Saul is a qur'anic figure, but the incident with the witch of Endor does not appear in the Qur'an. Ikhwān al Ṣafā' appear to borrow it from the Bible. In their epistle on magic, Ikhwān al-Ṣafā' use this narrative as part of their missionary activity, converting select people to Neoplatonic philosophy and asceticism. The paper briefly covers the history of the reception of this narrative in Muslim communities, looking at the reception of the narrative against the backdrop of the reception of the Bible in Muslim communities and its translation into Arabic. The paper also examines the work of Ikhwān al-Ṣafā' and the place of this narrative in it, and argues that quotations from the Bible, and this passage in particular, serve the authors' mission. Magic is part of the Neoplatonic worldview, and therefore has an important place in the philosophy of Ikhwān al-Ṣafā'. That the Bible attests its existence serves to show both that authoritative sources prove the point and also that magic has a place in different cultures and traditions, making it widely relevant even though its existence is denied by many.","PeriodicalId":35110,"journal":{"name":"Hebrew Studies","volume":"142 1","pages":"137 - 155"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80609541","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}

{"title":"A Wicked Witch or a Good Psychotherapist? The Medium of Endor in Modern Hebrew Literature","authors":"Rachel Ofer","doi":"10.1353/hbr.2021.0018","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/hbr.2021.0018","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract:Modern Hebrew poets and writers describe the biblical figure of the Medium of Endor (I Sam 28: 3–25) as an empathetic woman, warm and compassionate, healing the souls of depressed individuals. This article categorizes the corpus of works that deal with the story of Saul and the Medium of Endor into two primary subjects: debunking the myth of the witch and presenting the world of magic favorably. In the works that belong to the former subject – there is a clear inclination to \"purify\" the Medium from the negative stereotype associated with her as a \"witch.\" By re-presenting the Medium various writers object to the negative, sometimes chauvinistic views, that were accepted in western culture regarding the image of the witch as one who seeks to harm human beings and threatens the social order, and who should therefore be persecuted and even put to death. Works from the second category tend to \"purify\" magic from the negative view that regards it as something \"forbidden,\" malicious, and dangerous. In these works, magic, mainly used as a therapeutic-psychological technique, aids human beings, and the Medium (ba'alat-ov) of Endor, is described as a contemporary psycho-spiritual therapist. Nowadays, people live in an alienated world and feel the need to turn to the supernatural to find solace for their anxieties. In these works, magic is described favorably, and in some of them it even provides a preferred theological alternative.","PeriodicalId":35110,"journal":{"name":"Hebrew Studies","volume":"30 1","pages":"181 - 205"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91244982","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}

Some Oddities of Ancient Hebrew Numeral Syntax 古希伯来数词句法的一些奇特之处

{"title":"Some Oddities of Ancient Hebrew Numeral Syntax","authors":"John Screnock","doi":"10.1353/hbr.2020.0020","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/hbr.2020.0020","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract:This study considers two oddities of the syntax of Ancient Hebrew cardinal numerals: first, numerals participate to greater or lesser extent—depending on the numeral—in both adjectival and nominal syntax; second, some nouns appear in the singular when quantified by numerals with the value eleven or higher, though there are exceptions with the very same nouns. Are numerals adjectives or nouns, and why does each numeral behave in different ways? Numerals in Hebrew—as in most or all languages—are properties of sets, and as such they behave both like adjectives and like nouns. Their underlying semantics result in a diversity of morpho-syntactic and syntactic features. Why do some nouns usually appear in the singular with numerals eleven and higher, and why are there exceptions? The use of the singular with numerals eleven and higher is a feature from older Hebrew. In our extant evidence, it is found only with high-use phrases, where the older feature is preserved. Exceptions arise because old features sometimes occur even after they are replaced, because high use phrases—not high use nouns—preserve the earlier feature, and because the structure of complex adding numerals sometimes precludes analysis of the noun as quantified by the entire adding numeral.","PeriodicalId":35110,"journal":{"name":"Hebrew Studies","volume":"13 1","pages":"23 - 44"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74600507","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}
