This is an excellent book showing forth the making of the Bible as we know it today. The history of Jews is traced from earliest texts though the consummation of what we know today. We are given a good sweep through the the Book of Jubilees, Dead Sea Scrolls and and the Septuagint. How the two part system of the Christian Bible came about is described. And then the translations. ( ) A solid summary of how the Bible developed in both Jewish and Christian contexts. It's good in not presenting a supersessionist view of the topic (i.e. it doesn't present the development of the Hebrew Bible as important only inasmuch as it's a "precursor" of the Christian Bible, or only happening before the 1st century CE), but probably too dense in approach and prose style for those who don't have a grounding in the topic already. I'd use this only in a very advanced undergraduate if not in a postgraduate course setting. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
The authoritative new account of the Bible’s origins, illuminating the 1,600-year tradition that shaped the Christian and Jewish holy books as millions know them today. The Bible as we know it today is best understood as a process, one that begins in the tenth century BCE. In this revelatory account, a world-renowned scholar of Hebrew scripture joins a foremost authority on the New Testament to write a new biography of the Book of Books, reconstructing Jewish and Christian scriptural histories, as well as the underappreciated contest between them, from which the Bible arose. Recent scholarship has overturned popular assumptions about Israel’s past, suggesting, for instance, that the five books of the Torah were written not by Moses but during the reign of Josiah centuries later. The sources of the Gospels are also under scrutiny. Konrad Schmid and Jens Schröter reveal the long, transformative journeys of these and other texts en route to inclusion in the holy books. The New Testament, the authors show, did not develop in the wake of an Old Testament set in stone. Rather the two evolved in parallel, in conversation with each other, ensuring a continuing mutual influence of Jewish and Christian traditions. Indeed, Schmid and Schröter argue that Judaism may not have survived had it not been reshaped in competition with early Christianity. A remarkable synthesis of the latest Old and New Testament scholarship, The Making of the Bible is the most comprehensive history yet told of the world’s best-known literature, revealing its buried lessons and secrets.
