This collection of essays contains a wide range of topics
reflecting the depth and breadth of interest of the scholar in
whose honour they were commissioned - Kevin J. Cathcart. The
central focus is Near Eastern, and covers a range of philological,
linguistic, exegetical, historical and interpretative issues. The
Near Eastern languages examined include Akkadian, Arabic, Aramaic,
Ethiopic, Hebrew, Septuagintal Greek, Syriac and Ugaritic, while
exegetical and text-critical topics include treatments of issues in
Deuteronomy, 1 Kings, Isaiah, Amos, Psalms and the Song of Songs.
Hermeneutical and historical essays touch on Ancient Israel's
history and its interpretation, as well as on the significance of
such individuals as the consular official John Dickson, E.H. Palmer
in the Cambridge Libraries, William Lithgow of Lanark, and the
contribution to Semitic epigraphy of the explorer Julius Euting.
This is volume 375 in the Journal for the Study of the Old
Testament Supplement series.
This is the first English translation of the commentary by fourth
century A.D. theologian Ephrem the Syrian on the Diatessaron--a
Gospel woven from the text of the four Gospels, which predates our
earliest evidence of the official Syriac translation of the New
Testament. The translation fills a gap in scholarship and will be
appreciated by patristics and biblical scholars, hagiographers, and
historians of Christianity.
