Das Moselied gilt wegen seiner kompositorisch zentralen Position am Ende des Pentateuch und seiner poetischen Form als theologischer Spitzentext. Die Autorin fragt nach der Konstruktion des Gottesbildes durch die drei zentralen Metaphern Fels, Geier und Eltern. Nach einer Analyse der Gesamtstruktur des Liedes untersucht sie die Metaphern in zwei Schritten. Dabei bildet die Einordnung der Metaphern in den literarischen Kontext der Hebräischen Bibel den Hintergrund der semantischen und intertextuellen Untersuchung der Metaphern im Moselied. Die Studie ermöglicht damit – jenseits der verbreiteten Dichotomie von »positiven« und »negativen « Gottesbildern – einen differenzierteren Blick auf die Spannungen und Komplexitäten des alttestamentlichen Gottesbildes.Due to its compositionally central position at the end of the Pentateuch and its poetical form, the Song of Moses is counted among the seminal theological texts of the Old Testament. The author explores the construction of the image of God by analysing the three central metaphors of the rock, vulture, and parents. A synchronic and diachronic analysis of the overall structure is followed by an analysis of the metaphors in the light of the history of motives, which places it in the literary context of the Hebrew Bible, as well as opening up the perspective of deutercanonical and Qumran literature, and taking into account iconographic and textual sources from the Ancient Near East. The purpose is to offer a differentiated consideration of the tensions and complexities of the Old Testament image of God beyond the dichotomy of “positive” and “negative”.

According to Deuteronomy 7, God commands Israel to exterminate the indigenous population of Canaan. In The Command to Exterminate the Canaanites: Deuteronomy 7, Arie Versluis offers an analysis and evaluation of this command. Following an exegesis of the chapter, the historical background, possible motives and the place of the nations of Canaan in the Hebrew Bible are investigated.The theme of religiously inspired violence continues to be a topic of interest. The present volume discusses the consequences of the command to exterminate the Canaanites for the Old Testament view of God and for the question whether the Bible legitimizes violence in the present. Finally, the author shows how he reads this text as a Christian theologian.

Much can be learned about a translation's linguistic and cultural context by studying it as a text, a literary artifact of the culture that produced it. However, its nature as a translation warrants a careful approach, one that pays attention to the process by which its various features came about. In Characterizing Old Greek Deuteronomy as an Ancient Translation, Jean Maurais develops a framework derived from Descriptive Translation Studies to bring both these aspects in conversation. He then outlines how the Deuteronomy translator went about his task and provides a characterization of the work as a literary product.

This commentary on Deuteronomion is based on Codex Alexandrinus, the single best complete witness to the Old Greek. It features a new transcription of the manuscript with a fresh translation that treats Deuteronomion as a sacred text that would have been read, studied, and cherished in a worshipping community. Notations of important variants with the other key manuscripts, such as p848, p963, and B (Vaticanus), appear regularly. This commentary represents an interpretative adventure, intentionally giving room for varied ancient reader-responses, and accordingly it functions within several literary spaces. First, it recognizes the substantial intratextual features between the book’s narrative framing and its legal materials. Deuteronomion is also read in its hypotextual relation with the Pentateuch’s other narratives and legal materials, chiefly within Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers. Sensitivity to the Greek linguistic climate, the so-called koine Greek, is another space. Finally, and most distinctively, this commentary adds to its reading the many voices who read and used Deuteronomy, in either Hebrew or Greek forms, from the late Second Temple Period.
