Abstract

The Book of Commandments of the influential Qaraite scholar Levi b. Yefet is traditionally dated 1006/7 CE. This date is based on the Hebrew translation of the Book of Commandments and is irreconcilable with a calendrical characteristic of this year provided by Levi b. Yefet. In this article I propose to revise the date of composition of the Book of Commandments to 1009 CE. This date is given in a copy of the Arabic original of the code and is calendrically consistent. I also discuss events in the calendar of Palestinian Qaraites that prompted Levi b. Yefet to mention the year in which he was writing and that took place due to irregular weather patterns.

论阿拉伯人利未写《诫命书》的日期

有影响力的Qaraite学者Levi b.Yefet的《戒律》传统上是公元1006/7年。这个日期是根据希伯来语翻译的《诫书》确定的，与李维·b·耶菲提供的今年的日历特征不可调和。在这篇文章中，我建议将《诫书》的撰写日期修改为公元1009年。这个日期是在代码的阿拉伯语原件的副本中给出的，并且在日历上是一致的。我还讨论了巴勒斯坦Qaraites日历中的事件，这些事件促使Levi b.Yefet提到他写作的年份，以及由于不规则的天气模式而发生的事件。

期刊介绍： Zutot: Perspectives on Jewish Culture aims to fill a gap that has become more and more conspicuous among the wealth of scholarly periodicals in the field of Jewish Studies. Whereas existing journals provide space to medium and large sized articles, they neglect the small but poignant contributions, which may be as important as the extended, detailed study. The Zutot serves as a platform for small but incisive contributions, and provides them with a distinct context. The substance of these contributions is derived from larger perspectives and, though not always presented in an exhaustive way, will have an impact on contemporary discussions. The Zutot covers Jewish culture in its broadest sense, i.e. encompassing various academic disciplines—literature, languages and linguistics, philosophy, art, sociology, politics and history—and reflects binary oppositions such as religious and secular, high and low, written and oral, male and female culture.
