Abstract

Cet ouvrage souhaite introduire à la lecture des livres de la Sagesse. Pour entrer dans le mouvement de la sagesse biblique, et profiter au mieux de ses enseignements, il convient d'entrer dans une expérience de lecture. Cet ouvrage souhaite introduire à la lecture des livres de la Sagesse. Pour entrer dans le mouvement de la sagesse biblique, et profiter au mieux de ses enseignements, il convient d'entrer dans une expérience de lecture.C'est-à-dire dans une attention soutenue à la lettre et à la disposition des livres ; une attention à la manière dont un contenu - une affirmation, la formulation d'une question, le déploiement d'une réalité - reçoit une forme, dans l'écriture. Pour honorer cette visée et cette manière de lire, nous sommes très redevables de ce que nous a transmis Paul Beauchamp. Chaque chapitre s'attache à la lecture de l'un des livres de sagesse.S'intercalent quelques notes du genre interlude, qui traitent d'un aspect transversal plutôt thématique : la politique, l'éducation, le comportement social... Car la sagesse biblique ne se trouve pas seulement dans les livres dits de sagesse.

Abstract

Hebrews seems like unpromising material for feminist interpretation, although it is the only New Testament writing for which female authorship has been seriously posited. Mary Ann Beavis and HyeRan Kim-Cragg highlight the similarities between Hebrews and the book of Wisdom/Sophia, which share cosmological, ethical, historical, and sapiential themes, revealing that Hebrews is in fact a submerged tradition of Sophia-Wisdom. They also tackle the sacrificial Christology of Hebrews, concluding that in its ancient context, far from symbolizing suffering and abjection, sacrifice was understood as celebratory and relational. Contributions from Filipina (Maricel and Marilou Ibita), Jewish (Justin Jaron Lewis), historical (Nancy Calvert-Koyzis), and First Nations (Marie Annharte Baker) perspectives bring additional scholarly, cultural, religious, and experiential wisdom to the commentary.

Abstract

In past decades the Book of Ben Sira, also known as Ecclesiasticus, has attracted a great deal of scholarly attention, both in its different Hebrew and Greek versions, as well as in its Syriac and Latin form.This volume opens with a quick overview of two much discussed topics. Is Ben Sira supposed to be a priest? And in what way does Ben Sira correlate Wisdom and Torah? It is followed by a section in which specific passages are studied. It contains texts relating to Lady Wisdom, the Patriarchs, Elijah, Ben Sira’s rereading of the primeval narratives.The next part is an inquiry into Ben Sira’s use of books from the Hebrew Bible in process of formation and his view of some major theological notions from Deuteronomistic heritage.The last section covers topics such as apocalypticism, friendship, Philo and Ben Sira, Augustine’s sermons on Ben Sira, and a striking type of intertextuality discovered in this writing.

Abstract

"In Scribal Culture in Ben Sira, Lindsey A. Askin examines scribal culture as a framework for analysing features of textual referencing throughout the Book of Ben Sira (c.198-175 BCE), revealing new insights into how Ben Sira wrote his book of wisdom. Although the title of "scribe" is regularly applied to Ben Sira, this designation presents certain interpretive challenges. Through comparative analysis, Askin contextualizes the sage's compositional style across historical, literary, and socio-cultural spheres of operation. New light is shed on Ben Sira's text and early Jewish textual reuse. Drawing upon physical and material evidence of reading and writing, Askin reveals the dexterity and complexity of Ben Sira's sustained textual reuse. Ben Sira's achievement thus demonstrates exemplary, "excellent" writing to a receptive audience"--

Abstract

For the first time, the present commentary brings together all relevant aspects necessary to understand and appreciate this late portion of Old Testament Scripture: textual criticism; detailed philological and literary analysis; the two-fold historical context of the text's Hellenistic environment, on the one hand, and biblical tradition on the other; and ultimately the very innovative theology of the book of Wisdom. Aspects of the book's reception history as well as hermeneutical questions round off the commentary on the text.

Abstract

Il Siracide si caratterizza per l'elevata frequenza della coppia lessicale poverta-ricchezza. Questo binomio si concentra all'interno di pochi brani la cui analisi delinea un contesto segnato da diverse tensioni: conflitti non solo sociali, ma anche politici, religiosi e culturali. Lo sguardo di Ben Sira sulle contraddizioni della sua societa e, da un lato, realista e critico, dall'altro ottimista e fiducioso: egli denuncia l'ingiustizia e rifiuta le soluzioni violente; il superamento delle tensioni richiede piuttosto un'azione educativa nei confronti delle nuove generazioni. I valori raccomandati (prudenza, umilta, solidarieta generosa, salda fiducia in Dio) sono quelli tradizionali della Torah e sono fatti ruotare attorno a due cardini fondamentali: la sapienza e il timore del Signore. Questa profonda fedelta alla tradizione biblica consente a Ben Sira di assimilare alcuni elementi ellenistici senza tradire la fede di Israele nel Dio misericordioso e giusto, schierato in difesa di deboli e oppressi. In questo modo, il suo messaggio attorno al binomio poverta-ricchezza raccoglie l'eredita dell'Antico Testamento e prepara il cambiamento di sensibilita che culminera nella rivelazione cristiana.
