{"product_id":"voces-biblicae-j-joosten-9789042919150","title":"Voces Biblicae: Septuagint Greek and Its Significance for the New Testament","description":"During the Renaissance period, when the Greek texts of the Bible became accessible again to Western scholars, a large number of words were identified that seemed to be attested only in the Septuagint and New Testament: the famous \u003ci\u003evoces biblicae\u003c\/i\u003e, \"biblical words\". They were held by some to reflect a special kind of Jewish Greek, or perhaps even a peculiar Greek idiom created by the Holy Spirit in order to express the unspeakable mysteries of God's grace. Today, scholars usually prefer more down-to-earth explanations. Moreover, the list of \u003ci\u003evoces biblicae\u003c\/i\u003e has been much shortened because many words that were initially found only in the Bible later turned up in the papyri. Nevertheless, the \"biblical words\" continue to fascinate. The present volume contains seven essays illuminating different aspects of the vocabulary of the Greek Bible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e J.
