T&T Clark Handbook of Septuagint Research Summary

T&T Clark Handbook of Septuagint Research by Dr William A. Ross (Reformed Theological Seminary, USA)

Students and scholars now widely recognize the importance of the Septuagint to the history of the Greek language, the textual development of the Bible, and to Jewish and Christian religious life in both the ancient and modern worlds. This handbook is designed for those who wish to engage the Septuagint in their research, yet have been unsure where to turn for guidance or concise, up-to-date discussion. The contributors break down the barriers involved in the technical debates and sub-specialties as far as possible, equipping readers with the tools and knowledge necessary to conduct their own research. Each chapter is written by a leading Septuagint scholar and focuses upon a major area of research in the discipline, providing an overview of the topic, key debates and views, a survey or demonstration of the methods involved, and pointers towards ongoing research questions. By exploring origins, language, text, reception, theology, translation, and commentary, with a final summary of the literature, this handbook encourages active engagement with the most important issues in the field and provides an essential resource for specialists and non-specialists alike.

T&T Clark Handbook of Septuagint Research Reviews

... William A. Ross and W. Edward Glenny along with their well-qualified contributors have performed the tremendous service of delivering The T&T Clark Handbook of Septuagint Research. * Niedergall *
The editors have done students and scholars a tremendous service. Hopefully the work will be widely read and consulted, as it takes us to the cutting edge of LXX scholarship, and beyond. * Journal for the Study of the Old Testament *
Research is in constant evolution. Each generation needs an up to-date review of the status quaestionis of the current discipline, and in the last few decades the Septuagint has experienced a new renaissance as the Bible of Hellenistic Jews and first Christians, and a privileged witness of the genuine Hebrew Bible, as attested by some Qumran documents. This handbook is the most recent introduction to the main topics of the Septuagint, written by renowned scholars from across the globe, and is an indispensable tool to navigate through the complex history of the biblical text. * NATALIO FERNANDEZ MARCOS, EMERITUS RESEARCH PROFESSOR. CSIC. MADRID, SPAIN *
William Ross and Edward Glenny, themselves seasoned Septuagint scholars, have provided an essential complement to other reference works on the important topic of Septuagint research. Anyone working in this field will want this book on their shelf to consult the status quaestionis of a thorough and judiciously chosen range of research topics by leading scholars of the Greek versions of the Jewish Scriptures. The various methodologies represented point the way to the need for future research. A must-read for every PhD student considering topics to pursue in this field. * KAREN H. JOBES, GERALD F. HAWTHORNE PROFESSOR EMERITA OF NEW TESTAMENT GREEK & EXEGESIS, WHEATON COLLEGE GRADUATE SCHOOL, USA *
