H.G.M. Williamson, «Do We Need A New Bible? Reflections on the Proposed Oxford Hebrew Bible»

BSW: Biblica 2009 (vol.90) p.153-175: H.G.M. Williamson, «Do We Need A New Bible? Reflections on the Proposed Oxford Hebrew Bible»: The launch of the Oxford Hebrew Bible has recently been formally announced and examples of its work published. Unlike nearly all current scholarly editions of the Hebrew Bible, it aims to provide an eclectic rather than a diplomatic text. There are many aspects of the underlying reasons for this which should be approved. Nevertheless, as a project it has certain inherent weaknesses. It completely overlooks the different linguistic levels which are amalgamated in the Masoretic Text, so that its policy of maintaining the current spelling and vocalization are misguided. It also fails in its stated objective of providing a textual archetype in those cases where different editions of the text may be thought to have circulated in antiquity. And many of the most crucial decisions at the text-critical level are not included in the apparatus at all but in the commentary; indeed, in view of the unique textual nature of the MT as well as the variety of scholarly opinion about its textual history it is commentary rather than a new edition which would best serve the needs of the prospective readership.

The Persian Period and the Origins of Israel: Beyond the "Myths"

The Bible and Interpretation: The Persian Period and the Origins of Israel: Beyond the "Myths". By Efraín Velázquez II Universidad Adventista de las Antillas, Puerto Rico, July 2009. Abstract: The issues of settlement and the origin of Israel are commonly associated with the Late Bronze and Iron Ages. These periods have been considered the loci of the early biblical materials. However, more recently, these assumptions about the origin of the biblical texts and even the factuality of the events presented in them have been questioned. The discussion of the origins of Israel is now focused on the Persian period. Whereas this newer emphasis is somewhat strained and tends to repeat some of the unfortunate mistakes made by earlier interpreters, the debate over Israel in the Persian period nevertheless illuminates the discussion of Israel’s origin in earlier periods.

La ordenanza divina de construir un santuario

Aurora Digital (28/02/2009): La ordenanza divina de construir un santuario: Dr. Adolfo Roitman - En textos judíos de la época greco-romana encontramos detalles más precisos sobre este templo celestial, de acuerdo a los cuales los ángeles servían en él como sacerdotes. Como lo testimonia el Testamento de Leví: “En el siguiente cielo se hallan los ángeles de la presencia del Señor, sus servidores, que interceden ante el Señor por todos los pecados de los justos cometidos inadvertidamente. Ofrecen al Señor un sacrificio de suave olor, una ofrenda razonable y sin sangre''. >>> Leia mais, clique aqui.

Santas ou sedutoras? Mães de heróis na Bíblia Hebraica contrastes entre a mulher nas sagas em Gênesis e nos textos dos pensadores patrísticos

Eliezer Serra Braga

O presente trabalho é o início de uma pesquisa mais extensa, cuja finalidade é destacar e analisar, através de abordagem sócio-literária, a caracterização que os autores bíblicos fazem de três mulheres, ou grupos de mulheres, apresentadas em narrativas da Bíblia Hebraica. Em seguida iremos contrastar as conclusões dessa análise com as exigências feitas sobre a mulher no cristianismo primitivo, especificamente no período da história designado como Patrística. >>> Leia mais, clique aqui.
