Autor: Clancy, Frank
Resumen: “There is an elusive quality about 'Shishak'.”
That is the first line of my original paper
“Shishak/Shoshenq's Travels” (JSOT, 86, 1999:
3-23) and I had no idea at the time how elusive
he really was. To put the most positive spin on
the reception of my paper, it received a very
lukewarm response. (One scholar claimed my
arguments and interpretations were “bizarre”!
Needless to say, he is not on my Christmas list)
Nevertheless, I believe more than ever, my main
arguments were valid.
My main arguments were as follows: the general
interpretation of the list makes unwarranted
assumptions that Shoshenq went to the
Transjordan across the highlands past Gibeon;
it is not legitimate to pick and choose names
from different rows in the inscription in order to
“interpret” particular routes; Shoshenq did not
conquer various cities creating layers of
destruction, including more locations than can
be listed on the list; and, Jerusalem probably is
not on the list.
Since 1999, more information is available about
Shoshenq I, about his regnal term, his age, and
when it may have been suitable for him to invade
Asia. In addition, more information is available
about various locations on the list which requires
a very different route than the ones chosen by
many scholars...2022-01-01T00:00:00ZMarc van de Mieroop, Historia del Próximo Oriente antiguo (ca. 3000-323 a.n.e.).

Resumen: Marc Van De Mieroop es un reconocido
asiriólogo y egiptólogo belga que imparte clases
en Columbia University. Publicó muchas obras,
pero esta, puntualmente, fue publicada en inglés
en Oxford, en el año 2015. La edición que
reseñaré corresponde a la traducción al español
publicada por Editorial Trotta, en el 2020. El libro
trata sobre los períodos y orígenes de las
antiguas civilizaciones, desde los orígenes de la
escritura hasta el período de los imperios del
primer milenio a.C. La obra cuenta con 1064
páginas, incluyendo la bibliografía, mapas,
cuadros y toda clase de instrumentos que el
autor utiliza para su mejor explicación.
El libro se divide en tres partes; la primera parte,
que excluye el capítulo 1, donde el autor nos
introduce en la geografía de la zona a tratar, la
prehistoria, etc.; comienza con el surgimiento de
las ciudades-estado; la segunda parte se enfoca
en los Estados territoriales en sus fases más
maduras, y la tercera y última parte, habla del
esplendor de los más grandes imperios que han
construido la antigüedad del Próximo Oriente...2022-01-01T00:00:00ZDid the ptolemaic imperial politics influence the language of the septuagint?Gienini, Olga A.https://repositorio.uca.edu.ar/handle/123456789/161092024-08-29T12:48:00Z2022-01-01T00:00:00ZTítulo: Did the ptolemaic imperial politics influence the language of the septuagint?
Autor: Gienini, Olga A.
Resumen: During the Hellenistic period, the Egyptian Jewish communities were forced to venerate the Ptolemaic rulers as gods with the penalty of martyrdom to those who publicly refused to accept the king as god during the enactment of the imperial cult. It is so narrated in the Second Book of Maccabees where a whole family is tortured and condemned to a cruel death because they want to keep the covenant commitments. In the climax of the story (2 Macc 7:6) a short prayer rises from the lips of one of the martyrs trusting in their future resurrection. The prayer is a quotation of Deut 32:36a, a brief chorus motif that is also repeated in Ps 134:14 LXX) and is the only biblical quotation in the whole book. The Greek version of the chorus adopts a special vocabulary using a passive form of verb παρακαλέω with divine subject even when other lexical options were available. And even more astonishing is that the same translation is kept in other passages as well (Judg 2:18 and 2 Sam 24:16 // 1 Chr 21:15). This option of the Greek writers would probably sound strange to a Greek audience not familiarized with biblical traditions and it literally translates similar forms of the Hebrew root נחם...2022-01-01T00:00:00Z
