Zum Prozess der Psalmenverkettung

Abstract

The article presents concatenatio between psalms on different levels, taking into account textcritical aspects (Ps 73,1; 48,15; 28,8), variations of the Hebrew ´Vorlage´ of the Septuagint (Ps 73,28; 40,18; 11,4; 135,1f.21; 13,6); variations of the traditional vocalization (Ps 65,2) and the introduction of new elements of concatenation in the Septuagint psalms (Ps 82,2LXX) as well as in the texts from Qumran (Ps 125,1 and 145,1 in 11 QPsa). The textual variations are in many cases best explained as intended to establish concatenation.
