The ancient Israelites believed things that the writers of the Bible wanted them to forget: myths and legends from a pre-biblical world that the new monotheist order needed to bury, hide, or reinterpret.
Ancient Israel was rich in such literary traditions before the Bible reached the final form that we have today. These traditions were not lost but continued, passed down through the ages. Many managed to reach us in post-biblical sources: rabbinic literature, Jewish Hellenistic writings, the writings of the Dead Sea sect, the Aramaic, Greek, Latin, and other ancient translations of the Bible, and even outside the ancient Jewish world in Christian and Islamic texts. The Bible itself sometimes alludes to these traditions, often in surprising contexts.
Written in clear and accessible language, this volume presents thirty such traditions. It voyages behind the veil of the written Bible to reconstruct what was told and retold among the ancient Israelites, even if it is “not what the Bible tells us.”

Описание: Dr Gooding offers a detailed analysis of two passages that may well hold the key to the major textual problems raised by the ancient Greek translation of 1 Kings demonstrating that these were either variant readings or alternative translations and interpretations of the Hebrew, carefully edited and arranged by some ancient scholar-exegete to form a discourse on two aspects of Soloman`s reign.
Описание: Originally published in 1844, this was the first major work by Samuel Prideaux Tregelles, who went on to edit the complete Greek New Testament from ancient sources. His Greek edition of Revelation, with critical apparatus, historical notes and English translation, marked a turning point in nineteenth-century Biblical scholarship.

Описание: This work re-examines the divisive wisdom in 1 Corinthians on the basis of consistent discourse similarities between the views of the Corinthians and the Stoic system of thought. Brookins argues that access to philosophical training moved the church`s wealthier members to conflate Paul`s message with Stoicism, resulting in disturbances within the church.
