  • Foster~Volume 1
    Bratich z Amassing the Multitude 1 1 The Multivalence of the Term “Original Text” in New Testament Textual Criticism Eldon Jay Epp Introduction ne hundred and ninety-one years ago, in 1808, Johann Leonhard Hug’s Introduction to the New Testament carried statements that, in part, may Ostrike textual critics as being far ahead of their time. Hug laments the loss of all the original manuscripts of the New Testament writings “so import- ant to the church” and wonders: “How shall we explain this singular fact?” Next, he observes that Paul and others employed secretaries, but Hug views the closing salutation, written in the author’s own hand, as “sufficient to give them the value of originals.” Then, referring to the further role that scribes and correctors must have played after such a Christian writing had been dictated by its author, he says: Let us now suppose, as it is very natural to do, that the same librarius [copyist] who was employed to make this copy, made copies likewise for opulent individuals and other churches – and there was no original at all, or there were perhaps ten or more [originals] of which none could claim superiority.1 A writing with no original? Or, with ten originals? And proposed by a scholar at the outset of the nineteenth century? Later Hug asserts that “the New Testament has had the peculiar fate of suffering more by intentional alterations than the Source: Harvard Theological Review, 92(3) (1999): 245–281. 2 New Testament Studies works of profane literature . and the heretics, to whom it would perhaps be attributed, had no share in it.”2 What he is saying by both assertions is that, because “strange things had happened in individual mss, even at this early period”3 (that is, before the mid-third century).

  • CHAPTER ONE Introductory Matters
    CHAPTER ONE Introductory Matters Being a sacred document of faith and socio-religious history, the Old Testament or the Hebrew Bible1 has been subjected to various scholarly investigations since the dawn of the modern era. At the on-set, Old Testa- ment study was dominated by the quest for a theological understanding of the Hebrew Bible. This earliest orthodox confessional approach made no distinction between biblical theology and dogmatic theology or between Old Testament theology and New Testament theology. Old Testament theology as a discipline in the modern sense is just about two centuries old. As Ralph Smith notes, many Old Testament scholars ascribe its foundation to an eighteenth-century rationalist, Johann Philipp Gabler, who attributed the confusion in the Christian world to “an improper use of the Bible” and lack of distinction “between dogmatic theology and the simple historical religion of the Bible.” Through his March 30, 1787, inaugural speech at the Univer- sity of Altdorf, he thus “called for a separation of dogmatic and biblical theology,” and hence “he is often called the father of biblical theology.”2 Gabler’s call was in response to a demand for what was termed “biblical theology” since about the mid-seventeenth century—a critical trend which resulted from the insufficiency of and danger posed by the Protestant Reformation principle of sola scriptura with regard to the method of doing theology. Of course, neither Gabler nor the Reformers did originate the phrase “biblical theology.” He rather employed and described

  • Professor Rolf P. Knierim and Mrs. Hildegard E. Knierim
    1 Professor Rolf P. Knierim and Mrs. Hildegard E. Knierim Obituary Marvin A. Sweeney Claremont School of Theology I deeply regret to announce the passing of Professor Rolf P. Knierim (90) and Mrs. Hildegard E. Knierim, née Salm, (89) on September 29, 2018. Both died instantly in an automobile accident near Winslow, Arizona, while returning to Claremont from a brief vacation in New Mexico. Professor Knierim was born in Pirmasens and Mrs. Knierim was born in Edenkoben, both in the Rhineland-Palatinate region in Germany near the French border. They met at the age of 5 or 6 in elementary school, and later faced the challenges of World War II. Professor Knierim was forced into military service at the age of 15, but later turned himself in to American MP’s following the bombardment and capture of his home town. After the conclusion of the war, he continued his education at the Humanitisches Gymnasium in Pirmasens, the Methodist Seminary in Frankfurt am Main, and Heidelberg University. The Knierims were married in 1955, and Professor Knierim was ordained as an Elder in the Methodist Church in 1957. Mrs. Knierim devoted herself to her family. She was well- known for her cheerful personality, her wonderful hospitality, and her own keen intellect. The Knierims are the parents of five children, Johannes, Eva, Eberhard, Barbara, and Gabriele Knierim, and they are grandparents of five grandchildren. While at Heidelberg, Professor Knierim served as a pastor, hospital chaplain, assistant to Professors Claus Westermann and Gerhard von Rad, and Privatdozent. He was invited to write a 2 doctoral dissertation under the supervision of Professor von Rad, and he earned his Dr.

  • Twentieth-Century Old Testament Studies: a Quick Survey WALTER BRUEGGEMANN Columbia Theological Seminary Decatur, Georgia
    Word & World Volume XX, Number 1 Winter 2000 Twentieth-Century Old Testament Studies: A Quick Survey WALTER BRUEGGEMANN Columbia Theological Seminary Decatur, Georgia HE CONTOURS OF WESTERN CULTURAL HISTORY THROUGH THE TWENTIETH century are in large sweep identifiable: an initial moment of innocence until 1914, the willful barbarism of the two wars (1914-1945), the long tense stand-off of the cold war (1945-1989), and a final decade of localism in the presence of “the last superpower” (1989-2000). I do not suggest that the story of critical Old Testament study is dictated or controlled by the forces of public history. But neither does this particular tale of scholarship exist in a vacuum, without reference to context. In re- viewing and assessing such scholarship, it is important to remember that scholar- ship is conducted by real people who live in the real world with its immense gifts and dangers. I. Old Testament studies at the outset of the twentieth century were completely Among WALTER BRUEGGEMANN’s many writings is his recent proposal, Theology of the Old Testament: Testimony, Dispute, and Advocacy (Fortress, 1997). In the past hundred years, Old Testament scholarship has moved from the his- torical positivism of the late nineteenth century through the strong theological in- terpretations of mid-century and the literary or canonical concerns of the 1970s to the variety of methods given birth by the radical pluralism of century’s end. Great change has brought the field great vitality and energy. Copyright © 2000 by Word & World, Luther Seminary, St. Paul, MN. All rights reserved.

Divine Anger, Divine Holiness and the Exclusion of Moses in Numbers and Deuteronomy Kin Foon MAN Doctor of Philosophy The University of Edinburgh 2017 2 Abstract This dissertation investigates the exclusion of Moses from the Promised Land in Numbers and Deuteronomy. Why are there different reasons given for his exclusion in the two books? Can they be explained by the complex redactions of Deuteronomy? There are four different answers to the question of Moses’ exclusion. According to Deut 1-3, divine anger is directed at Moses because he is the leader of the first exodus generation on whom the wrath of God is visited. Moses is excluded because he should bear the same punishment as the first generation of Israelites who left Egypt. Another reason is given in Deut 4, a mixture of late layers in the Deuteronomistic History.
