This is a brief presentation of the mid-seventeenth-century illuminated Judeo-Persian copy of Nizāmī’s Khosrow and Shīrīn from the collection of the Museum for Islamic Art in Jerusalem. The Khamsa of Nizāmī Ganjavi (d. 1209) is one of the most famous medieval Persian love stories and one of the most admired poetical works ever written in the Persian language. Khosrow and Shīrīn (composed 1175/6-1191) is the second book in the Quinary and recounts the tragic love story of the Sasanian king Khosrow II Parviz and the Armenian princess Shīrīn.

Abstract:

AbstractFrom the late thirteenth century onwards, the depictions of the Siege of Jerusalem and the eventual annihilation of the city and its inhabitants are generally full of horrifying details, which visualise the final vengeance of the Lord against His own people. The Hornby Hours exaggerate the negative side of the Jews’ fate, whereas the opening miniature in Maerlant’s Wrake, Museum Meermanno 10 B 21, is a factual account, based entirely upon the most positive interpretation of Jacob van Maerlant’s poem Wrake van Jerusalem.

In this regard, we specifically highlight the asymmetric power dynamics as a result of Israel’s occupation of East Jerusalem, and how this political reality is addressed or avo

Abstract:

In the article the author will attempt to interpret the architectural structure of the Jewish Museum in Berlin, designed in 1989 by Daniel Libeskind. The context of deliberations presented here will rely on a broadly understood idea of tower, an entity identical with the Judaic as well as Christian vision of the Heavenly Jerusalem. However, the key to the metaphor is the assumption that the structure symbolizes a toppled tower, which in its turn is a meaningful analogy to the concepts derived from the issues of the Holocaust.

The first thing a reader should know about this book is that it was written from Jerusalem. No Jewish city in history, certainly no diaspora city, can hope to compete with Jerusalem. Looking down from Jerusalem, New York looks decidedly grim. As Lederhendler notes with admirable brevity, the “events of May–June 1967 threw into relief the apparent gulf between Israelis (who could fend for themselves) and Jews (who could not)” (190). Diaspora condemns Jews to mere ethnic existence, to life as one group among others. In the 1960s New York Jews recognized “that Diaspora life had become existential

Abstract:

The late-fourth century work called On the Destruction of Jerusalem (De Excidio Hierosolymitano), or “Pseudo-Hegesippus”, records the history of the Roman-Jewish War (66-73 CE) and particularly the destruction of Jerusalem and its Temple by the Romans in 70 CE. As a Christian version of this history based largely upon Flavius Josephus’ earlier Jewish War, De Excidio understands himself to be telling the story of the effective death of the Jews in history. One major aspect of this narrative, I argue, is a discourse of Jewish disease, wherein Ps-Hegesippus portrays the Jews as “sick” with the pl

The work, which moves between apologetics for his faith and political and religious philosophy was primarily a daring essay that categorically denied the rule of religion and advocated tolerance and freedom of thought.

AbstractIn BJ 4:286-288 Josephus is presenting an episode of the war: an inner-Jewish conflict between the people of Jerusalem and the Zealots. In this conflict the Idumeans join the party of the rebels. A stormy weather with earthquake is interpreted by both parties as a sign of an imminent action of God, who rescues Jerusalem and beats the enemies outside the city. The article argues for an interpretation of this theme on the background of the Zion-tradition with strong influences from the book of Isaiah (chap. 29 and 30).

Abstract:

Abstract Evidence of the presence of references to Jewish culture in Anna Frajlich's work can be found in many of her poems. However, the connection with Judaism is most strongly verbalized in her poetic cycle “Wiersze izraelskie” [Israel poems], included in Ogrodem i ogrodzeniem [Garden and fence, 1993], Frajlich's first volume of poems to be published in Poland. The cycle was created during the author's visit to Eretz Israel in 1991. The cycle is comprised of seven parts, each with its own title, which differ in terms of subject matter, style, and genre. Poems range from a poetic picture to

Its function in Acts 13:41 underscores the redemptive importance of Paul's "report" of God's "work" among the Gentiles: to dispute the prophet's "report" (ἐκδιηγέομαι) is to reject God's bid to save God's people.

The chariot-shaped throne of God in the heavens (merkābāh) from Ezekiel’s visions (Ezek 1; 10) was the subject of the earliest Jewish mystical speculation. Hence, it is not surprising that there are numerous allusions and references to merkābāh mysticism in the Targum Jonathan to the Book of Ezekiel. This article analyzes Targum texts containing elements of merkābāh mysticism, namely the image of God sitting on the throne-chariot, the appearance and function of the four living beings, God’s glorification by celestial beings, the motif of the mystic ascending/rising to the heavens, the descript

A critical reading of Hannah Arendt’s Eichmann in Jerusalem In her book Eichmann in Jerusalem Hannah Arendt concluded that the Eichmann trial taught us the lesson of the ‘fearsome, word-and-thought-defying banality of evil’. Arendt explained the concept of banality as thoughtlessness: Eichmann did not realize what he was doing when he planned and executed the Final Solution of the Jewish Question in Nazi Germany. In this article Arendt’s analysis of Eichmann’s evil is criticized from an internal perspective: the conclusion that Eichmann was thoughtless cannot be founded

Abstract The “Four Empires” scheme appears in literature from around the ancient Near East, as well as in the biblical book of Daniel. Daniel’s scheme was adopted in subsequent Jewish literature as a basic division of world history. In addition, the book of Daniel appears to have had a prominent place in the Qumran library. Scholars have identified, or suggested, the existence of the “Four Empires” scheme in two texts found among the Qumran scrolls, the “New Jerusalem” text (4Q554), and, especially, in the so-called “Four Kingdoms”(!) text (4Q552–553).

Abstract:

This article identifies and analyzes four passages in the ancient Chinese Christian manuscript Yishen Lun (YSL) that exhibit distinct Jewish characteristics. The phrase “yizhong zuo shenghua” (lines 356–358) mirrors the Book of Acts’ theme of “sanctification of the Gentiles,” rooted in the Jewish dichotomous worldview, placing Jews, or Shihu Ren, at the center. The author’s use of this phrase distinguishes him from yizhong ren (Gentiles) and aligns him with Shihu Ren. In lines 256–263, YSL directly attributes messianic declarations to Jesus, a central issue in Jewish accusations of false Messi

Abstract:

Abstract Luke’s reference to the census administered by Quirinius presents a difficulty to historians, as it places Jesus’s birth ten years later than the synchronisms in Luke 1 and 3 indicate. Because the Lukan narratives sometimes exhibit flexibility with respect to historical chronology (e.g., Acts 5:35–37), it is possible to read the census as signaling something other than the date of Jesus’s birth. I argue that, for an audience familiar with Josephus’s treatment of Judas the Galilean in book 18 of Jewish Antiquities, the alignment of Jesus’s birth with Quirinius’s census can be understoo

The first book explores how different Muslim traditions have come to view Jews and Judaism based on interpretations of the Islamic sources and history.

Abstract The Byzantine Chronographer Syncellos claims that καινὴ κτίσις („new creation“) in Gal 6:15 is taken from the „Apocalypse of Moses“. He means the Book of Jubilees – and is right. Paul has both the concept and the phrase from Jub 1:29. The context in Jubilees deals with a reconstitution of the world and Israel focusing on the promise of a new covenant known from Jer 31:31–34MT // 38:31–34LXX, Ez 36:24–28 and Dt 30:6. The renewed Israel will be gifted with the Spirit and a new heart that enables all Israelites to do the law by nature. It is this promise of pneumatic existence and a rene
