Book SynopsisMr Bartlett's volume, like the others in the series, contains the text in the New English Bible. After a general introduction to the book as a whole, the text is given in short passages, with a commentary directly following each. These Jewish historical works, the two books of the Maccabees, were written to describe the struggles of the Jews in the second century BC against encroachment of the Greek way of life and against the political domination of the Syrians. The particular purpose of this commentary is to bring out the political and religious motives of the various parties to the struggle.Table of ContentsThe world of the Maccabees; The dating of events in 1 and 2 Maccabees; The Syrian administration; Ancient writers who describe this period; The First Book of the Maccabees; The original text and its date; The author's approach to the work; The historical value of I Maccabees; The author; Antiochus and the Jewish revolt; The war under Judas and Jonathan; Jonathan rules the nation; The high-priesthood of Simon; The Second Book of the Maccabees; The original text and its date; The author's approach to the work; The historical value of 2 Maccabees; The author.

Cambridge University Press The Early Medieval Bible Its Production Decoration and Use 2 Cambridge Studies in Palaeography and Codicology Series Number 2
Book SynopsisThe significance of the Bible in the life, thought and culture of the early Middle Ages can hardly be overstated. Here eleven linked studies, embracing palaeography, history, art history, theology and textual scholarship, examine and interpret the evidence of Bible manuscripts (including gospel books and Psalters) in their cultural context from late antiquity to the thirteenth century. Subjects include the earliest Bible manuscripts, the Gospels in a missionary context, the scriptorium of Tours, the development of the early glossed Psalter, the Old Testament in tenth- and eleventh-century England, the Italian Giant Bibles, the origins of the Paris Bible, the illustration of the early Gothic Psalter and the planning and production of the Hamburg Bible. Together these essays provide a broad-ranging, authoritative treatment of themes which are of central importance for the history and culture of the times.Table of ContentsPreface; 1. The oldest manuscripts of the Latin Bible Patrick McGurk; 2. The Royal 1. B. vii Gospels and English book production in the seventh and eighth centuries Richard Gameson; 3.

Cambridge University Press Relics of Ancient Exegesis A Study of the Miscellanies in 3 Reigns 2 4 Society for Old Testament Study Monographs Series Number 4
Book SynopsisThe fourth book in this established series of monographs on aspects of Old Testament studies is a detailed analysis of two passages that may well hold the key to the major textual problems raised by the ancient Greek translation of 1 Kings (3 Reigns in the Septuagint). The existence of these two extended passages, standing in 3 Reigns 2 at verses 35 and 46, has long been noticed and partial studies have been made by some scholars. In the present study Dr Gooding not only offers a detailed analysis of all the diverse elements that go to make up these passages but also demonstrates that these originally diverse elements, many of which were themselves either variant readings or alternative translations and interpretations of the Hebrew, have been carefully edited and arranged by some ancient scholar-exegete to form a discourse or midrash on two aspects of Soloman's reign. This monograph will therefore be of interest not only to Septuagintal experts but also to all who are interested in thTable of ContentsPreface; Publishers note; The text of the miscellanies; 1. A strange phenomenon; 2. The themes of the miscellanies; 3. Instances of midrashic exegesis in the miscellanies; 4. Categories of material in the miscellanies; 5. Some special cases; 6. An interesting addition to the second miscellany; 7. The duplicate Part I of the Shimei story; 8. The implications; Notes; Indexes.
