Abstract:
How do people from our day and age view the Bible? Not all members of the Dutch Reformed Church cherish the same view about Scripture. The letters in the Afrikaans newspapers on religious issues clearly reflect this. There are two groups of scholars in the church whose views on Scripture impact on church members’ views. They are (1) systematic theologians and (2) biblical scholars. A large number of systematic theologians adhere to the view which was formulated during the heydays of Protestant Orthodoxy, i.e. that the Bible reflects a double authorship. They prefer to use the Latin words “auctor primaries” and “auctores secundarii” when writing about Scripture. A large number of biblical scholars, however, work with the idea that the Bible reflects single authorship. God did not write. Humans wrote the books of the Bible. It goes without saying that ordinary church members do not always understand the differences and are often perplexed by these differences. It is of utmost importance to discuss these differences and to try and find some middle ground in the church.

Abstract:
The New Testament translation from the mid-15th century attributed to the Utraquist priest and diplomat Martin Lupáč represents the first phase of the 4th redaction of the Old Czech Bible translation. It served as a model for the Prague Bible (1488) — the first printed Slavic Bible.The aim of the present work is to detect specific features of Lupáč’s translation method by comparing his texts with four editions of the Old Czech Bible translation. In addition we aim to verify Lupáč’s authorship of the translation, previously attributed to him on the basis of insufficient evidence, by comparing it with two Czech texts written by him. Our results show that Lupáč’s translation contains a number of grammatical innovations that were consciously used to make the Bible content more accessible to the contemporary recipients, e.g., using iterative verbs instead of disappearing imperfect tense, using compound sentences with a finite verb instead of Latin nominal constructions. We detected vocabulary specific for the 15th century (currency, units of measurement, names of feasts), additional explanatory notes, precise translations of non-specific Latin verbs, stylistic dissimilation, and German and new bohemicized Latin loanwords. In addition, in Lupáč’s translation of the Pauline Epistles we found traces of Utraquist theology. We compare the language of two Czech tractates written by Lupáč with the New Testament translation attributed to him, but the degree of similarity is not sufficient to confirm the attribution. In conclusion, Lupáč’s New Testament is a vivid and explanatory translation with unique stylistic figures. Some innovations were so unusual that they were omitted in the Prague Bible created by Utraquists 40 years later.

Full text
Abstract:
In the present study, Hindy Najman addresses two fundamental aspects related to Second Temple Jewish literature: pseudepigrapha and the rewritten Bible. Pseudepigrapha as a literary genre signifies texts which claim as their author some privileged individual from the past. In reality, however, the attribution of authorship to some ancient figure masks the present-day composition of the text. The term rewritten Bible, in its broadest use, refers to the interpretive reworking of the scriptural text and story through such means as expansion, deletion, harmonization, and conflation. The final product retains the narrative sequence of the scriptural account though in a significantly modified form. Both of these literary techniques seemingly have at their base a manipulation and subversion of the integrity of the scriptural story and text. Pseudepigrapha asserts for a latter day author the authority and prestige of an ancient figure; rewritten Bible presents itself as a new and improved scripture.

Abstract:
The “steel bible” emerged in 1919 and went through 11 editions in 80 years. In its evolution we can see the shift from individual to group authorship, an increasing use of visual elements, and a physical change from a small, hand-held volume to a weighty desktop reference. In a textual analysis, we can see that it was essentially static, changing only by additions and deletions, as the industry evolved. The eventual closing of hundreds of plants and the migration of the industry to other countries can be seen in the change of publisher, the sudden absence of photography, and the international references. Originally, the steel bible came from the factory floor and the words of the plant managers, but by the 1990s, it was a highly-abstracted representation of knowledge. In the steel bible, we can see the history of the industry and the maturing of technical communication in the 20th century.

Abstract:
The pseudonymous theory in the authorship of 1 Peter is a threat to the authority of 1 Peter. This article aims to respond to the pseudonymous theory. Although it does not represent the view of the evangelical interpreter as a whole, this article attempts to maintain the authority of 1 Peter as an integral part of the Bible. The author presents internal and external evidences that supports the theory that Peter wrote the letter. The author analyzes the material, the writing’s purposes, literature and outline to show internal evidence. The author also presents the ancient documents which have recorded Peter as the author of 1 Peter. The belief in the authority of 1 Peter is to encourage believers to respect every passage in the Bible as the spiritual mind of God. Thus, believers have a solid foundation in thinking, speaking and acting according to God's Word.

In the 1519 edition of the Novum Testamentum Erasmus replaced the traditional Marcionite Argumenta which prefaced each of the Pauline Epistles in the Novum Instrumentum of 1516 with newly composed Argumenta of his own. This article explores the function of these prefaces within the broader context of Erasmus’ program of biblical scholarship. Broaching the topics of authorship, literary style, theological content, and devotional application which are more fully worked out in the Annotations, Paraphrases, and Ratio verae theologiae, the Argumenta express in miniature Erasmus’ objectives as an editor of the Bible.

Abstract:
Ancient literature, exemplified by texts such as the Bible, carries immense cultural and historical significance, serving as a repository of the ancestors' experiences, triumphs, tragedies, and beliefs. Yet, delving into these ancient texts presents formidable challenges due to their limited accessibility. Over time, numerous historical documents have either vanished or undergone alterations, whether due to natural calamities or deliberate human actions. These obstacles have stymied progress in the field of diplomatics, rendering it a sluggish and occasionally unreliable endeavor. Remarkably, within very words and sentences of these texts lies a treasure trove of information. Properly harnessed, they offer a rich source of records for the advancement of diplomatics. For instance, deep learning techniques hold the promise of uncovering the number of authors who contributed to texts like the Bible. This research employs well-established and straightforward deep learning modelsK-means, Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), and Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN)to categorize the diverse writing styles present in the Bible. This methodology can be extended to other ancient English texts with uncertain authorship. The study involves the extraction of text from various versions of the Bible, which is then transformed into strings for analysis using these models. By categorizing different writing styles based on their underlying principles, the analysis facilitates an estimation of the number of authors who contributed to the Bible. Furthermore, the ensuing discussion offers insights into the advantages and limitations of this research project, shedding light on how its methods and findings might impact individuals.

Full text
Abstract:
Textual criticism refers to the techniques used by biblical scholars in interpreting a given text of the Bible to ascertain its original wording, the nature of its composition, sources, date, and authorship. Textual criticism is an essential aspect of biblical interpretation, which some interpreters technically dodged from it thinking that the word “criticism” is negative. Far be it from this assertion, biblical criticism is relevant, and it remains relevant. Textual criticism is significant; it helps us understand that Scripture cannot be overestimated. It is vital to the understanding of Scripture as the Word of God. It seeks to investigate and understand the situation of the original recipients of the word to discover precisely what the original writers of the scriptures meant by their words. From this Spirit, the writer would shed light on the importance and relevance of biblical criticism, especially to the interpretation of the Bible. To achieve the aim of the writing, the writer uses the narrative-critical analysis method to present the paper’s idea.

Abstract:
The thrust of this work is to study Israelite pre-exilic writing of religious literature. The beginning of literacy is considered from an archaeological perspective; especially, in the pre-exilic Israelite community. The study of scribes and their services assist in the quest for understanding pre-exilic religious writing in Israel. The Bible attests to pre-exilic religious writing despite the often inferred ‘anachronism.’ The issue of post-exilic composition of all Old Testament books is a matter of debate as opposed to pre-exilic writing of some religious sources which is a matter that can be historically verified.

Stubbs, John Derek. "An investigation of synoptic history and style by means of a comprehensive assessment of syntax chains." Thesis, 1998. http://hdl.handle.net/10500/16144.

Full text
Abstract:
The goal of the thesis is to trace the sequence of materials of different origin in the synoptic Gospels through stylistic features. The question is whether an author's style is typical in the way it employs syntax. Using syntax, the thesis tests whether a sample can be correctly associated with one author, rather than incorrectly associated with another author. 'Syntax,' in this thesis, quite specifically intends 'an assessment of a very broad range of syntax.' The thesis reviews the literary debate over the 'synoptic problem,' finding that Luke knew and depended the triple tradition known to Mark. Luke did not know or use the unique parts of Mark. This set of materials, then, can be used to test whether syntax indicates a similar relationship. Regarding the literature on style in authorship attribution, the thesis develops principles for measuring style through syntax, and compares the distribution of the occurrence-the 'weighted sum of the logs of the ratio'--of syntax in each of three blocks of text. Such a distribution associates a reference block of text with the correct distribution from the distributions in two alternative texts offered. That is, a reference block drawn from the editorial layer in Mark proves to be closer to the remaining editorial layer in Mark (which is correct), than it proves to be to the editorial layer in Luke (which would be incorrect). This is at least a first step towards using this method with sources that appear in New Testament documents, even when they are small or fragmentary. The thesis then applies such an analysis to one of the clearest sources in the synoptic Gospels, namely, the 'triple tradition' as presented by Luke. The analysis is congruent with the results of literary criticism. This supports the idea that syntax can discern or define a source, and so it can help us understand more about the evolution of the New Testament. Nevertheless, the thesis finds that although Luke knew the 'triple tradition' that Mark used, yet Luke appears not to have fully relied on the version of the triple tradition that we know in, and as edited by Mark.

Abstract:
Chapter 2 presents an account of the nature of the Old Testament or the Hebrew Bible. This includes a brief analysis of its historical context, tradition, and authorship. It treats a few episodes from the beginning of Genesis, specifically, the Creation, the Fall, the Tower of Babel, and the Flood. Comparisons are made with similar stories in The Epic of Gilgamesh. An interpretation is given of the Hebrew anthropology as it appears in the account of the creation of humans and original sin. It is argued that this is the story of how humans first separated themselves from nature and became self-conscious. The second half of the chapter gives a reading of The Book of Job. This story raises similar questions to those found in Gilgamesh about the issue of divine justice. An account is given of the different layers of the text and the different views of its authors. Both works represent a human protest against the divine and the nature of the universe, where humans suffer and die.

Abstract Abstract: This chapter outlines the origins, nature, and differences found in the traditions that make up the Latin Psalter. Tracing the development from the time of Tertullian to that of Jerome and Augustine, particular attention is paid to new discoveries in the field that help explain the evolution in the text found in the early citations of the Old Latin Psalter to that found in later Psalter Manuscripts. The dependence of the Latin Psalter on the Septuagint Psalter and Origen’s Hexapla is explained, while Jerome’s authorship of the Roman Psalter is evaluated, and his method in composing the Hexaplaric (Gallican) and the Iuxta Hebraeos (Hebrew) Psalters is explored. Finally, the chapter provides a summary of the reception of the different Latin Psalter traditions.

Abstract:
Abstract Abstract: The Vulgate Acts, Epistles, and Apocalypse are first attested in manuscripts dated around the sixth century: these texts, united with Jerome’s revision of the Gospels, have been transmitted in the manuscript tradition under the name of Jerome. At the beginning of the twentieth century, the attribution to Jerome was questioned and Pelagius was proposed as the reviser of these writings. Another hypothesis, that the reviser was Rufinus the Syrian, a member of the Pelagian circle, was advanced on the basis of the dating of the Primum quaeritur, the prologue to the Vulgate Pauline Epistles, and the correspondence of Rufinus’s citations to the Vulgate. However, this theory is founded on uncertain grounds. This chapter assesses earlier hypotheses and underlines the necessity of addressing the problem of the authorship of the Vulgate New Testament outside the Gospels from different perspectives and employing new methodologies.

Full text
Abstract:
Chapter 2 concerns the same Henrician and Edwardian bibles, but focusing now on the humanist scholarship that infiltrates their paratexts and the related debates over whether the Reformation’s philological–historical turn should be read as a harbinger of Enlightenment demystification, whether its attention to the literal sense rendered the Old Testament largely irrelevant, or whether, at bottom, Reformation-era exegesis differs only superficially from medieval and patristic. The paratexts under consideration, whose humanism does owe much to St. Jerome and Nicholas of Lyra, address translation protocols, biblical authorship, canon formation, exegetic ground rules, the appeal to extra-biblical testimony, and the spiritual relevance of the Old Testament’s literal sense. A fair number remark the underlying Greek or Hebrew, cite Classical sources to elucidate the scriptural text, invoke exegetic principles generally credited to nineteenth-century biblical scholars, or attempt to reconstruct unfamiliar cultural practices implicit in an odd locution or narrative detail. Yet these paratexts appear in the most overtly doctrinal Tudor bibles, their historicist commitments inseparable from their confessional ones.

Abstract:
The place to live and the living space fundamentally shape each person and the possibilities of their own existence. The landscape of humanism defines an environment where the unique local landscape and architecture inspire people to free their minds from the principles and rules that protect the supremacy of the powerful in a way that invites new exploration. The landscape of humanism, as conceived in my work, begins to be born during the early 13th century in central Italy. The progenitor who initiated this transformation by his life example is Saint Francis of Assisi. The life of this man subsequently influenced European civilization not only in the spiritual and philosophical sphere, but also in the sphere of material aesthetics, represented by beautiful art and architecture. The landscape of humanism, thanks to the personal influence of Saint Francis, has helped to give birth to a new creative generation whose works are beginning to speak not only in the local italian language, but at the same time are beginning to use the local landscape and architecture to tell the life stories of people who are not written about in The Bible and who are not the powers of this world. Through this milestone, it is the creative freedom of the new generation that has helped to change the mindset, the rules and the laws of those who set them. In the landscape of humanism, works whose creators are already known by name and whose authorship can be documented appear in art and architecture. A whole new chapter of art history begins here, as citizen investors appear whose influence on the subject of the artwork is evident. The business relationship between the investor and the artist sets new rules and this collaboration begins to influence the creation and existence of the artwork itself. The artistic centre of the landscape of humanism is the Florentine Republic, whose exceptionally successful commercial potential in 13th-century Europe granted it an unexpected autonomy and a position of eminence. Florentine Republic was so influenced by the legacy of Saint Francis that it became the cradle of artists who began to write new rules, were personally responsible for their work to the investor, and received financial rewards for their work, of which there is already written evidence. Florence is the city that is the cradle of a new generation of artists able to author the expression of their work for their client. The personalities who transformed central Italy into a landscape of humanism, and at the same time represent the artistic beginning of the liberation of the mind and spirit from the dictates of the times, are the subject of this work. The authorial differences of the selected artists, differing in their elaboration and in the way of depicting the same assignment, are the purpose of my thesis. The aim of this thesis is to present the landscape of humanism through the artists whose works of art represent this transformation, which at the same time has provided artists with a dignified and desirable place in the hierarchy of the society. The artists working in the landscape of humanism that will be examined in my thesis are Bonaventura Berlinghieri, Coppo di Marcovaldo, Giunta Pisano and Cimabue.
