    The nineteenth century was a period in which ideas of history and time were challenged as never before. This is the first book to explore how the study of classical antiquity and the study of the Bible together formed an image of the past which became central to Victorian self-understanding. These specially commissioned, multi-disciplinary essays brilliantly reveal the richness of Victorian thinking about the past and how important these models of antiquity were in the expression of modernity. In an age of progress, cultural anxiety and cultural hope was fuelled by the shock of the old - new discoveries about the deep past, and new ways of thinking about humanity's place in history. The volume provides a rich and readable feast which will be fundamental to all those seeking a greater understanding of the Victorians, as well as of the reception of classics and the Bible

    Klappentext: Jewish Bible commentary in the Middle Ages took on two aspects, the Sephardic and the Ashkenazic. The first, Spanish interpretation, developed in a Muslim surrounding, which appreciated secular studies, the sciences, and Arabic literature, much of which it had translated from Greek. These studies made their mark on Bible exegesis, which sought the simple straightforward sense (peshat) of a verse and its grammatical meaning. The Ashkenazic school, however, situated in France and Germany, was firmly anchored in the rabbinic study hall and its exegesis was a continuation of the methods of Midrash and Aggadah as practiced in Mishnah and Talmud. In the beginning of the twelfth century, Ashkenazic commentary in northern France took on a new face. Contact with the outside world, including Christian scholarship, and partial knowledge of general studies, brought the Ashkenazi Jewish commentators to the realization that the Bible, besides being a religious text, was also literature. As literature, many features including the order of biblical pericopes or units attracted attention. The classic commentators, Rashi in France, Ibn Ezra in Toledo and Ramban (Nahmanides) in northern Spain all dealt with biblical order. Order as Meaning cites many cases of sequential arrangement and juxtaposition taken from the rabbinic period as well as from the above three commentators, explaining what there was to learn from such a study

    Benjamin Klichör, Professor für Altes Testament, will mit seinem neuen Buch zu einem besseren Verständnis des Alten Testamentes beitragen.Viele Christen tun sich schwer, das Alte Testament zu lesen. Ist es nicht nur Vorgeschichte und eine Verstehenshilfe für das Neue Testament, die selbst schwer verständlich ist? Ausgehend vom Apostolischen Glaubensbekenntnis, das die zentralen Inhalte des christlichen Glaubens formuliert, zeigt Benjamin Kilchör, dass das Alte und Neue Testament eine untrennbare Einheit bilden.In der Bibel Alten und Neuen Testaments offenbart sich Gott als Vater, Sohn und Heiliger Geist, schafft die Gemeinschaft der Heiligen, wirkt Vergebung der Sünden und schenkt das ewige Leben. Dieses Buch zeigt das Gesamtbild und hilft so, auch das Alte Testament selbst besser zu verstehen!"Dieses Buch ist eine notwendige Medizin für Christen heute. Es hilft gegen die Verunsicherung, oft sogar Entfremdung von Christen gegenüber dem Alten Testament."Pfr. Ulrich Parzany, Kassel"Dieses Buch ist eigentlich eine Biblische Theologie im Taschenformat. Es führt anhand des Glaubensbekenntnisses vom Garten Eden bis zum himmlischen Jerusalem -- spannend zu lesen vom Anfang bis zum Ende, kompakt, aber gut verständlich und überaus informativ."Pfrn. Prof. Dr. Hanna Stettler, Tübingen/Flaach ZH"Dieses Buch weckt Freude am Alten Testament - und das ist gut so: Denn der christliche Glaube lebt aus der gesamten Geschichte Gottes mit den Menschen. Man kann das Buch in einem Zug lesen und erhält damit ein Panorama zu wesentlichen biblisch-theologischen Themen - oder man kann es genauso gewinnbringend als Arbeitshilfe für die Predigtvorbereitung, für Glaubenskurse oder für die religionspädagogische Arbeit einsetzen."Prof. Dr. Stefan Schweyer, Universitäree Theologische Hochschule STH Basel

    During the Reformation and the massive conflicts surrounding the church and important questions of faith, the idea of the end of the world also gained in significance. Various reform movements interpreted events, opponents, and also themselves as apocalyptical waypoints and used them to justify their teachings. The resulting end-times discourse is the object of study in this volume In den Auseinandersetzungen des 16. Jahrhunderts um Kirche und zentrale Glaubensfragen ist der Diskurs der reformatorischen Bewegungen von einem Bedeutungszuwachs apokalyptischer Deutungsschemata geprägt. Die Kritik an Kirche und kirchlichen Institutionen, aber auch die eigene Position wurden entlang endzeitlicher Deutungen exegetisch legitimiert: Identifikationen von gegenwärtigen und historischen Ereignissen, Personen und Personengruppen anhand apokalyptischer Bilder wurden aus der für die eigene Bewegung beanspruchten Perspektive der Rechtgläubigkeit argumentiert. Die dadurch entstandene apokalyptische Gegenwartsdeutung speiste sich vorrangig aus der Bibel, allerdings wurden auch andere Quellen wie astrologische und visionäre Weissagungen verwendet. Insbesondere die darin manifestierten unterschiedlichen Auffassungen von Exegese, Offenbarung und Prophetie trugen zu einem endzeitlichen Diskurs bei, der zwischen der diskursmächtigen lutherischen Bewegung und marginalisierten reformatorischen Richtungen geführt wurde und Gegenstand dieser diskursanalytischen und kulturwissenschaftlichen Untersuchung ist

    Nobel Peace Prize-winner Elie Wiesel brings ancient religious leaders to literary life, framing his commentary with pressing and enduring questions as a survivor and witness to the Holocaust. Five Biblical Portraits represents an old-new approach to Jewish textual commentary. This sequel to Elie Wiesel s Messengers of God continues the work done in that volume of bringing religious figures to life and studying their place both in the text and in our lives. Wiesel reflects on his own life as well as the tragedy of the Holocaust as he discusses each figure and adds personal framing and insight into the religious study. Through sensitive readings of the scriptures as well as the Talmudic and Hasidic sources, Wiesel illuminates Joshua, Elijah, Saul, Jeremiah, and Jonah. He seeks not simple answers but fully complex responses to the crucial questions of human suffering as he examines each religious figure in turn. Originally published in 1981, this new edition of Five Biblical Portraits includes a new text design, cover, and an introduction by Ariel Burger, which examines how Wiesel s post-Holocaust Midrash teaches us not only how to read the Bible but also how to read the world

    Jewish Bible commentary in the Middle Ages took on two aspects, the Sephardic and the Ashkenazic. The first, Spanish interpretation, developed in a Muslim surrounding, which appreciated secular studies, the sciences, and Arabic literature, much of which it had translated from Greek. These studies made their mark on Bible exegesis, which sought the simple straightforward sense (peshat) of a verse and its grammatical meaning. The Ashkenazic school, however, situated in France and Germany, was firmly anchored in the rabbinic study hall and its exegesis was a continuation of the methods of Midrash and Aggadah as practiced in Mishnah and Talmud. In the beginning of the twelfth century, Ashkenazic commentary in northern France took on a new face. Contact with the outside world, including Christian scholarship, and partial knowledge of general studies, brought the Ashkenazi Jewish commentators to the realization that the Bible, besides being a religious text, was also literature. As literature, many features including the order of biblical pericopes or units attracted attention. The classic commentators, Rashi in France, Ibn Ezra in Toledo and Ramban (Nahmanides) in northern Spain all dealt with biblical order. Order as Meaning cites many cases of sequential arrangement and juxtaposition taken from the rabbinic period as well as from the above three commentators, explaining what there was to learn from such a study

    In den Auseinandersetzungen des 16. Jahrhunderts um Kirche und zentrale Glaubensfragen ist der Diskurs der reformatorischen Bewegungen von einem Bedeutungszuwachs apokalyptischer Deutungsschemata geprägt. Die Kritik an Kirche und kirchlichen Institutionen, aber auch die eigene Position wurden entlang endzeitlicher Deutungen exegetisch legitimiert: Identifikationen von gegenwärtigen und historischen Ereignissen, Personen und Personengruppen anhand apokalyptischer Bilder wurden aus der für die eigene Bewegung beanspruchten Perspektive der Rechtgläubigkeit argumentiert. Die dadurch entstandene apokalyptische Gegenwartsdeutung speiste sich vorrangig aus der Bibel, allerdings wurden auch andere Quellen wie astrologische und visionäre Weissagungen verwendet. Insbesondere die darin manifestierten unterschiedlichen Auffassungen von Exegese, Offenbarung und Prophetie trugen zu einem endzeitlichen Diskurs bei, der zwischen der diskursmächtigen lutherischen Bewegung und marginalisierten reformatorischen Richtungen geführt wurde und Gegenstand dieser diskursanalytischen und kulturwissenschaftlichen Untersuchung ist
