What does it mean to engage in “political” interpretation of        ancient texts? What can Biblical scholars learn from Classicists about        the emperor cult? These are a few of the questions addressed in this        volume. Highlighting the work of scholars in Eastern and Western Europe,        it offers fresh perspectives on “political” aspects of early Jewish and        Christian texts. Contributions include exegetical studies with literary        and historical interests, as well as critical hermeneutical reflection.        Essays analyze texts from the Hebrew Bible, Septuagint, and New        Testament, plus Josephus and extra-canonical Christian literature.","brand":"Peeters Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49546335420759,"sku":"9789042940338","price":88.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/reading-the-political-in-jewish-and-christian-texts-9789042940338","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
