This collection of essays examines how stories from the biblical narrative of Israel in the Wilderness (Exodus 16-Deuteronomy 34) were interpreted by later Jewish and Christian writers (ca. 400 BCE-500 CE).

Stories such as those about manna and water from a rock, the Golden Calf incident, Korah’s rebellion, and the death of Moses provided later Jewish and Christian writers with a treasure trove of material for reflection and interpretation. Whereas individual essays investigate how particular literary works, such as Ben Sira, Qumran documents, New Testament writings, the Apostolic Fathers, and Targums, appropriated the biblical text, taken together the essays form an exercise in uncovering the hermeneutical imagination of interpreters during formative periods of Jewish and Christian thought.

This volume will be valuable to those interested in ancient Judaism and early Christianity, the history of interpretation of the Hebrew Bible, and the hermeneutical appropriation of sacred texts.

About the author(s)

Kenneth E. Pomykala received his Ph.D. (1992) from The Claremont Graduate School, Claremont, CA, and is Professor of Religion, Calvin College. His work on the interpretation of the Hebrew Bible in early Judaism and Christianity includes The Davidic Dynasty Tradition in Early Judaism (SBLEJL; Atlanta: Scholars Press, 1995) and “Images of David in Early Judaism” in Of Scribes and Sages: Early Jewish Interpretation and Transmission of Scripture Vol. 1 (Ed. C. A. Evans; London/New York: T & T Clark, 2004).

This volume contains 15 contributions presented at a symposium on the Hebrew of the Dead Sea Scrolls & Ben Sira, held in Strasbourg on May 29 and 30, 2006. The papers address linguistic and philological issues. They seek to relate the Hebrew texts of the Hellenistic period to earlier and later traditions. Among the authors are some of the most eminent Hebraists of our period as well as some younger scholars. The papers throw new light on the interpretation of the Qumran Scrolls, of the Apocrypha and of the Hebrew Bible.

Contemporary scholars have sharply disagreed over the importance of the loquacious women of Liber Antiquitatum Biblicarum. Using the methods of contemporary Cognitive Linguistics, Ideology and Metaphor develops a systematic, replicable reading of the text and its characters, showing how Pseudo-Philo uses these women’s stories to articulate the text’s theology and ideology. The analysis also explores how the author redefines the term «mother» in order to sanction the female authority to interpret and instruct. The conceptual blends that compose the text’s distinctive and sometimes dissonant metaphors are analyzed in detail. This monograph also explores how a re-written Bible establishes its authority and awards authority to specific characters and how rhetorical and narrative methodologies fit within cognitive linguistics

Um die Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts kam es in der Geschichte der biblischen Exegese zu einem Traditionsbruch, der einschneidender war als alle früheren Zäsuren. Daraus ging die sogenannte historisch-kritische Methode hervor. Marius Reiser geht der Frage nach, wie und warum es zu diesem Traditionsbruch kam und ob er wirklich irreparabel ist.

Schwerpunkt der Beiträge ist die Geschichte der Bibelwissenschaft in Frankreich, Deutschland und England vom 16.-19. Jahrhundert. Aber auch die Väterzeit und das Mittelalter werden berücksichtigt. Einzelne Studien (z.B. zu Gen 22; Jes 7,14; Jes 53; Mk 11,12-14) erfassen die gesamte Auslegungsgeschichte. Alle wichtigen Fragen der Hermeneutik kommen zur Sprache. Dabei soll auch das gemeinsame katholisch-protestantische Erbe deutlich werden.

Die mit der Aufklärung in Verruf geratene Methode der Allegorese wird gründlich behandelt und als symbolische Auslegungsweise verstanden, die von bleibendem Wert und erneuerbar ist. Bibelkritik und theologisch-symbolische Auslegung der Heiligen Schrift müssen keine Kontrahenten sein.

Unter den Exegeten, die eingehender behandelt werden, sind der Jesuit Benito Perera (1535-1610), Richard Simon (1638-1712), J.L. Isenbiehl (1744-1818) und F. von Hummelauer (1842-1914). Marius Reiser zeigt, daß die historisch-kritische Exegese keine Frucht der Hermeneutik und Exegese der Reformatoren ist, sondern vielmehr aus der Verbindung von humanistischer “Kritik” mit Prämissen der Aufklärung hervorgeht.

Women have been thoughtful readers and interpreters of scripture throughout the ages, yet the standard history of biblical interpretation includes few women’s voices. To introduce readers to this untapped source for the history of biblical interpretation, this volume analyzes forgotten works from the nineteenth century written by women—including Christina Rossetti, Florence Nightingale, and Harriet Beecher Stowe, among others—from various faith backgrounds, countries, and social classes engaging contemporary biblical scholarship.

Interpreting the Bible
A Handbook of Terms and Methods
W. Randolph Tate
Retail Price: $29.95
HP Item Number: 35159
ISBN: 1565635159
From A minore ad majus to Zion, and from source criticism to deconstruction, this extended glossary clarifies approximately 50 methods of biblical interpretation along with the terminology they employ. No mere catalog of definitions, it clarifies the fundamental role of methodology in the interpretive process while giving readers an accessible resource for understanding the complex vocabulary that accompanies serious biblical studies.
• Provides an extensive catalog of terminology currently associated with reading the Bible as literature
• Clarifies the various methods Bible scholars use to study biblical texts, highlighting the important role that such methodologies play in the interpretive process
• Illuminates how different interpretive approaches can make a contribution to our understanding of the biblical texts
• Written with the non-specialist in mindNothing presently on the market is as comprehensive as Tate’s work. Though a handful of textbooks and handbooks serve specific niches, they are usually limited in scope to the New Testament, the Old Testament, or to narrower areas of study. This accessible resource offers ready access to the full spectrum of interpretive method. Now readers no longer need to sift through a complex assortment of books and journals to grasp the terminologies and methodologies so essential for the serious biblical interpreter.
• Students and pastors
• Scholars familiar with some interpretive methods but who need to explore others

The Bible and Contemporary Culture
by Gerd Theissen (Author)

Fortress 2006 

Why read the Bible? Gerd Theissen uses the wisdom gained from decades of teaching Bible instruction at a state university to address questions of the Bible’s relevance in a postmodern, pluralistic society. He describes the core themes and enduring value of the biblical legacy for anyone seeking to be a well-informed, self-aware, and responsible citizen, and he commends the contributions the Bible can make to interreligious and secular conversation.
