Modern Israel and its relations with its Arab neighbors has been
conspicuously in the daily news ever since World War II. Until that
time, the concept of Israel and a continuing Jewish people had been
hovering in the distant background of Christian thought and
doctrine since the post-apostolic era. In this important work, Dr.
Diprose demonstrates the uniqueness of Israel and its special place
in the divine plan. By carefully reviewing relevant New Testament
and post-apostolic writings, the author traces the origin and
development of Replacement Theology--the concept that the Church
has completely and permanently replaced ethnic Israel in the
outworking of God's plan throughout history--challenging its origin
and role in the development of Christian thought on the future of
ethnic Israel.
In 1924, Professor Sperber graduated from Bonn University with a
dissertation on "Das Propheten-Targum in seinem Verhaltnis zum
masoretischen Text". He was then invited to prepare a critical
edition of the Targum. Thus Professor Sperber began an immense
task. The Bible in Aramaic is the fruit of more than forty years of
study, during which he made innumerable trips to various countries
in order to visit libraries and examine manuscripts. The first part
of the Bible in Aramaic appeared in 1959. Needless to say that this
work is indispensable for students of the Old Testament. Let the
reviews that have accumulated over the years speak for themselves.

"Religious Transactions in Colonial South India" locates the
"making" of Protestant identities in South India within several
contesting discourses. It examines evolving attitudes to
translation and translation practices in the Tamil literary and
sacred landscapes initiated by early missionary translations of the
Bible in Tamil. Situating the Tamil Bible firmly within
intersecting religious, literary, and social contexts, Hephzibah
Israel offers a fresh perspective on the translated Bible as an
object of cultural transfer. She focuses on conflicts in three key
areas of translation--locating a sacred lexicon, the politics of
language registers and "standard versions," and competing generic
categories--as discursive sites within which Protestant identities
have been articulated by Tamils. By widening the cultural and
historical framework of the Tamil Bible, this book is the first to
analyze the links connecting language use, translation practices,
and caste affiliations in the articulation of Protestant identities
in India.
