Abstract

Over 5,000 copies of the New Testament exist today and not one matches the other exactly. Determining how a copyist made changes to a manuscript - or, a scribe's habits - is an essential step in recovering the original text of the New Testament and for appreciating how it has changed over time. For the vast majority of manuscripts, there is no way to know which manuscript copied from which manuscript or, which manuscript is the child manuscript and which is the parent manuscript. Alan Taylor Farnes, however, has discovered twenty-two child manuscripts whose parent version is still known today. His letter-by-letter examination of four of these manuscripts sheds invaluable light on how scribes went about their work and provides a methodology for future studies. Now we can virtually look over the scribe's shoulder and watch the work as it unfolds. --

Abstract

Does God call women to serve as equal partners in marriage and as leaders in the church? The answer to this straightforward question is deeply contested. Into the fray, Lucy Peppiatt offers her work on interpretation of the Bible and Christian practice. With careful exegetical work, Peppiatt considers relevant passages in Ephesians, Colossians, 1 Peter, 1 Timothy, and 1 Corinthians. There she finds a story of God releasing women alongside men into all forms of ministry, leadership, work, and service on the basis of character and gifting, rather than biological sex. Those who see the overturning of male-dominated hierarchy in the Scriptures, she argues, are truly rediscovering an ancient message--a message distorted by those who assumed that a patriarchal world, which they sometimes saw reflected in the Bible, was the one God had ordained.

Abstract

This volume fundamentally re-examines textual approaches to the New Testament and its manuscripts in the age of digital editing and media. Using the eccentric work of Herman Charles Hoskier as a shared foundation for analysis, contributors examine the intellectual history of New Testament textual scholarship and the production of critical editions, identify many avenues for further research, and discuss the methods and protocols for producing the most recent set of editions of the New Testament: the Editio Critica Maior . Instead of comprising the minute refinement of a basically acceptable text, textual scholarship on the New Testament is a vibrant field that impinges upon New Testament Studies in unexpected and unacknowledged ways. --

Abstract

Das „Studienbuch Gebet“ bietet einen Überblick über das Spektrum jüdischen Betens im Umfeld der Schriften des Alten und Neuen Testaments. Sowohl repräsentative Gebete als auch Unikate werden in den Blick genommen. Als Kompendium antiker jüdischer Gebete versteht sich das Studienbuch als „Auswahl-Bibliothek“ der beiden vor- und nachchristlichen Jahrhunderte. Eine möglichst wörtlich gehaltene und parallel zum Original präsentierte Übersetzung (samt einer kurzen Einführung) soll es den Benutzenden ermöglichen, die Texte nachzuvollziehen und ein Gefühl für Gemeinsamkeiten und Besonderheiten antiken jüdischen Gebetslebens zu entwickeln. Wenn das Beten für Feinde bis heute als neutestamentliches Spezifikum verstanden wird, dann liegt das auch daran, dass bestimmte Gebetstexte nicht diskutiert werden. Einige Gebete sind hier erstmals ins Deutsche übertragen. Im Gebet spiegeln sich das Gottesbild wie das Selbstbild der Betenden. Die Gebetssammlung erweist sich als ein Panoptikum antiker jüdischer Theologien und Anthropologien. Christliches Beten und christliche Theologie sind nicht zuletzt vor diesem Hintergrund (besser) zu verstehen.

Abstract

Narratives are the concrete manifestation of an author’s subjectivity. They function as that person’s voice, and should be treated with the same respect that is granted to all voices. In Interpreting New Testament Narratives, Eric Douglass develops this ethical perspective, so that narratives are treated as communication, and the author’s voice is regarded as a valued perspective. Employing a cross-disciplinary approach, Douglass shows how readers engage narratives as mental simulations, creating a temporary possible world that readers enter and experience. To recover communication, readers locate the events of this world in the culture of the intended audience, and translate this meaning into the modern reader’s worldview. Using a staged reading design, this initial reading is followed by readings of critique.

Abstract

Publisher's description: In this work, Arie W. Zwiep examines the gospel stories of the raising of Jairus's daughter and the healing of the haemorrhaging woman (Mark 5:21-43; Matt 9:18-26; Luke 8:40-56) from a plurality of (sometimes conflicting) interpretive strategies to demonstrate the need and fruitfulness of a multi-perspectival exegetical approach. Among the various (diachronic and synchronic) methods that are being applied in this study are philological criticism, form criticism and structural analysis, tradition- and redaction criticism, orality studies and performance criticism, narrative analysis, textual criticism and the study of intertextuality. Such a comprehensive approach, it is argued, leads to an increased knowledge and a deepened understanding of the ancient texts in question and to a sharpened awareness of the applicability of current scholarly research instruments to unlock documents from the past.

Abstract

"In frühjüdischer und urchristlicher Literatur treten in vielfältiger Art und Weise Widersacher auf. Mithin hat sich die Entstehung einiger dieser Texte der Auseinandersetzung mit Gegnern erst zu verdanken. Inwiefern wurden solche gegnerische Gruppen oder Gestalten von den Autoren explizit oder implizit als Irrlehrer, Abtrünnige oder Kontrahenten wahrgenommen? Wo verliefen die Konfliktlinien innerhalb oder außerhalb der jeweiligen sozialen, kulturellen oder religiösen Gemeinschaft? Wie gestalteten sich die apologetisch motivierte Darstellung der Antagonisten und die gegen sie gerichtete Argumentation? Diesen Fragen geht der vorliegende Band aus alt- und neutestamentlicher sowie kirchengeschichtlicher Perspektive nach. Ein Großteil der Beiträge wurde im Rahmen eines internationalen Symposiums zum Thema »Gegenspieler« im Oktober 2015 in Tübingen vorgetragen. Weitere thematisch relevante Studien ergänzen den Band." --

Abstract

The second century CE has often been described as a kind of dark period with regard to our knowledge of how the earliest Christian writings (the gospels and Paul's letters) were transmitted and gradually came to be accepted as authoritative and then, later on, as "canonical". At the same time a number of other Christian texts, of various genres, saw the light. Some of these seem to be familiar with the gospels, or perhaps rather with gospel traditions identical or similar to those that found their way into the NT gospels. The volume focuses on representative texts and authors of the time in order to see how they have struggled to find a way to work with the NT gospels and/or the traditions behind these, while at the same time giving a place also to other extra-canonical traditions.It studies in a comparative way the reception of identifiably "canonical" and of extra-canonical traditions in the second century. It aims at discovering patterns or strategies of reception within the at first sight often rather chaotic way some of these ancient authors have cited or used these traditions. And it will look for explanations of why it took such a while before authors got used to cite gospel texts (more or less) accurately.

Abstract

The death of Jesus is commonly regarded as the one radically novel perspective from which the problem of suffering is viewed in the New Testament, as opposed to the appropriation of viewpoints present elsewhere in contemporary writings and in the Old Testament. Tom Holmén's focus on the death of Jesus as a source of New Testament theodicy reveals a two-fold reasoning: the lasting relevance of the theme of Jesus' death on the cross and theodicy, and the lack of thorough and sustained New Testament investigations into this theme.
