Abstract

Important facets of identity can be communicated through dress. Descriptions of dress and body adornment within the text of the Hebrew Bible can therefore be used as a narrative device to convey subtextual information about the wearer. By utilising archaeological research on the role that jewellery plays in age and gender differentiation alongside textual evidence, this article argues that נזם rings are worn by women and children of both genders to convey messages about their valuation, commodification and ownership in relation to a male patriarch. This has important implications for understanding the nuances within the biblical texts themselves and offers new perspectives and interpretative possibilities.

与导航权力结构

身份的重要方面可以通过着装来传达。因此，希伯来圣经文本中对服装和身体装饰的描述可以作为一种叙事手段来传达关于穿着者的潜台词信息。通过对珠宝在年龄和性别差异中所扮演的角色的考古研究以及文本证据，本文认为，男女妇女和儿童都戴着戒指，以传达与男性族长有关的价值、商品化和所有权的信息。这对于理解圣经文本本身的细微差别具有重要意义，并提供了新的视角和解释的可能性。

期刊介绍： This innovative and highly acclaimed journal publishes articles on various aspects of critical biblical scholarship in a complex global context. The journal provides a medium for the development and exercise of a whole range of current interpretive trajectories, as well as deliberation and appraisal of methodological foci and resources. Alongside individual essays on various subjects submitted by authors, the journal welcomes proposals for special issues that focus on particular emergent themes and analytical trends. Over the past two decades, Biblical Interpretation has provided a professional forum for pushing the disciplinary boundaries of biblical studies: not only in terms of what biblical texts mean, but also what questions to ask of biblical texts, as well as what resources to use in reading biblical literature. The journal has thus the distinction of serving as a site for theoretical reflection and methodological experimentation.
