Supplementation and the Study of the Hebrew Bible (Brown Judaic Studies 361)

Explore the role supplementation plays in the development of the Hebrew Bible This new volume includes ten original essays that demonstrate clearly how common, varied, and significant the phenomenon of supplementation in the Hebrew Bible is. Contributors examine instances of supplementation that range from minor additions to aid pronunciation, fill in abbreviations, or clarify ambiguous syntax, to the far more elaborate changes such as interpolations within a work of prose or in a prophetic ot legal text. Scholars also examine supplementation by the addition of an introduction, a conclusion, or an introductory and concluding framework to a particular lyrical, legal, prophetic, or narrative text. Features:
<li>A contribution to the further development of a panbiblical compositional perspective</li> <li>Examples from Psalms, the pentateuchal narratives, the Deuteronomistic History, the Prophets, and legal texts</li>

Animals and the Law in Antiquity (Brown Judaic Studies, 368)

This volume brings together original studies by scholars on a variety of topics at the intersection of animals and the law in antiquity. These studies allow us to begin to develop a comparative perspective on animals and the law in West Asian and Mediterranean antiquity, something that has never been done. Two essays responding to the eight studies in the volume contribute directly to this comparative aim by bringing into relief continuities and discontinuities in the legal status and/or treatment of animals, as well as drawing attention to the most salient points in the essays from a comparative perspective.
