Abstract

The book analyses the Mesopotamian demon Pazuzu both from an archaeological and a philological point of view. Based on a catalogue of all published, as well as some yet unpublished representations, its iconography, the chronology, the find spots, and the usage of the objects are examined. With transcriptions, translations and commentary on the Pazuzu incantations and the references to this demon in other texts. The combination of the archaeological and philological evidence results in a new and unexpected picture of Pazuzu.

Abstract

"In Psalm 91 and Demonic Menace Gerrit Vreugdenhil offers a thorough analysis of the text, structure and genre of Psalm 91. Already in its earliest interpretations, Psalm 91 has been associated with the demonic realm. The use of this psalm on ancient amulets and in magic texts calls for an explanation. Examining the psalms images of threat from a cognitive science perspective, Vreugdenhil shows that many of these terms carry associations with sorcery and magic, incantations and curses, diseases and demonic threat. The psalm takes demonic threat seriously, but also draws attention to the protection offered by JHWH. Finally, the author proposes an outline of the situational context in which Psalm 91 might have functioned." --

Abstract

Der vorderasiatische Dämon Samanu, der im Ägyptischen auch Achu genannt wird, ist durch zahlreiche Quellen in Mesopotamien und Ägypten belegt. Die verschiedenen Aspekte des Dämons - er ist als Leiden von Göttern, Menschen, Tieren, Pflanzen und Flüssen belegt - werden analysiert und potentielle Identifizierungsmöglichkeiten aus einer Jetztzeitperspektive vorgestellt. Ferner liegt ein Fokus auf dem Wissenstransfers dieses Wesens aus dem Vorderen Orient nach Ägypten. Für die Publikation wurden alle bislang bekannten Texte in sumerischer, akkadischer und ägyptischer Sprache zusammengestellt und diese werden in Umschrift, Übersetzung und mit Kommentar präsentiert. Die ägyptischen Texte werden zusätzlich in Hieroglyphen wiedergegeben."

Abstract

This collection presents new research in angelology, giving special attention to the otherworldly beings known as the Watchers who are able to move between heaven and earth. According to the pseudepigraphic Book of the Watchers (1 Enoch 1-36), these angels descend to mate with women. The collection begins by examining Watchers traditions in biblical and non-biblical writings (e.g., Gen 6:1-4, the Qumran Hodayot, Book of Jubilees, and Book of Revelation). The collection also surveys Watchers traditions among late antique writings, including the Apocryphon of John, Manichean and Islamic writings, testamentary literature, the Pseudo-Clementines, and medieval Scholastic texts.
