Žalmové parafráze Jiřího Strejce / Versified Psalter by Jiří Strejc - critical editionMatějec, Tomáš January 2020 (has links)
The history of European psalm paraphrases begins in late ancient Greek literature. Greek interest in combining poetic content and metre is documented in the paraphrase of Psalm 102 from the 4th century preserved in the Codex visionum and the paraphrase of the whole psalter from the mid-5th century called Metaphrasis psalmorum or "Homeric psalter", both composed in dactylic hexameters. They share some features with early modern paraphrases: use of artistic language, application of christological interpretation, relation to singing, various approaches in terms of the degree of dependence on the biblical text. The Hebrew text of the Psalms shows no signs of the metric arrangement that is characteristic of traditional European poetry. Some Hebrew verses tend to be regularly organized on a tonic basis, but this arrangement is not binding or regular, unlike the standard of traditional European poetry. In the European environment, however, there has been since ancient times a strong conviction that the Hebrew verse is regularly arranged on a quantitative principle, and this belief lasted until the early modern period. Renaissance translations of ancient poetry into vernacular languages use syllabic or accentual-syllabic verse, and the same type of verse is also used in early modern psalm paraphrases when...

"The Breadth, and Length, and Depth, and Height" of Early Modern English Biblical TranslationsMarsalene E Robbins (9148919) 29 July 2020 (has links)
<p>The significance of early modern Bible translation cannot be
overstated, but its “breadth, and length, and depth, and height” have often
been understated (King James Version, Ephesians 3.18). In this study, I use
three representative case studies of very different types of translation to
create a more dynamic understanding of actual Bible translation practices in
early modern England. These studies examine not only the translations
themselves but also the ways that the translation choices they contain interacted
with early modern readers. </p><p><br></p>
<p>The
introductory Chapter One outlines the history of translation and of Bible
translation more specifically. It also summarizes the states of the fields into
which this work falls, Translation Studies and Religion and Literature. It
articulates the overall scope and goals of the project, which are not to do something
entirely new, per se, but rather to use a new framework to update the work that
has already been done on early modern English Bible translation. Chapter Two
presents a case study in formal interlingual translation that analyzes a
specific word-level translation choice in the King James Version (KJV) to
demonstrate the politics involved even in seemingly minor translation choices.
Chapter Three treats the intermedial translation of the Book of Psalms in the
Sternhold and Hopkins psalter. By using the language and meter of the populace
and using specific translation choices to accommodate the singing rather than
reading of the Psalms, the Sternhold and Hopkins psalter facilitates a more
active and participatory experience for popular worshippers in early modern
England. Finally, Chapter Four analyzes John Milton’s literary translation in <i>Paradise
Lost </i>and establishes it as a spiritual and cultural authority along the
lines of formal interlingual translations. If we consider this translation as
an authoritative one, Milton’s personal theology expressed therein becomes a
potential theological model for readers as well. </p>
<p><br></p><p>By creating
a more flexible understanding of what constitutes an authoritative translation
in early modern England, this study expands the possibilities for the
theological, interpretive, and practical applications of biblical texts, which touched
not only early modern readers but left their legacies for modern readers of all
kinds as well. </p>

Le roi-prêtre Elohim : exploration de la redynamisation sacerdotale du portrait royal divin en Gn 1,1–2,4a à l’aune de son contexte postexiliqueRoy-Turgeon, Olivier 08 1900 (has links)
Le récit de création de Genèse 1,1–2,4a – récit d’introduction de la Bible hébraïque – n’a jamais cessé d’animer et de stimuler les esprits et a laissé une forte empreinte sur la culture populaire. En effet, malgré son histoire millénaire et sa pluie de commentaires, ce récit continue, encore de nos jours, à susciter des discussions et des débats sur des enjeux toujours plus pointus et complexes. Dans la foulée, l’objectif général de ce mémoire est de dégager et d’examiner une des dimensions moins explorées de ce récit, à savoir ses vestiges de royauté (divine) et, par extension, leur possible reconfiguration sacerdotale à la période postexilique.
Pour y parvenir, des méthodes littéraires et historiques, notamment l’analyse narrative et l’histoire comparée, seront mises à profit tout au long du mémoire. Il s’agira, d’abord, d’investiguer la caractérisation du roi YHWH dans certains psaumes (Ps 47; 74; 89; 104). Ces premiers éléments de l’étude serviront de comparatif pour la suite de l’enquête. Je procéderai par la suite à l’excavation de traces de la royauté divine en Genèse 1, le récit phare de ce mémoire. Finalement, les deux derniers chapitres me permettront d’insister, d’une part, sur la contextualisation historique postexilique de cet écrit, en particulier l’influence sacerdotale, et d’autre part, de dégager les principaux éléments de la caractérisation « royale » d’Elohim en Gn 1, en soulignant toute l’originalité de leur configuration sacerdotale par rapport aux Psaumes. / The creation story of Genesis 1.1–2.4a – the introductory story of the Hebrew Bible – has never ceased to captivate and thus left a strong imprint on popular culture. Despite its millennial history and its multitude of commentaries, this story continues, even today, to spark discussions and debates on ever more specific and complex issues. The general objective of this dissertation is to examine a rarely explored dimension of this narrative, namely the traces of (divine) kingship found in its midst and the potential priestly reconfiguration of this royal dimension in the postexilic period.
To do so, literary and historical methods, including narrative criticism and comparative history, will be used throughout the dissertation. First, I will investigate the characterization of king YHWH in various psalms (Ps 47; 74; 89; 104). The rest of the investigation will build on these first steps of the study. I will then proceed to excavate traces and remains of divine kingship in Genesis 1. The last two chapters will allow me, on the one hand, to address the historical context of this text, in the post-exilic period, as well as the important priestly influence on Gen 1; on the other, to identify the main elements of the "royal" characterization of Elohim in Gen 1 while highlighting and acknowledging their priestly revitalization when compared to the Psalms.

The use of the Psalms in 1 Peter : an exegetical and hermeneutical study / Gregory Yorath PhillipsPhillips, Gregory Yorath January 2013 (has links)
advancements in Old Testament and New Testament Studies. For example, new
knowledge is available on the variant versions of the Septuagint and application of
the literary concept of intertextuality has yielded significant results in recent biblical
scholarship. However, considering that 1 Peter arguably uses the Old Testament in
the most condensed manner of all the New Testament writings, it is surprising that
relatively few recent studies have been carried out on the use of the Old Testament
in 1 Peter.
As a partial corrective to this situation, this in-depth study is focused on the use of
the Psalms in 1 Peter, utilizing an integrated hermeneutical procedure that combines
traditional grammatical-historical analysis with the state of the art on New Testament
use of the Old Testament. The aim is to clarify the hermeneutical implications of the
use of the Psalms in 1 Peter for Old Testament and New Testament exegesis within
the Reformed tradition today.
Thus, a comprehensive exegetical approach is systematically applied to each
pericope of 1 Peter and to every relevant Psalm passage in order to establish a valid
foundation for understanding how the author interprets the Psalms and how the
Psalm references function within the argument of 1 Peter.
In addition, intertextual resonance is considered as an effective means to enhance
understanding of the function and effect of Psalm references as intended by the
author, and to determine the possible unintended effect of Psalm references upon
the addressees and later readers. Furthermore, consideration of reader response
sometimes makes it possible to identify echoes of Psalm passages not likely
intended by the author, but nevertheless, very likely to have come to the minds of the
recipients with significant effect.
One conclusion of this study is that there is no compelling evidence that the author’s
interpretation of the Psalms ignored the intended meaning of the Psalm in its own
context, or merely reflected contemporary Second Temple interpretations.
Furthermore, it has been possible to refine the criteria for identifying and classifying
Psalm allusions rather than merely following broad, predetermined criteria. Thus, a
distinction is made between specific allusion, in which case the author’s argument
depends upon recognition of specific Psalm passages, and general allusion, in which
case the author’s argument depends upon a concept recognizably derived from the
Psalms but not limited by the wording of specific references.
This study also demonstrates that the use of the Psalms in 1 Peter is based upon a
strong sense of solidarity with believers of the past, especially as they expressed
their responses to God in the context of suffering. In particular, compared with other
New Testament writings, 1 Peter stands out for the fact that the majority of its Psalm
allusions are used for the purpose of developing and reapplying significant themes. Thus, 1 Peter provides compelling reason for present-day interpreters to view theme
development as a valid and effective way to apply the Psalms to the circumstances
of Christian believers as they face the challenge of living faithfully in new contexts of
suffering and persecution. / PhD (New Testament), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2014

The Importance of Hebrew for Biblical SpiritualitySpira, Seamus David Ben-Moshe 06 1900 (has links)
The thesis of this dissertation is to explore the importance of Hebrew as contained in the Old Testament or Hebrew Canon, for a grasp of the spirituality or spiritualities of the people we encounter in these texts. Furthermore, to gauge the continued and extended importance of this language knowledge as it pertains to contemporary spirituality or spiritualities based upon these scriptures. This will be done with the laity and academia in mind and hence we will study these spiritualities as they pertain both to experience and academic enquiry. We will also explore the possible personal and societal transformation, which could result from such an investigation. In view of this, we will limit our scope to three test psalms all from Book I of the Psalter; and our assessment of the importance of Hebrew for Biblical Spirituality will be based on only three key areas, namely language, exegesis and continued meaning. / Christian Spirituality / M.

Wisdom and salvation history in the wisdom Psalms / by Hyung Guen SimSim, Hyung Guen January 2008 (has links)
This dissertation is an exploration of the relationship of wisdom to salvation history in the book of Psalms. The notional starting point of this thesis is a conviction that there might be a juncture at which the two themes converge because in certain psalms such as Psalm 78, the Israelite concept of salvation appears to have a close relationship with the wisdom theme. In the history of Psalm interpretation so far, the concept of wisdom psalm has not been properly dealt with due to scholastic difficulty in ascertaining the clear criteria of a genre. The process of scrutinizing the history of interpretation showed that the Psalms in their final form were far more purposeful than were previously understood. The major guiding principles of the method employed are: (1) 'the canonical approach' of Brevard Childs; (2) 'the canonical criticism' of James Sanders; (3) 'the canonical process approach' of Bruce Waltke; (4) 'the Christo-canonical approach' of Jerry E. Shepherd; and (5) 'the communito-canonical approach' of deClaissé-Walford. This thesis made use of these methodological principles by attempting to read the Psalter from the beginning to the end, and by focusing mainly on the final stage of the Psalter proposed by B. Waltke as the third stage, or the final and complete Old Testament canon associated with the Second Temple, and by purposefully limiting the scope of our study to around the post-exilic period.
Having dealt with the issue of classifying the wisdom psalm, the presence of the wisdom motif in many psalms which do not fall into the wisdom category serves to add a didactic dimension to the entire Psalter. In so doing, we reach a conclusion that what we are dealing with is not merely the wisdom psalms within the Psalms, but 'the wisdom Psalter' as a literary unit. Then, it can be said that the Psalter is not merely an anthology of individual psalms used for cult, but was meant to be read also as a source of min , an instruction. This means that every psalm in the Psalter has pedagogical potential, which may have been the ostensible intent of the editor(s) at the final stage of the formation of the Psalter.
On this premise, this study attempts to set up a strategy to read the Psalms from the beginning to the end from book I up to book V as a wisdom Psalter, with a particular focus on how the wisdom motif relates to the salvation history motif. The question did not merely concern their interpretation as disjointed pieces, but also what their presence in the book of Psalter meant in terms of the relationship between wisdom and salvation history. This means that the study is influenced less by a historical and form critical approach, but more from a literary and canonical perspective. / Thesis (Ph.D. (Old Testament))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2008.
