A Note on the Translation of Ezra 4
This article provides a philological assessment of the statement in Ezra 4:12b and offers a new translation. We focus on the word יַחִיטוּ . We propose to construe the form as originally * יְחִיטוּ , G-stem prefixing conjugation of חיט , »to inspect«. In order to substantiate our proposal we refer to a series of cognates in Aramaic and other Semitic languages. Two newly edited Aramaic documents from Elephantine are mentioned, as well as texts fro…
Aibl-CIS de Ricci no. 2
This article presents a previously unknown Jewish and Aramaic religious literary composition dating between the early second and early fourth centuries CE . The document focuses on a righteous man within the context of angels, demons, and spirits. The manuscript, which is housed in the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres, Cabinet du Corpus Inscriptionum Semiticarum , has a clear acquisition history and comes from Egypt. The text is edited…
Identity in Persian Egypt
The Persian administrative process in view of an Elephantine ʾAršāma decree ( TAD A6.2)
This article begins with a study on the meaning of ṬʿM “decree” in Persian period Aramaic documentary sources from Egypt and on the format of the official decree genre. The article then turns to a study on the manuscript features of an ʾAršāma decree known from Elephantine, EM Pap. no. 3432 = J. 43469 (TAD A6.2). The goal is to shed light on the opaque processes of the Persian administration. It is argued that the various signatories on the manus…
Judeans in Elephantine and Babylonia
This paper is a case study that discusses Judean rights and tenancy in Egypt under the Persian administration. It uses TAD A6.11, a Persian Aramaic decree about farmland rights in Egypt, as an example of an imperial document to mediate a comparison between the Babylonian Judean experience in farmlands and Egyptian Judean experience on the (sub-)urban island of Elephantine under Persian rule. First a Babylonian Judean document, CUSAS 28 no. 69 is …
Long-Term Corrosion Processes of Iron and Steel Shipwrecks in the Marine Environment
The Philosopher's Frenzy
Words about wisdom bring me both profit and delight. But you who speak only of money and business enjoy an empty facade of success; you cause me pain and provoke my pity. In these terms roughly, Apollodorus, narrator of Plato's Symposium, attacks his nameless companions, near the beginning of the dialogue (173c 2-d 3). The attack is abrupt and apparently unwarranted, for his companions have shown an interest in philosophy. These unnamed money-mak…
