The Beginnings of Law
In legal history, the ancient Near East - including ancient Israel - has often been relegated to isolated and marginal positions. Scholarship has long been dominated by narratives that privilege Greece and Rome as the foundations of Western law, and the legal traditions of Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Israel are frequently treated as historical curiosities rather than as integral contributors to the development of legal thought. Yet recent research ac…

Der vorliegende Band versammelt vierundzwanzig Beiträge führender Forscherinnen und Forscher, die sich mit grundlegenden Fragen zur Komposition des Pentateuch im ersten Jahrtausend v. Chr. in seinen unterschiedlichen kulturellen Kontexten befassen, darunter der südlichen Levante, Mesopotamien und möglicherweise Ägypten. Er eröffnet mit einer neuen Bewertung der dem Pentateuch zugrunde liegenden Schriftkulturen und untersucht die materiellen und s…

German Nationalism and Protestant Supersessionism
Hermann Gunkel (1862-1932) was an important representative of the so-called »Religionsgeschichtliche Schule,« and in his works he broke new ground in the study of the Hebrew Bible, for example, in the development of the form-critical method, the comparative exploration of creation and end-time concepts, and the interpretation of the books of Genesis and Psalms. Although well trained in historical criticism, Gunkel's reconstructions and evaluation…
Is the Composition of the Pentateuch Too Complex to Be Taught
The composition of the Pentateuch is a contested issue. Current theories are best taught by explaining the dynamics in the history of research that led to the main theories and their critiques that are currently dominating the scholarly discussion
How God Became a Lawgiver
The Torah is God’s law. This biblical concept is so prominent and is considered so self-evident that it has hardly been perceived as a historical problem until now. Traditionally, it was considered to be a basic element of the Bible within its historical context. But in fact, it represents an innovation in the ancient Near East, and for this very reason it should be investigated historically: In the ancient world, kings, not deities, were lawgive…
Dieu le législateur. À la recherche des origines intellectuelles des lois divines de la Torah
La Torah est la loi de Dieu. Ce concept biblique est d’une telle centralité, il est considéré comme tellement évident, qu’il n’a guère été perçu comme un problème historique jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Traditionnellement, il était conçu comme un élément de base de la Bible dans son contexte historique. Mais en réalité, il constitue une innovation dans le Proche-Orient ancien, et requiert pour cette raison une investigation historique : dans le monde ant…
Reading the Blood Plague (Exodus 7
This essay presents a methodological commitment to rethink the presuppositions about compositional practices with respect to the assembly and production of what we have come to call the Pentateuch. Throughout the article the authors present an account of the ancient biblical writers and readers as committed to producing difference—not to produce an overall seamless linear narrative. The textual example focuses on the blood plague but considers th…
From Lament to Guilt
Within the earliest texts in the book of Jeremiah, a remarkable theological development can be reconstructed: A first layer of prophetic laments seems to have been expanded by theological interpretations that imply a shift from lament to accusation. The disaster that Judah and Jerusalem experience before and after the catastrophe of 587 BCE is not a historical coincidence, but the result of a divine plan. In this development, the beginnings of th…
Gott als Gesetzgeber
The Torah is God's law. This biblical concept is so prominent and is considered so self-evident that it has hardly been perceived as a historical problem until now. Traditionally, it was considered to be a basic element of the Bible within its historical context. But in fact, it represents an innovation in the ancient Near East, and for this very reason it should be investigated historically - after all, in the ancient world, kings, not deities, …
The Joseph Story between Egypt and Israel
Within the context of the Torah, the Joseph story can be read as a transition that explains why Jacob and his family came to Egypt. However, if one looks at other texts of the Hebrew Bible, there is no mention of the Joseph story; instead, the arrival of the Israelites is said to be the result of the decision of a »father« or of »fathers« to go down do Egypt. Indeed, there are very few references to Joseph at all in the whole Hebrew Bible. Appare…
Themen und Probleme Theologischer Enzyklopädie
Theologie als akademisches Fach beinhaltet eine Fülle unterschiedlicher Disziplinen mit je spezifischen Methodiken und außertheologischen Bezugswissenschaften. Was hält diese disziplinäre Vielfalt zusammen? Und welche interdisziplinären Erwartungen richten sich an die Theologie als ganze? Der Band dokumentiert Perspektiven auf die »theologische Enzyklopädie« von innen und von außen in Form eines Fachgesprächs, das auf einer Tagung in München 2019…
A feitura da Bíblia
A Bíblia é uma obra de escribas, em geral anônimos, que a produziram como texto escrito entre o século IX AEC e o século II EC. Suas tradições orais se estendem até o segundo milênio AEC. O resultado desta história longa de composição é um texto complexo, porém legível, como demonstra sua longa história de recepção, principalmente no judaísmo e no cristianismo. Se olhada de perto, a Bíblia revela um interessante conjunto de pesos e contrapesos en…
The Neo-Documentarian Manifesto
First, the Pentateuch is a document written in the first millennium BCE; second, it is composed of sources and redactional elements; third, there is one specific literary layer in the Pentateuch that can be distinguished with sufficient clarity from others, and that is P; fourth, the Pentateuch includes pre-P material; fifth, there are also post-P elements in the Pentateuch; and, sixth, D is a fairly safe and commonly accepted hypothesis among sc…
How Old Is the Hebrew Bible? A Response to Ronald Hendel and Jan Joosten
The book »How Old Is the Hebrew Bible?« by Ronald Hendel and Jan Joosten is an apt introduction to dating biblical texts linguistically. However, this approach is not capable to reliably determine how old the texts and writings of the Hebrew Bible are. Rather, different dating methods need to be balanced against each other in order to get sound results in that respect
Writing on the Heart‹ (Jer 31
This contribution includes a critical discussion of Joachim J. Krause, »›Writing on the Heart‹ in Jeremiah 31:31–34 in Light of Recent Insights into the Oral-Written Interface and Scribal Education in Ancient Israel,« ZAW 132 (2020): 236–249
Theologie des Alten Testaments
Unter den Teildisziplinen der alttestamentlichen Wissenschaft galt die Theologie des Alten Testaments lange als deren vornehmste Aufgabe. Doch in den letzten Jahrzehnten wurde mehr und mehr undeutlich, was eine Theologie des Alten Testaments eigentlich zu leisten habe. Konrad Schmid wendet sich zuerst der historischen Klärung des Theologiebegriffs in Anwendung auf die Bibel zu, diskutiert dann die Vielgestaltigkeit vorliegender Hebräischer Bibeln…

Jews and Samaritans in Joshua 24
This article collects the evidence for a post-Priestly dating of Joshua 24 in the fifth century BCE and interprets the specific setting and concept of this text in the context of the contemporaneous rivalries and interactions between Jews and Samaritans. Joshua 24 opts for a theocratic constitution for all Israel. The choice of Shechem as the location for this scene shows that the North is not the exclusive, but a very prominent addressee of Josh…
Jesaja als altorientalisches Buch. Aspekte der Forschungsgeschichte
In den vergangenen 150 Jahren hat die Bibelwissenschaft die kulturgeschichtliche Vernetzung der biblischen Literatur innerhalb des Alten Orients immer stärker herausgestellt. Für das Jesajabuch hat sich dabei gezeigt, dass Verbindungen zur neuassyrischen Prophetie zwar interessant sind, an Bedeutung aber hinter der Aufnahme und Uminterpretation von weiteren neuassyrischen Texten zurückstehen. Für die exegetische Auswertung dieser Bezüge ist die U…
The Formation of the Pentateuch
The Pentateuch lies at the heart of the Western humanities. Yet despite nearly two centuries of scholarship, its historical origins and its literary history are still a subject of intense discussion. Critical scholarship has isolated multiple layers of tradition, inconsistent laws, and narratives that could only have originated from separate communities within ancient Israel, and were joined together at a relatively late stage by a process of spl…

Die neuere Forschung zum Alten Testament hat deutlich gemacht, dass dessen Bücher über weite Strecken hin Text und Kommentar in einem sind.

Erst die Kanonsgrenze hat Text und Kommentar dann dauerhaft voneinander getrennt. Der vorl…

The Pentateuch as Torah
Since antiquity, the five books of Moses have served as a sacred constitution, foundational for both Jews and Samaritans. However long the process of accepting the Pentateuch as authoritative tōrâ (“instruction”) took, this was by all accounts a monumental achievement in the history of these peoples and indeed an important moment in the history of the ancient world. In the long development of Western societies, the Pentateuch has served as a majo…
Beyond Eden
The Story of Paradise (Genesis 2-3) is probably one of the best known texts in world literature. Using a multidisciplinary approach, the authors of this volume explore the historical meanings and the many ways in which this narrative has been received.
Beyond Eden
The Pentateuch
The present volume contains a collection of articles from an international conference in Zürich that brought together leading voices from North America, Europe, and Israel to evaluate the present state of research on the composition of the Pentateuch. The aim of the conference was to clarify differences in methodology and to identify points of convergence in the present state of pentateuchal research as a basis for further discussion. »The essays…
The Pentateuch
The Pentateuch is both the literary capstone and the central core of the Hebrew biblical canon. It contains many of the best known and most influential literary texts of world literature. A firm conclusion of biblical research is that the sweeping narrative of the Pentateuch that begins with creation and concludes with the death of Moses was not composed by one author, but is the result of a literary process that took place over hundreds of years…
Schriftgelehrte Traditionsliteratur
The various studies by Konrad Schmid in this volume investigate the culture of writing and the composition of literary works in ancient Israel, present several case studies of inner-biblical exegesis in the Old Testament and reflect on the resulting theological significance. The image of the Old Testament as traditional scribal literature as portrayed by recent Old Testament scholarship lays the foundation for an historically differentiated and t…

Judean Identity and Ecumenicity
Deuteronomy in the Pentateuch, Hexateuch, and the Deuteronomistic History
The earlier consensus concerning the Pentateuch and the Deuteronomistic History has been significantly challenged in recent scholarship. Because of its canonical placement, the book of Deuteronomy plays an important role in these discussions. The earlier consensus was that the D source in the Pentateuch was primarily (if not only) found in Deuteronomy and that Deuteronomy was the founding source for the Deuteronomistic History. Recently, however,…
Schopfung
Im Horizont ökologischer Krisen, aber auch der Kreationismusdebatte ist Schöpfung in den letzten Jahrzehnten zu einem vielverhandelten theologischen Thema geworden. Der Begriff der Schöpfung hat darüber hinaus auch Anwendung in Kontexten außerhalb von Theologie und Kirche gefunden. Die nicht selten anzutreffende Bestimmung der Welt als Schöpfung im Sinne von zu bewahrender Umwelt greift allerdings meistens zu kurz und erschließt die Sinndimension…
Der Pentateuch und seine Theologiegeschichte
Pentateuchal scholarship has changed radically in the past forty years. The re-evaluation of the compositional history of the Pentateuch that has taken place necessitates consideration of the theological implications that accompany this new perspective. This contribution first attempts to reconstruct the theological dynamics and logic involved in the literary development of the most important components of the Pentateuch, and then to draw conclus…

Distinguishing the World of the Exodus Narrative from the World of Its Narrators
The Post-Priestly Pentateuch
The authors of this volume study the last additions or revisions made to the first five books of the Hebrew Bible (Pentateuch) after the fifth century BCE.
The post-priestly Pentateuch
Today agreement regarding the formation of the Pentateuch is no longer as widespread as it was when the documentary hypothesis was first proposed. Numerous scholars find that more recent periods of Israelite history - the exilic and post-exilic periods - are more likely to have been behind important sections of the Pentateuch. This has resulted in a major shift in scholarship: no longer is the remote past of Israelite history the only era, or eve…
