There has been widespread neglect by scholars of deuterocanonical
books, especially those (e.g., Baruch) that are thought to lack
originality. This book seeks to address this lacuna by
investigating some of the major interpretive issues in Baruchan
scholarship. The volume comprises a collection of essays from an
international team of scholars who specialise in Second Temple
Judaism and Old Testament pseudepigrapha. Topics covered include:
historical issues (the person of Baruch), literary structure,
intertextual relationships between Baruch and the OT (Jeremiah,
Isaiah), reception history (Christian and Jewish), and modern
translation challenges. This is the first volume of essays that
exclusively focus on Baruch and one that seeks to provide a
foundation for future investigations.
