{"product_id":"old-testament-pseudepigrapha-and-the-e-tigchelaar-9789042931282","title":"Old Testament Pseudepigrapha and the Scriptures","description":"\u003ci\u003eOld Testament Pseudepigrapha and the Scriptures\u003c\/i\u003e contains the papers of the Colloquium Biblicum Lovaniense 2012, which focused on a series of contemporary questions in Pseudepigrapha research. The papers discuss the relationship of Old Testament Pseudepigrapha to scriptures, both in a technical sense (how did authors rewrite or interpret Scripture) and in a literary sense (how and why did authors expand or extend earlier scriptures). Many papers cover the phenomenon of pseudepigraphy, giving explanations ranging from pious forgery through various kinds of literary devices to authorial self-effacement. Some contributions discuss the historically fluid boundaries between canonical and pseudepigraphic texts, and the production and use of Old Testament pseudepigrapha in early Christianity. The volume contains papers on texts like \u003ci\u003eJubilees\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eGenesis Apocryphon\u003c\/i\u003e, other Dead Sea Scrolls texts, the \u003ci\u003eSibylline Oracles\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBaruch\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eTestament of Abraham\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e4 Ezra\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eJannes and Jambres\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eLatin Vision of Ezra\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eLife of Adam and Eve\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eStory of Melchizedek\u003c\/i\u003e, and the \u003ci\u003eStory of Zosimus\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as detailed studies on aspects of other texts like, e.g., \u003ci\u003e2 Baruch and the Liber Antiquitatum Biblicarum\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e E.
