Leuchter M: An Empire Far and Wide

An Empire Far and Wide

The Achaemenid Dynastic Myth and Jewish Scribes in the Late Persian Period

DNI Bible Supplements

The present volume searches for different biblical perceptions of the wild, paying particular attention to the significance of fluid boundaries between the domestic and the wild, and to the options of crossing borders between them. Drawing on space, fauna, and flora, scholars investigate the ways biblical authors present the wild and the domestic and their interactions. In its six chapters and two responses, Hebrew Bible scholars, an archaeobotanist, an archaeologist, a geographer, and iconographers join forces to discuss the wild and its portrayals in biblical literature.The discussions bring to light the entire spectrum of real, imagined, metaphorized, and conceptualized forms of the wild that appear in biblical sources, as also in the material culture and agriculture of ancient Israel, and to some extent observe the great gap between biblical observations and modern studies of geography and of mapping that marks the distinctions between "the wilderness" and "the sown." The book is the first written product presented on two consecutive years (2019, 2020) at the SBL Annual Meetings in the Section: "Nature Imagery and Conceptions of Nature in the Bible."

A groundbreaking reinterpretation of early Judaism, during the millennium before the study of the Bible took center stageEarly Judaism is often described as the religion of the book par excellence-a movement built around the study of the Bible and steeped in a culture of sacred bookishness that evolved from an unrelenting focus on a canonical text. But in The Closed Book, Rebecca Scharbach Wollenberg argues that Jews didn't truly embrace the biblical text until nearly a thousand years after the Bible was first canonized. She tells the story of the intervening centuries during which even rabbis seldom opened a Bible and many rabbinic authorities remained deeply ambivalent about the biblical text as a source of sacred knowledge. Wollenberg shows that, in place of the biblical text, early Jewish thinkers embraced a form of biblical revelation that has now largely disappeared from practice. Somewhere between the fixed transcripts of the biblical Written Torah and the fluid traditions of the rabbinic Oral Torah, a third category of revelation was imagined by these rabbinic thinkers. In this "third Torah," memorized spoken formulas of the biblical tradition came to be envisioned as a distinct version of the biblical revelation. And it was believed that this living tradition of recitation passed down by human mouths, unbound by the limitations of written text, provided a fuller and more authentic witness to the scriptural revelation at Sinai. In this way, early rabbinic authorities were able to leverage the idea of biblical revelation while quarantining the biblical text itself from communal life. The result is a revealing reinterpretation of "the people of the book" before they became people of the book.

How the Rabbis Taught the Jews (Not) to Read the Bible

The Closed Book

Entrepreneur and transformative coach Marni Battista offers a unique blend of spiritual wisdom and practical exercises designed to redefine success and reignite the passion in your life. Rooted in neuroscience, somatics, and a whole-self approach to transformation, Battista lays out seven spiritual questions that will help you to build a more meaningful life. "Did you seek wisdom?" "Were you, you?" "Were you radically honest with yourself?" "Did you busy yourself with creation?" "Did you make time for your spiritual life?" "Were you hopeful?" "Did you recognize the blessing?" Each spiritual question is brought to life by a personal story from Marni's own Radical Living Challenge. Workbook-style exercises are woven throughout each section, crafted to help you overcome fears and resistance, define success on your terms, and design your own style of radical living. Within each section, Battista examines the truths and fictions we tell ourselves and others as we teeter on the tightrope between love and freedom, meaning and mortality, guilt and redemption, terror and courage, hope and change.

Entrepreneur and transformative coach Marni Battista offers a unique blend of spiritual wisdom and practical exercises designed to redefine success and reignite the passion in your life. Rooted in neuroscience, somatics, and a whole-self approach to transformation, Your Radical Living Challenge employs seven prescriptive lessons based on the seven spiritual questions ancient rabbis imagine being asked at the gates of heaven to determine whether one has lived a meaningful life. “Did you seek wisdom?” “Were you hopeful?” “Were you true to your most authentic and essential self?” “Did you make time for your spiritual life?” “Did you busy yourself with creation?” “Did you recognize the blessings?” “Were you YOU?” Each spiritual question posed in the narrative is illustrated by a personal Radical Living Challenge story–the author’s or a client’s. Prescriptive workbook style exercises are woven throughout each section, helping readers to ask questions crafted to overcome fears and resistance, define success on their terms, and design their own year of radical living. Inside each section Battista examines the truths and fictions we tell ourselves and others as we teeter on the tightrope between love and freedom, meaning and mortality, guilt and redemption, terror and courage, hope and change.

7 Questions for Leading a Meaningful Life

Your Radical Living Challenge

The turbulent Second Temple period produced searching biblical texts whose protagonists, unlike heroes like Noah, Abraham, and Moses, were more everyday figures who expressed their moral uncertainties more vocally. Reflecting on&nbsp;a new type of Jewish moral agent, these tales depict men who are feminized, and women who are masculinized.&nbsp;&nbsp;In this volume, Lawrence M. Wills offers a deep interrogation of these stories, uncovering the&nbsp;psychological aspects of Jewish identity, moral life, and decisions that they explore. Often written as novellas, the stories investigate emotions,&nbsp;psychological interiorizing, the self, agency, and character. Recent insights from gender and postcolonial theory inform Wills' study, as he shows how one can study and compare modern and ancient gender constructs. Wills also reconstructs the social fabric of the Second Temple period and demonstrates how a focus on emotions, the self, and moral psychology, often associated with both ancient Greek and modern literature, are present in biblical texts, albeit in a subtle, unassuming manner.

This book presents the first comprehensive comparison of how moral agency is constructed in Sirach, 4QInstruction, and the Hodayot.

This book presents the first comprehensive comparison of how moral agency is constructed in Sirach, 4QInstruction, and the Hodayot. World Kim argues that recent scholastic studies have overemphasized differences amongst various Second Temple texts and neglected the similarities between them. By employing four stages of comparison—description, juxtaposition, re-description, and rectification— Kim re-describes moral agency in Sirach, 4QInstruction, and the Hodayot, and aims to rectify the relationship between these texts. 

Kim demonstrates that moral agency cannot be described by categories such as affirmation or denial, and argues that such agency should instead be described in terms of degrees and shaped by various factors such as knowledge and desire, that will either decrease or increase moral agency. Through an extensive comparison of these texts, Kim concludes that the degree to which one internalizes and actualizes the teachings of their religious text increases one’s capacity for moral agency, and that this agency must be conceived as dynamic rather than static.

Experts from the field of biblical studies shed light on the many ways in which the Psalter psalms have been used through the ages. The focus across the volume is on the role that these psalms play in scribal, liturgical, didactic, iconographic, and literary contexts. The book is structured in four parts, covering different styles/uses of the Psalms. In part I (song) the focus in on psalms as songs, and how their uses in different performative settings have generated new interpretations. In part II (prayer) the focus is on the liturgical uses of psalms, not only how they can be used as prayers in various communities of faith but also on how they may not be used. In part III (scripture: interpretation) the focus in on the reception of several individual psalms in Jewish, Christian, and Muslim traditions. Finally, in part IV (scripture: manuscripts) the focus is on scribal activity: transmission, translation, and illumination.
