Michael Cox. Purge the Evil from Among You: Deuteronomy’s Social Vision of Israel’s Social Boundaries
Estimate of net heterotrophic status of the littoral Southern California Bight ecosystem from a dissolved oxygen time series
Littoral marine ecosystems are predicted to play a critical role in the ocean’s response to global climate change due to their generally high levels of primary production. However, the net trophic status of these systems has not been characterized adequately due to limited long-term time-series data of both autotrophic and heterotrophic activity. Although optical dissolved oxygen sensors are widely used and provide insight into many biological pr…
Robert D. Miller II. Finding Beauty in the Bible: An Aesthetic Commentary on the Song of Songs
Miller’s commentary is a thoroughly informative and insightful study of the Song of Songs. In the introduction (pp. 1–20), Miller outlines the aesthetic methodology he employs for the Song of Songs. Miller seeks to read poetry as a linguistic enactment of sensations, emotions, or thoughts, while striking a balance between form and content. To an extent, there is a necessary reader-response element in the Song, but Miller is careful to nuance this…
The Story of Sacrifice: Ritual and Narrative in the Priestly Source
Liane Feldman directly challenges the overuse of form and redaction criticisms in the legal and ritual texts of the pentateuchal Priestly material and the unwillingness of narrative critics to engage these as narrative. In chapter 1 (pp. 1–28), Feldman critiques scholars such as Julius Wellhausen and Robert Alter, who have deemed these texts nonliterary because they as modern readers were not affected by these texts as one should be affected by l…
Amy K. Erickson. Jonah: Introduction and Commentary
The reader might be surprised to see over four hundred pages of commentary on a biblical book that occupies only four short chapters. However, Erickson seeks to deliver “a reading that is a bit meatier and more savory” (p. 5). Indeed, the thoroughness and content of this commentary merit every bit of the length it occupies.The book opens with a lengthy introduction that is divided into several sections on interpretive factors that are relevant to…
The Gospel According to Eve: A History of Women’s Interpretation
Amanda Benckhuysen has written a wonderful and enlightening survey of women’s interpretation of Gen 1–3. The work follows chronologically from the earliest female interpretation of Hildegard of Bingen in the 12th century to modern feminist and intersectional interpreters. Although Gen 1–3 is the starting point for many of the feminist interpreters in the book, Benckhuysen also considers female interpretation of other Scriptures, notably the Pauli…
Growing Up in Ancient Israel: Children in Material Culture and Biblical Texts
Kristine Garroway “engages in a childist methodology to find the children [of the Hebrew Bible] and answer the practical question of what it is like to grow up in ancient Israel” (p. 1). Her work is influenced by feminist interpretation and childhood archaeology, and especially Carol Meyers. She employs a childist methodology that “investigates the life of the child, the child’s world, and the relationship between the child, their world, and the …
Early Upper Paleolithic chronology in the Levant: New ABOx-SC accelerator mass spectrometry results from the Mughr el-Hamamah Site, Jordan
A geochronologic framework for the Ziegler Reservoir fossil site, Snowmass Village, Colorado
The Ziegler Reservoir fossil site near Snowmass Village, Colorado (USA), provides a unique opportunity to reconstruct high-altitude paleoenvironmental conditions in the Rocky Mountains during the Last Interglacial Period. We used four different techniques to establish a chronological framework for the site. Radiocarbon dating of lake organics, bone collagen, and shell carbonate, and in situ cosmogenic 10 Be and 26 Al ages on a boulder on the cres…
Summary of the Snowmastodon Project Special Volume A high-elevation, multi-proxy biotic and environmental record of MIS 6–4 from the Ziegler Reservoir fossil site, Snowmass Village, Colorado, USA
In North America, terrestrial records of biodiversity and climate change that span Marine Oxygen Isotope Stage (MIS) 5 are rare. Where found, they provide insight into how the coupling of the ocean–atmosphere system is manifested in biotic and environmental records and how the biosphere responds to climate change. In 2010–2011, construction at Ziegler Reservoir near Snowmass Village, Colorado (USA) revealed a nearly continuous, lacustrine/wetland…
The Tràng An Project: Late-to-Post-Pleistocene Settlement of the Lower Song Hong Valley, North Vietnam
Tràng An is a Vietnamese government supported cultural and ecological park development covering 2,500 hectares that is centred on an isolated massif on the southern edge of the Song Hong delta in Ninh Bình Province, north Vietnam (Fig. 1). The archaeological investigation of Tràng An is being led jointly by the Xuan Truong Construction Corporation and the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research, University of Cambridge, under the direction…

Sankara, Ramanuja, and the Function of Religious Language
In the opening sections of his Brahma-sutra-bhasya , Ramanuja makes a very forceful assault on Sankara's Advaita theory. This assault anticipates in a striking way modern western attacks on metaphysical religious positions, attacks which stem from Hume and are associated today with names like A. J. Ayer and Antony Flew. In this paper I wish to argue that certain aspects of Sankara's position, as enunciated in his Brahma-sutra-bhasya , suggest tha…
