Opis produktu

Jacqueline Vayntrub is Assistant Professor of Hebrew Bible at Yale University USALaura Quick is Assistant Professor of Religion and Judaic Studies at Princeton University USA.Dr. Michael Lyons is Lecturer in Hebrew Bible/Old Testament at the University of St. Andrews UK.This work allows the reader to better understand Ezekiels arguments by providing a detailed analysis of his techniques and rhetoric of allusion to Leviticus 1726 (the Holiness Code).This work offers the reader methodological criteria for determining the directionality of literary dependence between two texts sharing parallel locutions.This work sheds light on textreferencing practices and ideas about sacred texts in ancient Israel.This work examines textreferencing practices and ideas about sacred texts in antiquity. This book shows how Ezekiel an ancient Israelite author borrowed from and transformed an earlier text containing religious instruction. Ezekiel used this earlier text (Lev 1726 the Holiness Code) in order to explain the sixthcentury destruction of his city and the exile of its inhabitants and to create hope for the exilic community of which he was a part. It was precisely because he regarded this text as authoritative and paradigmatic for his own day that he borrowed its words and phrases and transformed them for inclusion in his own work. The techniques behind these transformations include syntactic modification inversion of word order creation of word pairs splitup and recombination of locutions creation of word clusters conflation wordplay and reversals.By transforming the Holiness Codes legal instructions and covenant rhetoric into accusations and descriptions of imminent or recent punishment Ezekiel could explain the tragedy by creating a causal connection between the peoples behavior and the disaster they experienced. By selectively and paradigmatically using the Holiness Codes covenant blessings Ezekiel envisioned a future characterized by physical and spiritual restoration. Ezekiel transformed law into prophecy in his attempt to meet the needs of his community.This work examines textreferencing practices and ideas about sacred texts in antiquity. This book shows how Ezekiel an ancient Israelite author borrowed from and transformed an earlier text containing religious instruction.PrefaceAbbreviationsTable of Contents INTRODUCTION CHAPTER 1.
