Sinossi
Excerpt from The Book of Esther in the Light of History
In placing this novel interpretation Of the Book Of Esther for the consideration Of Biblical and Semitic scholars, I am far from deluding myself into the belief that it will immediately find ready acceptance. As far as the modern critics are concerned, the non-historical character Of the Book Of Esther is at present with them the standard Opinion, and my interpretation would come into collision with what may be properly termed a dogmatic bias. Conservative scholars, on the other hand, might look askance at an interpretation Of a Biblical narrative, which on numerous points deviates from the traditional views. However, the only aim Of scholarship, be it modem or conservative, is truth, and if my solution Of this Biblical problem has attained that goal, I may rest assured that it will finally prevail, notwithstanding the current Opinions.

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book re-examines the Book of Esther from a historical viewpoint, arguing against the idea that it is a legend and presenting evidence that the events described did indeed happen. The author presents an alternative theory, arguing that a certain event during the Persian period, well-known from non-Biblical sources, must have had disastrous consequences for the Jews of the Persian Empire and that the story of Esther in the Bible presents the solution to this crisis. Through thorough analysis of the Biblical narrative, the author presents the historical context of the events as well as the religious and social climate of Persian-controlled Judea. Ultimately, the true subject of this book is the struggle between religious zealotry and tolerance, and how such struggles can lead to misunderstandings and conflict over time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Codice articolo 9781330402061_0
