The series Beihefte zur Zeitschrift fur die alttestamentliche
Wissenschaft (BZAW) covers all areas of research into the Old
Testament, focusing on the Hebrew Bible, its early and later forms
in Ancient Judaism, as well as its branching into many neighboring
cultures of the Ancient Near East and the Greco-Roman world. BZAW
welcomes submissions that make an original and significant
contribution to the field; demonstrate sophisticated engagement
with the relevant secondary literature; and are written in
readable, logical, and engaging prose.
This volume aims to examine the history and the impact of Wilhelm
Gesenius s Concise Hebrew-German Dictionary in the context of
historical research. From the time of its initial publication in
1810 through its most recent 18th edition completed in 2010, the
dictionary has been among the most important reference works for
scholars in Hebrew language studies, Old Testament biblical
studies, and Semitic studies. It has exerted lasting influence on
Old Testament biblical exegesis, Hebrew lexicography, and Semitic
language studies. The 33 essays in this volume provide a picture of
the dictionary's diverse historical interrelationships and
impacts."
Beside the Masoretic text, the orally transmitted Samaritan reading
tradition is the most important source for the vocalisation of the
Torah. The author points to parallel developments in Qumran, and
sees the development of the Samaritan tradition from the 2nd
century BC as part of the creation of specific group identities
within Judaism, and examines its transmission. In addition, the
work offers a comprehensive analysis of the more than 400 textually
relevant differences in vocalisation between the Samaritan and
Masoretic traditions in the Book of Genesis.
The work of Egyptologists, scholars in Ancient Oriental Studies and
biblical exegesis concentrates on texts which are translated,
commented on, and used as sources. The production and reception of
texts in these closely interrelated cultures hardly seems
comparable to corresponding models in our world. The present volume
resulted from a conference on those differences and commonalities,
and addresses the question of what constitutes a linguistic "text"
in the cultures referred to. It presents papers on the
reconstruction of culturally specific concepts of text from the
perspective of the disciplines concerned.
Das weit uber die Grenzen der Theologie hinaus bekannte Hauptwerk
des Alttestamentlers und Palastinawissenschaftlers Gustaf Dalman
(1855-1941), Arbeit und Sitte in Palastina , erschien ab 1928 in
verschiedenen Verlagen und hat seitdem mehrere Neuauflagen erlebt.
Das Werk verschafft einen Einblick in das vorindustrielle,
traditionelle Alltagsleben der arabischen Bewohner Palastinas um
die Wende vom 19. zum 20. Jahrhundert. Dalman hat damit ein
umfassendes Dokument der Volks- und Landeskunde verfasst, das auch
zur Erhellung der biblischen Texte beigetragen hat. Der achte und
letzte Band des Werkes konnte von Dalman nicht mehr ganz
fertiggestellt werden. Der Verlag Walter de Gruyter legt hier
erstmals in einer Edition des Gustaf-Dalman-Instituts in Greifswald
den bislang unveroeffentlichten letzten Band von Dalmans beruhmter
kulturgeschichtlicher Palastinastudie vor. Der Band enthalt neben
dem von Dalman verfassten Text uber Geburt, Kindererziehung, das
hausliche Leben und das Lebensende im Palastina nach der
Jahrhundertwende erstmals ein komplettes Literaturverzeichnis zu
allen Banden, ebenso ein Gesamtregister zu den Banden I-VIII,
bestehend aus Sachregister, Bibelstellenregister und - neu -
Register der rabbinischen Zitate. Ein ausfuhrlicher Bildteil
enthalt Fotografien, die zumeist von Dalman selbst aufgenommen
wurden. Die Fotografien des Bildteils illustrieren den vorgelegten
Band VIII in seinen behandelten Aspekten.
