Obwohl ein dauerhafter, allgemeiner Konsens über die Identifizierung der Priesterschrift (P) besteht, gibt es dennoch mehrere offene Fragen im Zusammenhang mit dieser wichtigen literarischen Schicht des Pentateuch. Eine dieser entscheidenden, aber umstrittenen Fragen ist die Datierung und Verortung dieser Texte. Die Beitragenden des vorliegenden Sammelbands versuchen, die priesterlichen Schriften sowohl zeitlich als auch geographisch besser zu verorten. Dabei achten sie auf die Auswahl geeigneter Kriterien und bedenken Aspekte, die in der jüngeren Forschung vernachlässigt wurden, wie etwa die geographischen Angaben und Hinweise auf die materielle Kultur, die in den priesterlichen Texten vorkommen.

The articles in this volume offer an interdisciplinary analysis of the Oracles against the Nations in the Book of Jeremiah, exploring their literary, historical, and theological significance. Bringing together leading international scholars, it integrates biblical exegesis with archaeological and historical research, shedding new light on the political and cultural contexts of these prophetic texts. The book challenges both traditional views (OAN as an irrelevant appendix) as well as modern biases (OAN as Schadenfreude-literature) by demonstrating how these oracles are not mere additions but essential to the prophetic message of Jeremiah. With a strong focus on the historical rooting of the oracles, it provides fresh insights into the complex dynamics between Israel and its neighbouring nations. A key resource for scholars of biblical studies, ancient history, and theology.
