These particular formulae have long been understood as evidence of the Name Theology - the evolution in Israelite religion toward a more abstracted mode of divine presence in the temple. Utilizing epigraphic material gathered from Mesopotamian and Levantine contexts, this study demonstrates that \u003ci\u003eleshakken shemo sham\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003elashum shemo sham\u003c\/i\u003e are loan-adaptations of Akkadian \u003ci\u003eshuma shakanu\u003c\/i\u003e, an idiom common to the royal monumental tradition of Mesopotamia. The resulting retranslation and reinterpretation of the biblical idiom profoundly impacts the classic formulation of the Name Theology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"de Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47813617680535,"sku":"9783110173765","price":12704.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783110173765.webp?v=1778337209","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-deuteronomistic-history-and-the-name-theology-leshakken-shemo-sham-in-the-bible-and-the-ancient-near-east-9783110173765","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
