  • Priesthood, Cult, and Temple in the Aramaic Scrolls from Qumran
    PRIESTHOOD, CULT, AND TEMPLE IN THE ARAMAIC SCROLLS PRIESTHOOD, CULT, AND TEMPLE IN THE ARAMAIC SCROLLS FROM QUMRAN By ROBERT E. JONES III, B.A., M.Div. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Robert E. Jones III, June 2020 McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2020) Hamilton, Ontario (Religious Studies) TITLE: Priesthood, Cult, and Temple in the Aramaic Scrolls from Qumran AUTHOR: Robert E. Jones III, B.A. (Eastern University), M.Div. (Pittsburgh Theological Seminary) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Daniel A. Machiela NUMBER OF PAGES: xiv + 321 ii ABSTRACT My dissertation analyzes the passages related to the priesthood, cult, and temple in the Aramaic Scrolls from Qumran. The Aramaic Scrolls comprise roughly 15% of the manuscripts found in the Qumran caves, and testify to the presence of a flourishing Jewish Aramaic literary tradition dating to the early Hellenistic period (ca. late fourth to early second century BCE). Scholarship since the mid-2000s has increasingly understood these writings as a corpus of related literature on both literary and socio-historical grounds, and has emphasized their shared features, genres, and theological outlook. Roughly half of the Aramaic Scrolls display a strong interest in Israel’s priestly institutions: the priesthood, cult, and temple. That many of these compositions display such an interest has not gone unnoticed. To date, however, few scholars have analyzed the priestly passages in any given composition in light of the broader corpus, and no scholars have undertaken a comprehensive treatment of the priestly passages in the Aramaic Scrolls.

  • Fisher, Memories of The
    Memories of the Ark: Texts, Objects, and the Construction of the Biblical Past By Daniel Shalom Fisher A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Ronald Hendel, Chair Professor Robert Alter Professor Benjamin Porter Professor Daniel Boyarin Professor Ann Swidler Summer 2018 Copyright © 2018 by Daniel Shalom Fisher, All Rights Reserved. 1 Abstract Memories of the Ark: Texts, Objects, and the Construction of the Biblical Past by Daniel Shalom Fisher Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Ronald Hendel, Chair This dissertation constructs a cultural biography of the Ark of the Covenant, exploring through it the close, but often complicated, relationships that have existed between objects and collective memory in Biblical and ancient Jewish societies. The project considers the different ways in which Biblical writers and interpreters have remembered the Ark as a “real thing,” forming it, mobilizing it, and making meaning with it—largely in its absence after its likely loss in the 6th century BCE. From Exodus to Chronicles and in works of biblical interpretation through the Mishnah, this project explores how these writers reimagine the Ark to craft visions for their people’s future through their people’s past. The project is structured around five interrelated case studies from the Ark’s mnemohistory, considering different dimensions of cultural memory’s entanglement in material culture. Each case study draws upon and enriches text-, source-, and redaction-critical approaches, investigating the growth and reshaping of biblical writings as creative memory work.

  • The Problem of the Genealogy of Jesus
    THE PROBLEM OF THE GENEALOGY OF JESUS Prof. M.M.Ninan 5708 Rudy Dr. San Jose, CA 95124 1985 THE PROBLEM OF THE GENEALOGY OF J ES U S Prof. M.M.Ninan CHAPTER ONE THE TWO GENEALOGIES CHAPTER TWO MATTHEW'S GENEALOGY CHAPTER THREE LUKE'S GENEALOGY CHAPTER FOUR WOMEN IN MATTHEW CHART OF THE GENEALOGY OF JESUS FROM ADAM TO JESUS PREFACE This article was written in response to an Islamic onslaught on the validity and accuracy of the Bible quoting the problem of genealogy as an error. This was in 1985 while I was in the University of Juba, Sudan, Africa. The problem is dealt with in this article to show that the Bible is the inspired word of God. In spite of its transmission through the ages through generations to generations and in their varying media and translations it still is the most reliable document mankind has ever possessed. Its accuracy speaks for its divine origins. This article was first published as a booklet by the Sudan Theological College, Juba, Sudan, Africa in 1985. It was widely distributed in the Southern Sudan and neighboring countries. ------------------------------------------------------------- Prof. M.M.Ninan is a Professor of Physics and have served in colleges and universities in India, Ethiopia, Ghana, Sudan, Jamaica, Yemen and United States of America. In all these countries he has been involved in church planting, missions and Christian Education as a Tent Maker. THE PROBLEM OF THE GENEALOGY OF JESUS CHAPTER ONE THE TWO GENEALOGIES People are often misled by a cursory look on the two widely, different genealogies of Jesus in the books of Matthew (1:1-11) and of Luke (3:23-38).
