Whereas individual essays investigate how particular literary works, such as Ben Sira, Qumran documents, New Testament writings, the Apostolic Fathers, and Targums, appropriated the biblical text, taken together the essays form an exercise in uncovering the hermeneutical imagination of interpreters during formative periods of Jewish and Christian thought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume will be valuable to those interested in ancient Judaism and early Christianity, the history of interpretation of the Hebrew Bible, and the hermeneutical appropriation of sacred texts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47891857309847,"sku":"9789004164246","price":19669.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789004164246.webp?v=1781184986","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/israel-in-the-wilderness-interpretations-of-the-biblical-narratives-in-jewish-and-christian-traditions-9789004164246","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
