This paper will analyse the relationship between wisdom and law in the book of Deuteronomy, in order to show how freeing the concept of wisdom in Deuteronomy from the influence of ‘Wisdom Literature’ opens up perspectives to appreciate the wisdom of Deuteronomy on its own terms as a unique contribution to conceptions of Hebrew wisdom. Rather than thinking of the wisdom of Deuteronomy as being influenced by ‘Wisdom Literature’, the wisdom terminology in Deuteronomy is better accounted for by Deuteronomy’s rhetorical appropriation of the ancient Near Eastern Instruction and Law Code literary forms, each of which focuses on transmitting wisdom for successful living. The wisdom of Deuteronomy, which is cultivated throughout the book in the literary forms of Instruction and Law Code for the transmission of knowledge and intellectual skill in Torah interpretation and application, is distinct yet complementary to the wisdom found in the traditional ‘Wisdom’ books, Proverbs, Job, and Ecclesiastes.","PeriodicalId":213560,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Theological Studies","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135337752","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Focusing on approaches to Gospel plurality visible in the Epistula apostolorum, Tatian the Syrian, Irenaeus of Lyons, and Ammonius of Alexandria, we argue that a number of Christian readers—across the Roman Mediterranean, from Alexandria to Gaul and from Syria to Rome—employed similar approaches. Drawing on evidence for second-century reading practices, we demonstrate continuities in both textual practices and conceptual frameworks that illuminate Gospel reading and writing. These figures engaged Gospels in multiple dimensions—horizontal juxtaposition of parallel material and vertical coordination of narrative sequence—in order to map relationships between imperfectly parallel texts. These spatial textual practices enabled synthetic reading of an emergent pluriform Gospel corpus.","PeriodicalId":213560,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Theological Studies","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130174740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

J. M. Milne and T. C. Skeat’s argument for the date of Codex Sinaiticus, which they described as ‘not likely to be much later than about A.D. 360’. Such precision derived in part from their observation of an ‘old system’ of scribal figures for numerals in the thousands found in the codex. In addition to presenting many new relevant comparanda, this study also provides a critical examination of the argument itself. It is argued that although many of Milne and Skeat’s observations were correct, their appeal to numerals to establish a terminus ante quem for Codex Sinaiticus is invalid.","PeriodicalId":213560,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Theological Studies","volume":"399 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134942032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, these interconnected texts assist the interpretation of Hezekiah’s final enigmatic comments in 39:8. Following the account of the death of Sennacherib at the hands of his sons, a number of resonances are uncovered in the ensuing narrative about the fate of Hezekiah, which also has implications for the future of his sons. Sennacherib cannot keep himself alive, even while worshipping in the house of his patron god and in the company of his sons (37:37–8). By contrast, Hezekiah anticipates that after his reprieve from death, he and his sons will be found worshipping in the house of YHWH (38:20, 22). Finally, it is forecast that, precipitated by their father’s actions, some of the sons of Hezekiah due to castration and exile will be excluded from the worship of the house of YHWH (39:7), but Hezekiah expresses relief that this will not be his fate, instead he will continue to enjoy God-given ‘peace’ and divine ‘faithfulness’ through participation in the temple cult (39:8).","PeriodicalId":213560,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Theological Studies","volume":"254 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133461468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
