商品簡介
A historian of Judaism, Heger challenges common scholarly interpretations of 1 Enoch and the Dead Sea Scrolls with respect to two related problems. The first concerns the imposition of modern concepts and ways of thought on ancient texts, and the second concerns interpretation of texts influenced by the interpreter's personal cultural background. In particular, he repudiates the allegation that significant texts of the Dead Sea Scrolls proclaim a dualistic theology of Persian origin and influence, and a pre-deterministic world order for nations and individuals. His topics include rabbinic and Qumran interpretation systems, whether Enoch is complementary or alternative to Mosaic Torah, and jubilees and the Mosaic Torah.
