Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'COS I zeigt bereits deutlich an, dass der unmittelbare Vorlaufer Pritchard und alle vergleichbare fruheren und gleichzeitigen Unternehmen ahnlicher Art auf unschlagbare Weise uberholt werden sollen...Dem Verlag, dem Herausgeber und seinen Mitarbeitern verdanken wir den Anfang eines Werkes, das alles Vergleichbare in den Schatten stellt und das sicher der biblischen Forschung viele neue Impulse und Erkenntnisse vermitteln wird. Verlag und Herausgeber wunschen wir die Kraft zu baldigen Vollendung des grossen Vorhabens.' Oswald Loretz, Ugarit Forschungen, 1996. 'Given the high quality of this compendium, one of the editor's hopes for this series would seem to be well founded, namely, the The Context of Scripture will become a standard reference work in college, seminary, and university libraries well into the twenty-first century.' Gary N. Knoppers, Review of Biblical Literature, 2000.

Reseña del editor:

The Context of Scripture illuminatingly presents the multi-faceted world of ancient writing that forms the colourful background to the literature of the Hebrew Bible. Designed as a thorough and durable reference work for all engaged in the study of the Bible and the ancient Near East, and involving approximately 90 of the world's outstanding scholars in the field, it provides reliable access to a broad, balanced and representative collection of Ancient Near Eastern texts that have some bearing on the interpretation of the Bible. Translations of recently discovered texts are included, alongside new translations of better-known texts and in some cases the best existing translations of such texts. The substantial three-volume work, with its specially designed page layout and large format, features full cross-referencing to comparable Bible passages, and new, up-to-date bibliographical annotations with judicious commentary. Its many distinct advantages over other collections will ensure the place of The Context of Scripture as a standard reference work for the 21st century.
