A New English Translation of the Septuagint. 15 1 Esdras
15-1Es-NETS-4.qxd 11/10/2009 10:26 PM Page 392 1 ESDRAS TO THE READER EDITION OF THE GREEK TEXT The NETS translation of 1 Esdras is based on the standard critical edition prepared by Robert Hanhart (Septuaginta: Vetus Testamentum Graecum Auctoritate Academiae Scientiarum Gottingensis editum VIII.1: Es- drae liber I [Göttingen: Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 1974]). OVERVIEW OF THE BOOK This book is known as Esdras A / in the Greek tradition and 1 Esdras in English translations. 1 Esdras and 2 Esdras (Esdras B /) are one pair of double traditions found in Septuagint collections (see as well the double traditions of Daniel and Esther). They represent material from the Hebrew-Aramaic 2 Chronicles (2 Supplements), Ezra (2 Esdras 1–10), and Nehemiah (2 Esdras 11–23); in addition, in 1 Esdras there is a story of three youths who served as bodyguards for King Darius of Persia. The general relationship of content among the various versions is as follows: 1 Esdras Chr-Ezra-Neh (NRSV) (Suppl–2 Esd [NETS]) 1.1–55 2 Chr (2 Suppl) 35.1–36.21 2.1–5 Ezra 1.1–3 // 2 Chr (2 Suppl) 36.22–23 2.6–14 Ezra 1.4–11 2.15–25 4.6–24 3.1–5.6 – 5.7–45 2.1–70 // Neh 7.7–73 (2 Esd 17.7–73) 5.46–70 3.1–4.5 6.1–9.36 5.1–10.44 9.37–55 Neh 7.73–8.12 (2 Esd 17.73–18.12) The relationship of this Greek book to the Hebrew-Aramaic biblical tradition, from a source-critical point of view, is unclear. -

The Third Book of Esdras and the Tridentine Canon
218 THE JOURNAL OF THEOLOGICAL STUDIES THE THIRD BOOK OF ESDRAS AND THE TRIDENTINE CANON. THE question why the Church of Rome does not consider the Third Book of Esdras to be canonical has recently attracted fresh attention. Sir Henry Howorth in the April number in the last volume of this JOURNAL has presented one view of the question. But it is possible that there is another, as I shall endeavour to shew.1 His article was entitled 'The Modern Roman Canon and the Book of Esdras A', and in it he drew certain conclusions adverse to the Fathers of Trent and Florence. Before, however, examin ing his statements and the conclusions at which he arrives, we must be clear as to what is meant by Esdras A. In the LXX MSS Alexandrinus and Vaticanus we find two books entitled respectively Esdras A and Esdras B. The latter, Esdras B, is the Esdras and Nehemias of the Vulgate and Douay versions, the Ezra and Nehemiah of the Authorized and Revised versions. The former, Esdras A, often called the Greek Esdras, is not found in the Douay Bibles, but is the book known as 'Esdrae Tertius Liber ',and printed in the Clementine Vulgate as an appendix, together with ' Esdrae Quartus Liber' and ' Oratio Manassae '. In order to avoid confusion we may give the nomen clature as follows :- Esdras A in the Greek Bibles is III Esdras of the Clementine Vulgate, and is known as the Greek Esdras. Esdras B in the Greek Bibles is the I and II Esdras of the Vulgate, the Ezra and Nehemiah of the English versions. -

The Making of the Bible Part One: the Canon of the Holy Scriptures
Mark E. Larson The Making of the Bible Part One: The Canon of the Holy Scriptures Introduction: Do the 66 Books of the Bible Constitute All the Books God Gave Us? A. The “BIBLE” (i.e. the books) is a collection of books given by inspiration of God over the course of 1,500 years. B. Yet how do we know that the books we have today are the ones that should be in the Bible or that other books from ancient times should not be included? 1. Why were so many ancient books excluded? First & Second Books of Adam and Eve, First & Second Books of Enoch, 1 Esdras, 2 Esdras, Tobit, Judith, 1 Maccabees, 2 Maccabees. The Gospel of Peter, Holy Book of the Great Invisible Spirit, Gospel of the Twelve, the Gospel of Basilides, the Gospel of Judas, Gospel of Thomas, Epistle of Barnabas, Gospel of Philip, Gospel of Mary Magdalene, Gospel of the Hebrews, the Acts of Paul, the Preaching of Peter. 2. How were the books we have in the Bible chosen in the first place? (Genesis-Revelation) C. Many today claim that we cannot be confident that the Bible is in fact God’s word that the collection of books in it was arbitrarily chosen by men, by assembly counsels, and synods. D. However, there is a way that we can know for sure! 1. The Bible contains God’s plan of salvation! 2. God warns us that no one is to add to His word or take away from it (Deut. 4:2; Rev. -
The Influence of Lavinia and Susan Dickinson on Emily Dickinson
THE INFLUENCE OF LAVINIA AND SUSAN DICKINSON ON EMILY DICKINSON APPROVED: anof1 Processor Consulting Processooljel r Iittor Professor VJ f. r. Director of l^he Department of English Dean 'of the Graduate School w< y ABSTRACT McCarthy, Janice Spradley, The Influence of Lavinia and Susan Dickinson on Emily Dickinson. Master of Arts (English), I May, 1973, 134 pp., 6 chapters, bibliography 45 titles. The purpose of this study is to seek out, examine, and analyze the relationship that Emily Dickinson shared with her sister, Lavinia, and with her sister-in-law, Susan Gilbert Dickinson. All of her letters and poems have been carefully considered, as well as the letters and diaries of friends and relatives who might shed light on the three women. The primary sources used in this study are Emily Dickin- son's poems and letters, and the personal accounts of people who knew the Dickinson family: Millicent Todd Bingham, Mabel Loomis Todd, and Martha Dickinson Bianchi. Also of great help were recent works of David Higgins, John Cody, and John Evangelist Walsh. The thesis is divided into six chapters, each centering upon Susan or Lavinia and their relationship with Emily. Chapter One traces Emily's attachment to her sister from childhood to death. It includes poems and notes written to or about Vinnie, referring to her cats, her frequent visits away from home, and her role as protector. Chapter Two 1 begins with Emily's early acceptance of Susan Gilbert, who eventually married Austin Dickinson. Emily's desire to remain on good terms with Sue can be seen in the poems sent to Sue that reveal dependency. -
