It opens with the study by Cécile Dogniez, “Dire le lien dans la Bible grecque”, a study on specific terms to express relationships. Robert Hiebert, “A ‘Genetic’ Commentary on the Septuagint of Genesis”, presents the basic insights which will guide his future commentary. Annette Weissenrieder, “Die lebendige Wirkung des Geistes in Gen 2,7LXX. Das Bedeu- -pnoh/ im Lichte antiker medi / נשמה emfusa/w und / נפח tungsspektrum von zinischer Quellen” looks into contemporary Greek anthropology and medicine in order to shed led on the idea of creation in Gen 2. Pablo A. Torijano, “The Two Parallels Texts of the List of Solomon's Officials: 3 Reigns 4:2-6 and 2:46h” discusses basic phenomena in this interesting passage from the so-called non-kaige section of the books of Reigns. Siegfried Kreuzer, “Old Greek, kaige and the trifaria varietas – a new perspective on Jerome’s statement” suggests how Jerome’s famous statement may be understood in regard to the relation of Old Greek and the kaige- recension. Gunnar Eidsvåg, “The Paleo-Hebrew Tetragram in 8ḤevXIIgr” discusses the presention of the name of God in this important manuscript and in its context. Takamitsu Muraoka, “A methodological issue in Septuagint studies with special reference to lexicography” takes up some criticism of his large Greek lexicon and discusses basic methodological issues. In the dissertation abstracts two young scolars inform about their studies: Nathan LaMontagne, “The Song of Deborah (Judges 5): Meaning and Poetry in the Septuagint”, and Patrick Pouchelle, “Dieu éducateur: Une nouvelle approche d’un concept de la théologie biblique entre Bible Hébraïque, Septante et littérature grecque classique“. The book reviews again cover a wide range of works, both monographs and collected essays or Festschriften. It should be mentioned that IOSCS has renewed its agreement with Eisenbrauns. One of the new terms is that Eisenbrauns will directly take care of libraries and institutions. Private persons will continue to reeceive their copy through being or becoming member of the Organization – and are cordially invited to do so (for more information see the homepage). Siegfried Kreuzer 4 Dire le lien dans la Bible grecque: Quelques observations sur l’expression de l’attachement et de la proximité. CÉCILE DOGNIEZ La notion de lien nous semble constituer de manière générale dans la Bible un registre d’une très grande richesse, mais également l’un des plus ambigus. D’une très grande richesse en ce que la question autour de laquelle ce thème s’organise – c’est-à-dire la question de savoir de quelle nature est ce lien - concerne pratiquement tous les domaines, anthropologique, social, économi- que, affectif et bien sûr religieux, sans oublier son acception proprement physique, spatiale ou territoriale. Cette notion de lien permet ainsi d’analyser au sein d’un même champ sémantique toute une variété de relations, qu’il s’agisse du rapport interhumain – de l’homme à la femme ou des différents manières d’être avec autrui – de la relation de l’homme à Dieu, mais aussi de nom- breuses autres formes d’adhérence, telles que la langue collée au palais ou les maux qui pour ainsi dire nous « collent à la peau ». Mais cette notion n’est pas non plus dépourvue d’ambiguité dans la mesure où la fusion et la prox- imité sont proches parentes dans bien des cas de l’exclusion et de la séparation. Nous n’examinerons bien sûr pas toutes les formes de lien dans la Bible grecque mais nous nous arrêterons à quelques-unes d’entre elles que la langue exprime en termes d’attachement, au sens propre comme figuré. En partant de la terminologie hébraïque qui formule ce type de lien, nous es- saierons de voir si les traducteurs de la Septante ont restitué de façon fidèle le mode d’expression de l’original hébreu ou, s’ils s’en sont au contraire éloi- gnés, ce qu’ils ont dans ce cas voulu dire. Il convient en effet de préciser en tout premier lieu que nous n’étudierons pas, par exemple, la forme de lien qui rend compte de l’amitié ou de l’amour 1 à travers le lexique bh) en hébreu, ou ἀγαπᾶν / φιλεῖν en grec , lesquels 1 Sur ce sujet, voir par exemple R. Joly, Le vocabulaire chrétien de l’amour est-il origi- nal ? Φιλεῖν et ἀγαπᾶν dans le grec antique, Bruxelles, Presses Universitaires de Bruxelles, 1968. J.

Nous ne prendrons pas non plus en compte la forme suprême de l’attachement religieux de l’homme à Dieu que le grec nomme εὐσέβεια2, ni non plus cet attachement passionné, exclusif, de Dieu à son peuple, qui lui fait ne tolérer aucun rival en vertu de l’élection et de l’alliance, et que l’hébreu exprime à l’aide de la racine )nq,

  • It Is Difficult to Speak About Jeremiah Without Comparing Him to Isaiah. It
    751 It is diffi cult to speak about Jeremiah without comparing him to Isaiah. It might be wrong to center everything on the differences between their reactions to God’s call, namely, Isaiah’s enthusiasm (Is 6:8) as opposed to Jeremiah’s fear (Jer 1:6). It might have been only a question of their different temperaments. Their respec- tive vocation and mission should be complementary, both in terms of what refers to their lives and writings and to the infl uence that both of them were going to exercise among believers. Isaiah is the prophecy while Jeremiah is the prophet. The two faces of prophet- ism complement each other and they are both equally necessary to reorient history. Isaiah represents the message to which people will always need to refer in order to reaffi rm their faith. Jeremiah is the ever present example of the suffering of human beings when God bursts into their lives. There is no room, therefore, for a sentimental view of a young, peaceful and defenseless Jeremiah who suffered in silence from the wickedness of his persecu- tors. There were hints of violence in the prophet (11:20-23). In spite of the fact that he passed into history because of his own sufferings, Jeremiah was not always the victim of the calamities that he had announced. In his fi rst announcement, Jeremiah said that God had given him authority to uproot and to destroy, to build and to plant, specifying that the mission that had been entrusted to him encompassed not only his small country but “the nations.” The magnitude to such a task assigned to a man without credentials might surprise us; yet it is where the fi nger of God does appear.

  • Book of Isaiah
    Book of Isaiah Chapter 30 Theme: Judah admonished not to turn to Egypt for help against Assyria; exhorted to turn to the Lord Michael Fronczak 564 Schaeffer Dr. Coldwater, Michigan 49036 Bible Study Resource Center Copyright © 2017 Chapter 30 These two chapters present largely a local situation, although a larger prophecy of a future time grows out of it. The local prophecy has been literally fulfilled. The southern kingdom of Judah heard and heeded the prophet's warning and did not join with Egypt in order to be delivered from the Assyrian. The northern kingdom of Israel made the mistake of ignoring the prophet's warning, and they went into Assyrian captivity (see 2Kings 17:4). This is one time when the southern kingdom profited by the experience of the northern kingdom.1 This oracle (chap. 30) and the next one (chap. 31) center on the folly of attempting to make an alliance with Egypt to ward off the Assyrian threat. At this time Egypt was waning as a world power and could be of no real assistance to Israel and Judah in their fight against the strong Assyrian Empire. But a strong faction in Judah, rather than turning to God for protection, wanted to seek aid from Egypt.2 Chapter 30 can hardly be understood with out the historical context being well in mind. The great historical event of the defeat of the Assyrian army recorded in Isaiah 36-37 is predicted in these chapters in great detail. The historical background of chapter thirty needs to be well in mind, while reading it to understand the words of the chapter.

  • Week 11 the Lord of Creation Against His People Micah 1-2 Threats
    Week 11 The Lord of Creation Against His People _________________________ Micah 1-2 Micah opens with God summoning the people of the earth to come and witness his judgment against Israel1. Both Israel in the north and Judah in the south are under divine condemnation. The first half of chapter 1 establishes God’s authority and power through the distruption of creation itself at his coming. The prophet announces the unmaking of Samaria as the city is returned to its pre-inhabited state. The second half of the chapter begins the judgment against Judah through a series of wordplays using the city names of some of the prominent communities of Judah. The big picture of chapter 1 is that the Lord Almighty, before whom all creation quakes, will come to judge his people for their sin. Threats Against Samaria & Jerusalem (1:1-16) 1. Read Micah 1:1-7. In Leviticus 18:24-30, the Lord explained to Israel that the land of Canaan had “vomited out its inhabitants” because the canaanites had become unclean for their many sins. They had defiled the land with their paganism. Israel was being warned that the same could happen to them when they took possession of Canaan. What does this teach us about the relationship between God, his world, and sin? 2. In verse 7, we see that the punishment to come would see the Assyrian army using the precious metals taken from Samaria to increase the extravagance of their own cultic centers. How is this an appropriate punishment for the sin of Samaria?2 1Micah served the Lord from Judah around the same time as Hosea in Israel and Isaiah in Jerusalem.

  • Biblical Unicorns and Fiery Flying Serpents: Not Dinosaurs and Not Pterosaurs
    International Journal of Orthodox Theology 10:2 (2019) 199 urn:nbn:de:0276-2019-2087 Philip Senter Biblical unicorns and fiery flying serpents: not dinosaurs and not pterosaurs Abstract An enormous body of literature claims that the Bible mentions dino- saurs and other Mesozoic reptiles. Such literature includes publications that claim that biblical “unicorns” are horned dinosaurs and that the “fiery flying serpents” of the Bible are fire- breathing or bioluminescent ptero- saurs. However, clues from within the Bible and elsewhere reveal the bibli- cal “unicorn” is most likely the rhi- Professor Philip Senter, noceros or the aurochs and that the Ph.D, Department of Bio- “fiery flying serpent” is most likely the logical Sciences Fayette- cobra. The allegations that such ani- ville State University, Fa- mals are dinosaurs or pterosaurs is yetteville, NC, United without supporting evidence. States of America 200 Philip Senter Keywords Bible, Old Testament, Isaiah, unicorn, fiery flying serpent, dinosaur, pterosaur, creationism 1 Introduction Advocates of the view that humans and dinosaurs coexisted have claimed that the Bible mentions dinosaurs since soon after dinosaurs were discovered. The earliest scientific description of a carnivorous dinosaur ( Megalosaurus ) was published in 1824, 1 and the earliest scientific descriptions of an herbivorous dino- saur ( Iguanodon ) were published in 1825 2 and 1833. 3 In 1835, the English politician Thomas Thompson published an article arguing that Megalosaurus and Iguanodon were respectively the biblical monsters Leviathan and Behemoth. 4 His article was the first drop in what would become a deluge of articles and books advocating the view that the Bible mentions dinosaurs, ptero- saurs, and other reptiles that are known today only from Meso- zoic fossils.
