Beskrivning

The articles in this collection demonstrate that a change is taking place in New Testament studies. Throughout the twentieth century, New Testament scholarship primarily worked under the assumption that only two languages, Aramaic and Greek, were in common use in the land of Israel in the first century. The current contributors investigate various areas where increasing linguistic data and changing perspectives have moved Hebrew out of a restricted, marginal status within first-century language use and the impact on New Testament studies. Five articles relate to the general sociolinguistic situation in the land of Israel during the first century, while three articles present literary studies that interact with the language background. The final three contributions demonstrate the impact this new understanding has on the reading of Gospel texts.

Recensioner i media

"[The] collective aim of the authors, to more thoroughly document Hebrew as a living language alongside Aramaic in Second Temple Palestine, has clearly succeeded. [...] This collection of essays should be on the reference shelf and within easy reach of all serious students of the gospels who attempt to encounter the linguistic landscape of first-century Palestine." – Steven Thompson, Avondale College of Higher Education, Cooranbong, Australia, in: RBL 05/2016
