Description:

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:

  • A contribution to the further development of a panbiblical compositional perspective
  • Examples from Psalms, the pentateuchal narratives, the Deuteronomistic History, the Prophets, and legal texts
