The Hexapla contained very important texts and translations of the Hebrew Scriptures, but unfortunately it was probably destroyed in the seventh century and we possess only fragments of it. This volume systematically treats the questions of Origen's forerunners and heirs and attempts to reconstruct how Origen developed the philological method he received and also how his followers received and innovated his textual work.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50679092871441,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50679093035281,"sku":"NGR9783525500729","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3525500726.jpg?v=1781779262"},{"product_id":"legacy-of-barthelemy-book-adrian-schenker-9783525540626","title":"The Legacy of Barthélemy","description":"Les Devanciers d'Aquila by Dominique Barthelemy (1963) is an epoch-making work on the textual history of the Septuagint. On the basis of his analysis of the Nahal Hever Minor Prophets Scroll, Barthelemy developed his theory of an early Hebraizing revision (so-called kaige revision), designed to bring the traditional text of the Septuagint closer to the Hebrew text, and recognized examples of it in the B-text of books such as Joshua, Judges, and Samuel-Kings. The work of these early Hebraizing revisers resembled the later very literal translation by Aquila; hence the name of the book, the predecessors of Aquila. Textual scholars of today continue in the footsteps of Barthelemy and work on the same questions that were raised in Devanciers: How extensive was the influence of the kaige revision and how can it be recognized? What is the nature of the Lucianic text: when does it represent the Old Greek and when does it give a stylistically revised text? What is the relationship between the kaige revision and Theodotion's revision of the Septuagint?The present volume mainly consists of papers presented at the 50th anniversary symposium of Les Devanciers d'Aquila that was held in connection with the SBL International Meeting in St Andrews, Scotland, in 2013. The papers focus on history of research, case studies on the text of Samuel-Kings (1-4 Kingdoms), and studies on the text-historical position of specific witnesses.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52153845186833,"sku":"NGR9783525540626","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783525540626.jpg?v=1770890347"},{"product_id":"editing-the-greek-psalter-book-felix-albrecht-9783525560945","title":"Editing the Greek Psalter","description":"This collected volume is an indispensable part of any theological and philological library.

By investigating several syntactical phenomena, he describes how the ancient translator transformed his Hebrew source text (Vorlage) into Greek. German description: Die Dissertation ist ein Beitrag zur Ubersetzungs- und Textgeschichte der Samuelbucher. Im Zentrum steht die Arbeitsweise des Septuaginta-Ubersetzers. Sie wird anhand von syntaktischen Phanomenen untersucht, die in einer hohen Zahl von Belegen vorkommen. Es ergibt sich ein auch statistisch abgesichertes Bild seiner Ubersetzungstechnik, das durch Vergleiche mit anderen Ubersetzern der LXX weiter profiliert wird. Wo es das Material ermoglicht, wird die Analyse auf die spateren Rezensionen ausgeweitet. Besonders im Bereich der griechischen Tempora ergeben sich dadurch neue Einsichten in die Rezensionsprinzipien der Kaige-, aber auch der lukianischen Rezension. Die Beobachtungen der Ubersetzungs- und Rezensionsweise werfen ein Licht auch auf die Textgeschichte der Samuelbucher. Da es fur die Samuelbucher umfassende Funde aus Qumran gibt, kann sie auf Basis einer aussergewohnlich guten Quellenlage rekonstruiert werden. Im Ergebnis wird bestatigt und vertieft, was fruhere Untersuchungen gezeigt haben: Die Vorlage der LXX stellt die alteste uns zugangliche Textform dar (2. Jh. v.Chr.). 4QSama steht der LXX nahe, ist jedoch junger (1. Jh. v.Chr.). Der Masoretische Text reprasentiert deutlich die spateste Stufe der Textentwicklung (1. Jh. n.Chr.). Ein Vergleich der unterschiedlichen Stufen lasst die theologischen Interessen insbesondere der letzten Bearbeitungsstufe (Masoretischer Text) hervortreten.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52153999130897,"sku":"NGR9783525536940","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783525536940.jpg?v=1757623893"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/de-septuaginta-investigationes-book-series.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
