| aramaic targums english: The Aramaic Bible Derek R. G. Beattie, Martin McNamara, 1994-08 The twenty-six essays in this volume represent the papers read at the international Conference on the Aramiac Bible held in Dublin (1992). The purpose of the Conference was to bring together leading specialists on the Targums and related topics to discuss issues in the light of recent developments, for instance Second Temple interpretation of the Scriptures, Qumran Literature, targumic and Palestinian Aramaic, new Genizah manuscripts, Jewish tradition, Origen's Hexapla, Pseudepigrapha, Apocrypha and the Christian West. The papers are arranged under seven headings: Targum Texts and Editions; The Aramaic Language: The Targums and Jewish Biblical Interpretation; Targums of the Pentateuch; Targums of the Hagiographa; Targums and New Testament; Jewish Traditions and Christian Writings. The international team, drawn from nine countries, is as follows (following the order of the papers); M. Klein, S. Reif, L. Diez Merino, R. Gordon, M. McNamara, S.A. Kaufman, E. Cook, M. Hengel, O. Betz, A. Shinan, J. Ribera, B. Grossfeld, P.V.M. Flesher, G. Boccaccini, M. Maher, R. Hayward, R. Syren, P.S. Alexander, D.R.G. Beattie, C. Mangan, B. Ego, M. Wilcox, B. Chilton, G.J. Norton, B.

| aramaic targums english: The Targums Paul V.M. Flesher, Bruce D. Chilton, 2011-08-25 The value and significance of the targums—translations of the Hebrew Bible into Aramaic, the language of Palestinian Jews for centuries following the Babylonian Exile—lie in their approach to translation: within a typically literal rendering of a text, they incorporate extensive exegetical material, additions, and paraphrases that reveal important information about Second Temple Judaism, its interpretation of its bible, and its beliefs. This remarkable survey introduces critical knowledge and insights that have emerged over the past forty years, including targum manuscripts discovered this century and targums known in Aramaic but only recently translated into English. Prolific scholars Flesher and Chilton guide readers in understanding the development of the targums; their relationship to the Hebrew Bible; their dates, language, and place in the history of Christianity and Judaism; and their theologies and methods of interpretation. “With clear presentation of current research and the issues involved, including the Targums and the New Testament, and a rich bibliography, this is the most complete—and up-to-date—introduction to the Targums. An outstanding, highly recommended achievement.” Martin McNamara, Emeritus Professor of Scripture, Milltown Institute, Dublin, Ireland |
| aramaic targums english: The Targum of the Minor Prophets , 2024-05-15 Although the term minor prophets is a familiar one in English Bible translations, it is not a felicitous one, since it applies as much to Hosea as to Haggai and to Amos as to Obadiah. The Targum offers no such pecking order. Nuggets of importance are as likely to be found in a Targumized minor prophet as a major one. Included in this volume are the books of Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. The authors' apparatus in the introduction provides the translational characteristics, theology, life-setting, text and versions, language, rabbinic citations and parallels, dating, manuscripts, and bibliography. A series of indices is also included. |
| aramaic targums english: Targum Chronicles and Its Place Among the Late Targums Leeor Gottlieb, 2020-06-08 Targum Chronicles and Its Place Among the Late Targums heralds a paradigm shift in the understanding of many of the Jewish-Aramaic translations of individual biblical books and their origins. Leeor Gottlieb provides the most extensive study of Targum Chronicles to date, leading to conclusions that challenge long-accepted truisms with regard to the origin of Targums. This book’s trail of evidence convincingly points to the composition of Targums in a time and place that was heretofore not expected to be the provenance of these Aramaic gems of biblical interpretation. This study also offers detailed comparisons to other Targums and fascinating new explanations for dozens of aggadic expansions in Targum Chronicles, tying them to their rabbinic sources. |
| aramaic targums english: The Targum of Psalms , 2024-05-15 This work provides the first translation into English of the Targum of Psalms, together with an introduction, a critical apparatus listing variants from several manuscripts and their printed editions, and annotations. |

| aramaic targums english: The Aramaic and Palestinian Targums Zen Garcia, 2014-02-13 Targum meaning translation references the various language transliterations of the original Hebrew Torah, which were commissioned created by Temple elders. The Aramaic and Palestinian versions printed here are acknowledged to be the oldest and most widely used renderings of the ancient language translations of the original Hebrew Torah. Though they are accepted to date back to at least the first century CE, I believe them to be half a millennia older as they first came into being to accommodate the Israelites assimilation of Aramaic when exiled to Babylon in 597 BCE. It was during the 70 years of that diaspora that Aramaic became the predominant colloquial language and accepted vernacular of use by the Hebraic peoples. During this 70 years of assimilation, the Israelite's use of Hebrew as lexicon dwindled from being the primary dialect of everyday conversation, to being one of mostly scholastic application utilized intellectually by the priestly class. |
| aramaic targums english: Tanakh & Talmud Various Authors, 2023-12-16 The Tanakh & Talmud is an essential collection of ancient Jewish texts that provide insights into the religious and ethical teachings of Judaism. The Tanakh, also known as the Hebrew Bible, includes the Torah, Prophets, and Writings, serving as a foundation for Jewish theology. The Talmud, a compilation of rabbinic teachings and discussions, offers additional commentary and interpretations of Jewish laws and traditions. This book blends narrative storytelling with legal analysis, making it a valuable resource for understanding Jewish literature and culture during antiquity. By studying these texts, readers gain a deeper understanding of the historical and spiritual significance of Judaism. The Various Authors of the Tanakh & Talmud were scholars and scribes who dedicated their lives to preserving and interpreting Jewish sacred texts. They aimed to pass down the teachings of their ancestors and contribute to the ongoing dialogue surrounding Jewish law and ethics. Their collective wisdom continues to influence Jewish thought and practice to this day. I highly recommend the Tanakh & Talmud to anyone interested in exploring the foundational texts of Judaism. It provides valuable insights into the religious beliefs, moral values, and legal principles that have shaped Jewish communities for centuries. |

| aramaic targums english: Targum Onkelos - The Official Babylonian Aramaic Version of the Torah Onkelos, 2024-09-17 Targum Onkelos is the accepted ancient Jewish translation of the Torah into Aramaic. This edition contains the Aramaic Targum in a literal English translation. Apart from the Greek LXX, the Targum Onkelos is one of the earliest Jewish translations of the Pentateuch and is essential for understanding the ancient Jewish views on the Bible. Targum Onkelos is the primary Jewish Aramaic targum (translation) of the Torah, accepted as an authoritative translated text of the Pentateuch. It is said to have been written in the early second century CE., although scholars believe that it was later edited in Babylon in the 4th-5th centuries C.E. Examples of important differences between Targum Onkelos and the Masoretic Text may be found in e.g.: Genesis 2:7 Targum Onkelos: ...and it became in Adam a Discoursing Spirit vs. Masoretic Text ...and man became a living soul. Genesis 3:5 Targum Onkelos: ...and you shall be as the Great-ones vs. Masoretic Text ...and you shall be like gods. Genesis 3:15 Targum Onkelos: ...He will remember thee, what thou didst to him (at) from the beginning, and thou shalt be observant unto him at the end. vs. Masoretic Text ...he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel. Such differences are found in key-passages throughout the Torah and aids our understanding of the Jewish interpretation of the Pentateuch. |
| aramaic targums english: The Targum of Ruth Derek Robert George Beattie, J. Stanley McIvor, 1994 One approach to Chronicles would suggest that it was not considered an altogether vital component in the canon, but later it came to play a specific interpretative role. Others suggest that it came to be regarded as the authorized version of the history of Israel. In the Jewish liturgical tradition the Book of Ruth is read at the festival of Shavuot, or Pentecost, and it may be conjectured that the Targum originated in conjunction with this practice. The Targum of Ruth exists in a large number of manuscripts; the eight used in the present work are of European provenance. |
| aramaic targums english: Targum and New Testament Martin McNamara, 2011 The relevance of the Targums (Aramaic translations of the Hebrew Bible) for the understanding of the New Testament has been a matter of dispute over the past three hundred years, principally by reason of the late date of the Targum manuscripts and the nature of the Aramaic. The debate has become more focused by reason of the Qumran finds of pre-Christian Aramaic documents (1947) and the identification of a complete text of the Palestinian Targum of the Pentateuch in the Vatican Library (Codex Neofiti, 1956). Martin McNamara traces the history of the debate down to our own day and the annotated translation of all the Targums into English. He studies the language situation (Aramaic and Greek) in New Testament Palestine and the interpretation of the Scriptures in the Targums, with concepts and language similar to the New Testament. Against this background relationships between the Targums and the New Testament are examined. A way forward is suggested by regarding the tell-like structure of the Targums (with layers from different ages) and a continuum running through for certain texts. |
| aramaic targums english: The Targum of Lamentations , 2024-05-15 This work provides a definitive translation into English of the Targum of Lamentations, based on a critical reading of all the extant versions, with textual annotations and extensive notes. An appendix offers, in addition, a translation and annotation of the Yemenite version. |
| aramaic targums english: Beautiful and Terrible Things Christian M. M. Brady, 2020-09-01 Bible scholar Christian Brady, an expert on Old Testament lament, was as prepared as a person could be for the death of a child—which is to say, not nearly well enough. When his eight-year-old son died suddenly from a fast-moving blood infection, Brady heard the typical platitudes about accepting God's will and knew that quiet acceptance was not the only godly way to grieve. With deep faith, knowledge of Scripture, and the wisdom that comes only from experience, Brady guides readers grieving losses and setbacks of all kinds in voicing their lament to God, reflecting on the nature of human existence, and persevering in hope. Brady finds that rather than an image of God managing every event and action in our lives, the biblical account describes the very real world in which we all live, a world full of hardship and calamity that often comes unbidden and unmerited. Yet, it also is a world into which God lovingly intrudes to bring comfort, peace, and grace. |

| aramaic targums english: Targums Neofiti 1 and Pseudo-Jonathan: Numbers Martin McNamara, 2024-04-24 It is generally recognized that the Book of Numbers is one of the least unified books of the Bible. It is a collection of censuses, laws, and traditions concerning the sojourn of the people of Israel in the wilderness and of the first conquests of the territories promised to Israel. Yet it also carries narrative of notable events and lessons. Both aspects of Numbers benefit from their development in these targums. |
| aramaic targums english: Diversity and Rabbinization Gavin McDowell , Ron Naiweld , Daniel Stökl Ben Ezra, 2021-04-30 This volume contains Hebrew and Syriac text. Please, check that your e-reader supports texts set in left-to-right direction before purchasing the epub and azw3 editions of the book. This volume is dedicated to the cultural and religious diversity in Jewish communities from Late Antiquity to the Early Middle Age and the growing influence of the rabbis within these communities during the same period. Drawing on available textual and material evidence, the fourteen essays presented here, written by leading experts in their fields, span a significant chronological and geographical range and cover material that has not yet received sufficient attention in scholarship. The volume is divided into four parts. The first focuses on the vantage point of the synagogue; the second and third on non-rabbinic Judaism in, respectively, the Near East and Europe; the final part turns from diversity within Judaism to the process of rabbinization as represented in some unusual rabbinic texts. Diversity and Rabbinization is a welcome contribution to the historical study of Judaism in all its complexity. It presents fresh perspectives on critical questions and allows us to rethink the tension between multiplicity and unity in Judaism during the first millennium CE. L’École Pratique des Hautes Études has kindly contributed to the publication of this volume. |

| aramaic targums english: Targums Neofiti 1 and Pseudo-Jonathan: Leviticus , 2024-04-24 The importance of Leviticus for the Jews of the post-biblical period cannot be exaggerated. Leviticus contains laws which regulated almost all aspects of communal and individual life. These targums shed light on how Leviticus was understood and its laws practiced. |
| aramaic targums english: Targums Neofiti 1 and Pseudo-Jonathan: Exodus Martin McNamara, 2024-04-26 The Book of Exodus speaks of central events in Jewish self-understanding: the Exodus from Egypt, the covenant with Moses, and the giving of the Law. It is part narrative, part religious law. This translation of the Palestinian Targums of Exodus will assist in understanding this biblical book which is, in itself, an elaborate redaction of the Jewish faith. |

| aramaic targums english: The Two Targums of Esther Bernard Grossfeld, 2024-05-15 What is called the Magillat Esther (Scroll of Esther) is part of the biblical group of books in the Hagiographa known as the Five Megillot, designating Esther, the Scrolls of Canticles, Ruth, Lamentations, and Ecclesiastes. These five scrolls play an integral part in Jewish liturgy next to the Pentateuch; and yet Esther (as well as others of these five) had difficulty being included in the Hebrew canon as sacred Scripture. |

Vol. 2 Alexander Sperber, 2012-10-19 In 1924, Professor Sperber graduated from Bonn University with a dissertation on Das Propheten-Targum in seinem Verhältnis zum masoretischen Text. He was then invited to prepare a critical edition of the Targum.

The first part of the Bible in Aramaic appeared in 1959. |
| aramaic targums english: The Jewish Targums and John's Logos Theology John Ronning, 2010-02-01 At the beginning of his gospel, John refers to Jesus Christ as the Logos--the Word. John Ronning makes a case that the Jewish Targums--interpretive translations of the Old Testament into Aramaic that were read in synagogues--hold the key to understanding John's Logos title. Examining numerous texts in the fourth gospel in the light of the Targums, Ronning shows how connecting the Logos with the targumic Memra (word) unlocks the meaning of a host of theological themes that run throughout the Gospel of John. |
| aramaic targums english: The Scandal of a Divine Messiah Brian J. Crawford, 2024-12-30 In this groundbreaking book, Brian J. Crawford navigates the complex intellectual landscape that has traditionally separated Jews and Christians. His focus is on a scandalous claim: God became a man as Jesus of Nazareth. Since the Middle Ages, Jewish philosophers have said such an idea is impossible and absurd, and Jewish mystics have said the idea is redundant, for all things are inhabited by divine sparks. By critically examining the philosophical underpinnings of the Maimonidean and Kabbalistic thought that has shaped Jewish theology, Crawford constructs a compelling case for the incarnation that is grounded in the Hebrew Scriptures, consistent with history, informed by science, and illuminated by philosophical inquiry. Included within is a deep interaction with Maimonides’s Guide to the Perplexed, the Jewish mystical tradition, historical Christian orthodoxy, and Messianic Jewish theology. This landmark study promises to reinvigorate Jewish-Christian discourse on the nature of God, the Jewishness of the Trinity and the incarnation, and the role of philosophy in Judaism and Christianity. |

| aramaic targums english: Old Testament Exegesis, Fourth Edition Douglas Stuart, 2009-03-19 For years, Douglas Stuart's Old Testament Exegesis has been one of the most popular ways to learn how to perform exegesis--the science and art of interpreting biblical texts properly for understanding as well as proclamation. Completely updated and substantially expanded, this new edition includes scores of newer resources, a new configuration of the format for the exegesis process, and an entirely new section explaining where to find and how to use the latest electronic and online resources for doing biblical research. Stuart provides guidance for full exegesis as well as for a quicker approach to provide information specifically tailored to the task of preaching. A glossary of terms explains the sometimes bewildering language of biblical scholarship, and a list of frequent errors guides the student in avoiding common mistakes. No exegetical guide for the Old Testament has been more widely used in training ministers and students to be faithful, careful interpreters of Scripture. |

| aramaic targums english: The Priesthood in Targum Pseudo-Jonathan Beverly Mortensen, 2022-11-07 This book analyzes Targum Pseudo-Jonathan’s unique aspects among Palestinian targums: namely, its expansions that find no targumic parallels. It constitutes a source analysis, which focuses upon PJ’s predominant source: PJu. This source, when viewed apart from the rest of the targum, exhibits overwhelming interest in and attention to the Priesthood, in all of its aspects. The book examines PJu's treatment of The Cosmic Importance of the Inherited Role, Required Behavior, Ritual Matters and Economics of the Sacrificial System. It addresses PJu's Need to Keep the People United behind the Priesthood, its catalogueing of Esoteria, and listing of Jobs outside the Temple: Calendar Keeper, Geographer, Legal Expert and Judge. The detailed information and analysis in the appendices will support extensive further research. The print edition is available as a set of two volumes (9789004145825). |

| aramaic targums english: Journal of Biblical and Theological Studies, Issue 7.1 Daniel S. Diffey, Ryan A. Brandt, Justin McLendon, 2023-09-21 The Journal of Biblical and Theological Studies (JBTS) is an academic journal focused on the fields of Bible and Theology from an inter-denominational point of view. The journal is comprised of an editorial board of scholars that represent several academic institutions throughout the world. JBTS is concerned with presenting high-level original scholarship in an approachable way. Academic journals are often written by scholars for other scholars. They are technical in nature, assuming a robust knowledge of the field. There are fewer journals that seek to introduce biblical and theological scholarship that is also accessible to students. JBTS seeks to provide high-level scholarship and research to both scholars and students, which results in original scholarship that is readable and accessible. As an inter-denominational journal JBTS is broadly evangelical. We accept contributions in all theological disciplines from any evangelical perspective. In particular, we encourage articles and book reviews within the fields of Old Testament, New Testament, Biblical Theology, Church History, Systematic Theology, Practical Theology, Philosophical Theology, Philosophy, and Ethics. |

| aramaic targums english: Targum Jonathan of the Former Prophets , 2024-05-15 The attribution, by the Babylonian Talmud, of this Targum to Jonathan ben Uzziel is suspect on several counts: among others, the silence concerning Jonathan in the parallel passage in the Palestinian Talmud, and the fanciful suggestion that Onkelos=Aquila and Jonathan=Theodotion. The attribution, therefore, is not to be taken as historical fact. The Talmud may have been attempting to enhance the authority of the Targum by claiming authorship by a disciple of Hillel, which Jonathan was. It is generally agreed that the author of the Targum Jonathan is unknown; in fact, it is preferable to consider multiple authorship. For while language and translation techniques are uniform, there is variety from book to book. |
| aramaic targums english: Targum Jerusalem Tov Rose, 2016-01-23 The title accurately designates the Palestinian provenance of this Aramaic version of the Torah (though Jerusalemite should not be taken literally, since the city of Jerusalem did not exist as a place of Jewith habitation at the time that this text was composed). In light of the discovery of many manuscripts containing similar works, it can be recognized that the Targum Yerushalmi that appears in the Mikra'ot Gedolot is but one representative of a larger family of Aramaic texts that are designated in the scholarly literature as Fragmentary Targums. Dates: Although the known manuscripts of these Targums are from the 11th-13th century, it appears that their contents originated hundreds of years earlier. Place: Israel Description: The Targum Yerushalmi does not provide a complete Aramaic translation of the Torah, but is confined to specific verses (or sometimes just individual phrases or words). There is no evidence that this Targum was intended to provide alternative readings for one of the complete Targum texts. |
