The story of Massah-Meribah is a pluriform tradition within the Hebrew Bible. Part One of this book uses redaction analysis to assess diachronically the six reminiscences of this tradition within Deuteronomy (Deut 6:16; 8:15; 9:22; 32:13, 52; 33:8). The relative chronological relationship of these texts, and the tradition components they preserve, reveals a framework of five formative stages of this story's tradition-history from the perspective of the tradents responsible for the production of Deuteronomy. Part Two is a redactional study of the tradition's narratives in Exod 17:1-7 and...

Koine Greek Grammar and its accompanying Workbook and Answer Key & Guide have been in the making for decades. It was first a small manual Kairos Greek Grammar; then it grew into a fully integrated and hyperlinked CD that has been published by Logos Bible Software (2005). Now, this current handbook--KOINE GREEK GRAMMAR: A BEGINNING-INTERMEDIATE EXEGETICAL AND PRAGMATIC HANDBOOK--has been thoroughly expanded to include my more explicit description of marked, emphatic, prominent, and pragmatic features of Greek, ideas that were nascent in KAIROS, but now grounded in a communication theory...

Die Studie untersucht Ps 145 sowie das kleine Hallel (Ps 146-150) und eroffnet einen neuen Blick auf den Schluss des Psalters. Sie bietet eine ausfuhrliche Analyse der Einzelpsalmen und zeigt so erstmals umfassend den intertextuellen Charakter dieser Psalmen auf. Dabei erweisen sich diese Schlusspsalmen als hochreflektierte theologische Texte, die anhand zahlreicher Textbezuge die alttestamentliche Schrifttradition bedenken und in die Redeweise des Hymnus transformieren. In diesen Psalmen begegnen sich die Phanomene "Hymnus" und "Schriftauslegung." Ps 145 und 146-150 sind darum als...
