Book SynopsisLandgraf Philipp von Hessen wurde in der Forschung bislang als der aus religiösen GrÃ"nden prinzipiell opponierende Dauerrivale des Kaisers im Reich dargestellt. Dagegen zeigt die vorliegende Studie unter Zuhilfenahme neuer methodischer Ansätze und durch die zeitliche Verortung zwischen der Restitution Herzog Ulrichs von WÃ"rttemberg (1534) und dem Abschluss des "Geheimvertrages" mit dem Kaiser (1541) als markanten Zäsuren in den politischen Beziehungen des Landgrafen zum Kaiserhaus, dass der Landgraf als ein Politiker porträtiert werden muss, der seine politischen Entscheidungen je nach Interessenlage traf und vor dem Hintergrund politischer Konjunkturen seine Beziehungen neu austarierte und sein Handeln Ã"berdachte.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Marked Quotations from Psalms in the Gospel of
Book SynopsisThere are five marked quotations from Psalms in the Gospel of Matthew. These are: (1) Ps 91:1–12 in Matt 4:6; (2) Ps 78:2 in Matt 13:35; (3) Ps 8:3 in Matt 21:16; (4) Ps 118:22–23 in Matt 21:42; and (5) Ps 110:1 in Matt 22:44. Piotr Herok argues that the investigated texts are related to each other not only by the presence of the introductory formulas, making clear that a given citation comes from Scripture, but also through mutual thematic convergence, concerning in various degrees king David, the temple, and the theme of Jesus’ identity. Thanks to the new literary context, in which the quotations are embedded, Matthew reinterprets them significantly while giving them a new dimension clearly distinguishing them from the rest of the psalm quotations found in his work. This aims at presenting Jesus as not only the Son of David, but first of all the Son of God.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Beitrage zum lateinischen Ijob: Iob 16,6; Iob
Book SynopsisThis book offers deep insights into the workshop of both church fathers and their spiritual development: Hieronymus tries his hand at Hebrew conjectures and always new combinations of his Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek and Old Latin models. He repeatedly enriches the meaning of biblical texts with ambiguous expressions and allusions to Christian and pagan authors. An example of Augustine's intellectual development in dealing with the Job text is his step-by-step clarification of the relationship between prudentia and sapientia. At the same time he expresses himself on topics as diverse as correct consoling, the development of worldly people to Christians and ancient smelting technology. Structurally, the juxtaposition of awkwardly extemporated and carefully composed passages as well as forms of gradually more precise lines of thought are striking. Jerome's ambiguous formulations stimulated Augustine to productive misunderstandings and his own, possibly even more ambiguous expressions.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Der Hebraerbrief
Book SynopsisThe Letter to the Hebrews is an early Christian sermon that was sent as a letter, perhaps to Rome. The unknown, literate and eloquent author wants to comfort and admonish the oppressed and afflicted community. The "Word of comforting admonition" unfolds a unique High Priest Christology and its meaning for the church: Look to the heavenly High Priest Jesus. You can rely on him. Do not throw away your trust - for a wonderful reward awaits you in the heavenly throne room: you will celebrate the everlasting Sabbath in the sight of God.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Thomas von Aquins Kommentar zum
Book SynopsisThe commentary of Thomas Aquinas on the Gospel of John is a masterpiece of Christian exegesis. According to Otto Hermann Pesch, who translated and edited several volumes of the German edition of Thomas Aquinas, this commentary immediately preceded his development of Christology in the Summa Theologiae and represents Thomas at the pinnacle of his exegetic skills. His take on the Gospel begins with a systematic ordering of what the Evangelist intended and how he went about realising it. Based on this framework he then provides the various interpretations, for example, factual-historical ones concerning aspects of the Jewish religion and everyday life, the topography of the Holy Land, the meaning of certain names of towns and persons or the chronology of the events in the life of Christ. Thomas always attempts to find explanations for the differences present in the other Gospels. Further, especially in the first 11 lectiones, he refers to Aristotle and many questions with philosophical implications (for example, of the meaning of the term "word" - logos). Next, Thomas relates the verse from the Gospel in question to other Biblical and non-Biblical texts. He also devotes much effort to the disputes going on with the heresies, which he attempts to refute by showing the contradiction in their arguments with the Bible.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Papyrologische Kommentare zum Neuen Testament
Book SynopsisIm Papyrologischen Kommentar zum 2. Thessalonikerbrief werden weltweit veröffentlichte dokumentarische Papyri und Ostraka aus der Zeit vom 3. Jh. v.Chr. bis zum 3. Jh. n.Chr. auf die neutestamentliche Schrift hin ausgewertet und kommentiert.Vor dem Hintergrund der dokumentarischen Zeugnisse geht Kreinecker zusätzlich zur Kommentierung der in der Forschung umstrittenen Frage nach dem Autor nach. Dabei vergleicht die Autorin nicht nur die brieflichen Formeln mit den typischen Wendungen der Papyrusbriefe, sondern stellt im Rahmen eines Exkurses auch die stilistischen Eigenheiten in antiken Papyrusarchiven dar.Spezielle Untersuchungen erfolgen außerdem zu methodischen Fragen der Vergleichbarkeit von ägyptischen und außerägyptischen Texten anhand von Sklavenkaufverträgen und anhand einer Darstellung des gemeinsamen Denkhorizontes in griechischen und lateinischen dokumentarischen Texten des Imperium Romanum.Die fër die Forschung wesentlichsten Ergebnisse betreffen zum einen die Feststellung, dass die Verwendung von Formeln und Phrasen in 2Thess starke Abweichungen zu Papyrusprivatbriefen aufweist, und zum anderen die Beobachtung, dass auffällig viele Wendungen des 2. Briefes an die Thessaloniker in den dokumentarischen Belegen primär oder ausschließlich im Rechtskontext zu finden sind. Damit weicht die Sprache in 2Thess nicht nur von den unbestrittenen Paulusbriefen (Röm, 1/2 Kor, Gal, Phil, 1Thess, Phlm) ab, sondern auch von den dokumentarischen Privatbriefen der relevanten Zeitspanne. Gerade an diesen Brëchen - so die Hypothese - verrät sich 2Thess als ein pseudepigraphisches Schreiben.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Das Alte Testament Deutsch (ATD) -
Book SynopsisSome 40 years after Gerhard von Rad's volume for the ATD Series, Timo Veijola presents the first volume of his two-volume complete revision of the Deuteronomy text comprising Chapters 1,1-16,17. The fifth book of Moses contains his farewell address to the Israelites and connects the Pentateuch with the books of Joshua through the 2nd Book of Kings. It plays an important role in Old Testament literature and reveals a multilayered evolutionary process that has occupied generations of researchers. Veijola traces the various levels of development, from the reform program of King Joshua during the 7th century BC through the Deuteronomic History to the later revisions of the 4th century BC, and pays tribute to their respective character. In his critical but fair interpretation of Chapters 1-16 the author also provides an overview of the most up-to-date state of research, commenting on both individual exegetic problems and the broad literary and theological horizon of the text.

Book SynopsisDas Buch Ruth ist das kÃ"rzeste Erzählwerk des Alten Testaments, aber dennoch ein theologisch gewichtiges Buch von hoher literarischer Meisterschaft. Es erzählt die Geschichte von zwei Frauen und ihrer Beziehung, die gleichzeitig die Geschichte der Integration von Fremden in eine tendenziell fremdenfeindliche Umwelt ist. Das Handeln Gottes und der Menschen sind in diesem Buch aufeinander hin durchlässig wie in keinem anderen Buch des Alten Testaments. Der Kommentar von Melanie Köhlmoos zeichnet den Inhalt und die meisterhafte Erzähltechnik dieses Buches detailliert, aber allgemein verständlich nach.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Ethik im Neuen Testament
Book SynopsisFor the first time in several decades, this commentary provides an overall presentation of New Testament ethics in the German-speaking world. The work of Matthias Konradt is characterized by the fact that it not only combines the analysis of the ethical perspectives presented in the New Testament with the demonstration of their theological context of justification, but also pursues their embedding in the ancient ethical traditions and social constellations and thus at the same time in their ancient context profiled. With the large number of texts examined - from Paul and the Deutero-Paulines to the Gospels to the Hebrews, James, 1st Peter and the Revelation of John - the great wealth of New Testament ethics is worked out and developed as a basis for modern reflection on Christian action.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Kritisch-exegetischer Kommentar à ber das Neue
Book SynopsisThe Epistle to Philemon is the shortest of all extant letters written by Paul. At first sight, and especially compared to the Epistle to the Romans, the Letters to the Corinthians and Galatians, it seems rather unremarkable. Here, Paul writes to mediate in a conflict between Philemon, a Christian in whose house a congregation meets, and his slave Onesimus, who too has now become a Christian. How Paul writes this letter, however, is what makes it a valuable lesson in Christian ethics, according to Peter Mëller. Mëller shows Paul's completely new worldview, made possible through the fellowship with Jesus Christ and an influence on the fellowship of all believers. The central tenets of the letter - belief, love, fellowship - do not remain noncommittal, but rather become very concrete with respect to the relationsip of Philemon to his slave Onesimus. That Paul did not explicitly demand the freeing of Onesimus from slavery has often been rebuked in recent exegesis - something Mëller rejects. In the world of ancient slavery and the existing legal terms, freeing a slave was not necessarily the best choice. And yet Paul demands of Philemon more than what was legally necessary: a new, changed relationship between slave and master which impacts everyday life. Mëller shows that regulating the matter of a relationship among unequals was not simply a personal affair, but one that concerned the entire congregation, which is why the Epistle to Philemon is important even today.
