Temple Judaism, including Qumran and extra-biblical literature. The last group concerns the scriptural imagination at work in rabbinic literature, in Milton's Paradise Lost, in the anti-semitic work of Gerhard Kittel, up to the present in a treatment of Levinas and the Talmud

    Parallel Title: Erscheint auch als God, Self, and Death : The Shape of Religious Transformation in the Second Temple Period
    Keywords: Bible Criticism, interpretation, etc ; Judaism History Post-exilic period, 586 BC-210 AD ; Death in literature ; God in literature ; Judaism History Post-exilic period, 586 B.C.-210 A.D ; Self in literature
    Abstract: This volume considers the emerging Jewish interest in an afterlife during the second temple period in relation to developing views of the deity and the self. In some circles God is understood as increasingly distant from the human sphere, and so justice must occur in another world or after death; at the same time, more autonomous constructions of the self in response to community breakdown suggest that reward and punishment come not only collectively, but also on the individual level in a post-mortem realm. The book traces the interconnections between these themes in Job and Ecclesiastes, Ben Sira and Daniel, then Wisdom of Solomon and 4 Ezra, crossing genre boundaries in an attempt to offer a more encompassing historical investigation

    Abstract: During the reign of Cyrus the Great, founder of the Achaemenid Empire, the Jews returned to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple. This Second Temple period is characterised by a changing mode of thinking. This volume traces the development of the concept of the covenant during this important era, by discussing relevant texts among the Apocrypha, such as Wisdom of Solomon; the Pseudepigrapha, especially the Dead Sea Scrolls and Jubilees; and the New Testament, such as the Pauline Letters. The authors deal with interesting concepts related to the idea of the covenant, such as law, wisdom, election, grace, the kingdom of God and even the role of food. This is an important piece of work for understanding the notion of the covenant in Judaism and Christianity, useful for theologians and historians, as well as students of the respective disciplines

    Keywords: Bible Criticism, interpretation, etc ; Jewish religious literature History and criticism ; Middle Eastern literature History and criticism ; Rabbinical literature History and criticism ; Theodicy History of doctrines
    Abstract: Is it justice when deities allow righteous human beings to suffer? This question has occupied the minds of theologians and philosophers for many centuries and is still hotly disputed. All kinds of argument have been developed to exonerate the 'good God' of any guilt in this respect. Since Leibniz it has become customary to describe such attempts as 'theodicy', the justification of God. In modern philosophical debate this use of 'theodicy' has been questioned. However, this volume shows that it is still a workable term for a concept that originated much earlier than is commonly realised. Experts from many disciplines follow the emergence of the theodicy problem from ancient Near Eastern texts of the second millennium BCE through biblical literature, from both Old and New Testament, intertestamental writings including Qumran, Philo Judaeus and rabbinic Judaism

    Parallel Title: Erscheint auch als The Crisis of Israelite Religion : Transformation of Religious Tradition in Exilic and Post-Exilic Times
    Keywords: Bible Criticism, interpretation, etc ; Judaism History Post-exilic period, 586 BC-210 AD ; Transformacy ; Judaism History Post-exilic period, 586 B.C.-210 A.D
    Abstract: Exile and Return have caused a crisis in Israelite religion. This crisis eventually gave the impetus for the emergence of Judaism. The papers in this volume, originally read at a Symposium organized by Utrecht University in April 1998, discuss the relevant aspects of this crisis and the shift from Yahwism to Judaism. The collection of papers is unique in presenting a multidimensional treatment of the problems involved. Biblical texts are read against their historical background with the question in mind: How did the author(s) of this text cope with the changed and shifting situation? Next to that the period under consideration is discussed from historical, religion-historical, archaeological and iconographic angles. The volume underscores the significance of this period for Biblical studies and will certainly yield further discussion

    Abstract: This collection of studies is published in honor of Professor James A. Sanders, a leading scholar in the fields of the canon of Scripture, textual criticism, and the relationship of the two Testaments. Contributors include leading scholars in these and related fields of study. The studies investigate in what ways the early sacred tradition was interpreted and how this tradition takes new shape in the Jewish and Christian communities of faith. Included are studies of Jesus' understanding of Scripture, Paul's interpretation of Scripture, and the ways in which Scripture was interpreted by the Rabbis. In many instances novel interpretations and new approaches to old problems are offered. Advanced students and veteran scholars will enjoy the many insights and provocative new ideas

    Parallel Title: Erscheint auch als Cosmology and Eschatology in Jewish and Christian Apocalypticism
    Keywords: Bible Criticism, interpretation, etc ; Apocalyptic literature History and criticism ; Eschatology History of doctrines Early church, ca. 30-600 ; Eschatology, Jewish ; Jewish cosmology ; Son of Man History of doctrines Early church, ca.30-600 ; Symbolism of numbers
    Abstract: This volume deals with Jewish and Christian apocalyptic texts and movements from the second century BCE through the fourth century CE. It focuses on two major themes, cosmology and eschatology; that is, views of structure of the universe including its religious function and interpretations of history and the future. The detailed historical and literary analysis of these themes are introduced by an essay on the cultural gap between the original contexts of these texts and those of readers today and how that gap may be bridged. The book deals with the interrelations between post-biblical Judaism and early Christianity. The relevant Jewish texts and history are discussed thoroughly in their own right. The Christian material is approached in a way which shows both its continuity with Jewish tradition and its distinctiveness
