Proceedings of a conference held Sept. 18-20, 2008 at Trinity
Western University.
This tribute to Albert Pietersma of the University of Toronto is
offered by a highly distinguished international panel of scholars,
including John W. Wevers, Takamitsu Muraoka, Anneli Aejmelaeus,
Emanuel Tov, Johan Lust, Robert A. Kraft, Johann Cook, Arie van der
Kooij, Moises Silva and Claude E. Cox. The focus of the volume is
on the Old Greek Psalter and its significance for biblical research
and related disciplines, where it marks a definitive statement of
research questions and issues in this increasingly important area
of biblical textual studies.
This volume of essays is focused on the significance of the book of
Exodus for studies in the Septuagint, Second Temple Jewish
literature, the New Testament, and Christian theology. A diverse
group of scholars from various parts of the world, many of whom are
well-known in their fields, employs a range of methodologies in the
treatment of text-critical, linguistic, literary, historical,
cultural, exegetical, intertextual, and theological topics. Parts
of the relevant literary corpus that are dealt with in relation to
the book of Exodus include Genesis, Leviticus, Deuteronomy, Psalms,
Zechariah, 3 Maccabees, the Gospels of Matthew and Mark, the
Epistles of 1 Thessalonians, Hebrews, and 1 Peter, as well as the
Dead Sea Scrolls. This book will be a valuable resource for
scholars and students in the areas of biblical and theological
studies, as well as clergy. The distinguished contributors include
Emanuel Tov, Albert Pietersma, Daniela Scialabba, Craig A. Evans,
James M. Scott, Martin G. Abegg Jr., and Wolfgang Kraus.
