Leuchter M: An Empire Far and Wide

An Empire Far and Wide

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

The Library of Second Temple Studies

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.

Studia Judaica

Studia Samaritana

The volume collects eighteen studies authored by specialists of various fields. The contributions gathered in this volume mostly originate in lectures delivered at the 8th Congress of the Société d’Etudes Samaritaines (Erfurt, 2012). In these studies, specialists of various fields deal with various aspects of Samaritan languages, especially Samaritan Hebrew and Samaritan Aramaic, with central Samaritan texts, mostly the Samaritan Hebrew Pentateuch, the Samaritan Aramaic Targum, as well as medieval Samaritan exegetical texts in Arabic, and also with traditions relating to the image of the Samaritans, as emerging from the New Testament and Rabbinic literature, to Samaritan theology and to Samaritan genealogy, and with magical traditions as found in Samaritan amulets, and with the contribution of Samaritan traditions to the literary history of the Pentateuch. The volume provides thus a multifarious reflection of the current status quaestionis in Samaritan studies.

The Library of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament Studies

This book argues that a synchronic analysis of particular episodes in the Book of Genesis uncovers a series of binary oppositions that characterise the narrative world of Mamre and Sodom.

Narrative Paths Through Mamre and Sodom

This volume of essays is focused on the significance of the book of Exodus for studies in the Septuagint, Second Temple Jewish literature, the New Testament, and Christian theology. A diverse group of scholars from various parts of the world, many of whom are well-known in their fields, employs a range of methodologies in the treatment of text-critical, linguistic, literary, historical, cultural, exegetical, intertextual, and theological topics. Parts of the relevant literary corpus that are dealt with in relation to the book of Exodus include Genesis, Leviticus, Deuteronomy, Psalms, Zechariah, 3 Maccabees, the Gospels of Matthew and Mark, the Epistles of 1 Thessalonians, Hebrews, and 1 Peter, as well as the Dead Sea Scrolls. This book will be a valuable resource for scholars and students in the areas of biblical and theological studies, as well as clergy.

The distinguished contributors include Emanuel Tov, Albert Pietersma, Daniela Scialabba, Craig A. Evans, James M. Scott, Martin G. Abegg Jr., and Wolfgang Kraus.

Themes and Texts, Exodus and Beyond

Michael H. Floyd explores how the woe-speeches in Habakkuk 2:6-20 are related in form and content to the message revealed to the prophet in Hab 2:1-5, defending his reading through spirited debate with other scholars who have similarly proposed a fresh take on various exegetical puzzles of Chapter 2.

After assessing the preceding material in Habakkuk 2 as the necessary prelude to analyzing the woe-speeches themselves, Floyd explores the form and function of the woe-speeches themselves, in light of how they fit into the unfolding composition of the oracular report that makes up Habakkuk 2. He further brings together and systematizes previous observations about the rhetoric of reproof, arguing that the woe-speeches themselves represent a different type of reproof speech, one that also draws upon wisdom traditions but uses them in a way that is more accusatory and self-incriminating than persuasive and correctional. He proposes that, although the outcry of the nations in Habakkuk 2 is obviously a fictional representation of the international situation, it nevertheless expresses a realpolitik critique of ancient Near Eastern imperialism. Floyd concludes that as an integral part of Habakkuk's oracular inquiry, the woe-speeches provide a basis for a critique of the idolatrous ideology of imperialism and a model of how to live hopefully despite being under an imperialistic thumb.

"A fascinating study bursting with insights into the diversity of ideas about demons and religious difference across antiquity. Sara Ronis demonstrates that rabbis constructed themselves as powerful and important masters of the demonic denizens of their world in ways that affirmed rabbinic power, authority, and creativity. By treating the rabbis as members of a scholastic elite, in conversation with other religious and philosophical communities in Sasanian Babylonia,&nbsp;Demons in the Details&nbsp;is at the cutting edge of contemporary rabbinic scholarship. It uses the lens of demonology to illuminate the writings of the sages and concomitantly the wider ancient Mediterranean world."—Kimberly B. Stratton, author of&nbsp;Naming the Witch: Magic, Ideology, and Stereotype in the Ancient World "Sara Ronis's determination to take seriously the diversity of cultural contexts that are necessary for understanding Babylonian rabbinic literature is salutary, and her study is superior to many earlier, more one-sided attempts."—Richard Kalmin, Theodore R. Racoosin Professor of Talmud and Rabbinics, The Jewish Theological Seminary "This is a well-researched and much-needed project that contributes tremendously to our understanding of rabbinic culture and how it fits into its surrounding and preceding cultures. In it, Sara Ronis compares demons in the Babylonian Talmud to their near and distant relatives throughout Mesopotamia and the Mediterranean. If you thought all demons were alike or all societies related to demons in the same way, this book will be an eye-opener."—David Brodsky, Chair, Department of Judaic Studies, Brooklyn College, CUNY
