The Divine Names in Genesis (Classic Reprint) by John Skinner Pdf

Excerpt from The Divine Names in Genesis The idea of republishing the articles was first recommended to me by the weighty advice of Dr. Driver, who took a keen interest in the dis cussion up to the verge of his fatal illness. While I alone am responsible for the views expressed in the following pages, I put them forward with the greater confidence from knowing that they met with the general approval of one whose accurate and comprehensive scholarship and sound judgment are so universally recognized and es teemed. It is with a deep sense of personal loss that I here record for the last time my indebted ness to him, not merely for suggestions that have strengthened my argument at many points, but for the wise and helpful counsel and encourage ment which he was always ready to impart to fellow-workers in the field of Old Testament study.

The Book of Genesis by S. R. Driver Pdf

Excerpt from The Book of Genesis: With Introduction and Notes The unexpected death of Dr Driver in 1914 has prevented any further revision of this Commentary, as he has left no materials available for the purpose. It is however worth mentioning that since the ninth edition appeared Dr Driver published a revised edition of his Introduction to the Lite rature of the Old Testament (9th Ed. 1913) and in the Addenda to that volume (pp. Xxvi - xxxiii) will be found a few notes bearing on Genesis, and particularly his last and fullest discussion of the controversy about the value of the Names of' God as a clue to the sources of the Pentateuch. He there refers with approval to articles in the Expositor by Dr Skinner, since republished in book form ('the Divine Names' in Genesis, Hodder and Stoughton and also to the Appendix in the Rev. D. C. Simpson s Pentateuchal Criticism (hodder and Stoughton, which was written at Dr Driver's suggestion and had the benefit of his revision. The ninth edition, of which this is a reprint, consequently represents the final form of this Commentary. The progress of Old Testament Criticism and of Oriental archaeological studies will doubtless modify particular statements in it, but the wide range of Dr Driver's knowledge, the accuracy of his scholarship and the sanity of his judgment cannot fail to secure a permanent value for all his work.

A New Commentary on Genesis, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint) by Franz Delitzsch Pdf

Excerpt from A New Commentary on Genesis, Vol. 2 Two solemn revelations open in ch. Xv. The second section of the life of Abraham. The narrative falls into two halves. It is impossible to regard all from beginning to end as occurring in vision. For (1) if one revelation takes place at night, or at least with a transposition to night, the other is made in the day, and indeed at eventicle, the sun being at ver. 12 about to set, and at ver. 17 actually set. And (2) the account of Abraham's believing reception of the promise of a posterity numeious as the stars of heaven ver. 6 separates what pre ceded from What follows, which though it appears from the 16x mm, 7 a, to have immediately succeeded, has yet its own special introduction. Dillmann here carries analysis even farther beyond the bounds of the discernible than Wellhausen does. The safest criterion from Gen. I. To ex. Vi., and one which must only be relinquished for cogent reasons, is the Divine names. The use of these is in both halves of ch. Xv. The same. In both mm is the prevailing one, and With it occurs once in each rm rm, to be read according to the punctuation d?sn figs, a combination of Divine names Which, thus written, is unusual. This mm ms, here twice used, gives to this historical picture in its two departments, as to the prophetic image, Isa. 1. 4 - 9, where it is four times used.

The Babylonian and the Hebrew Genesis (Classic Reprint) by Heinrich Zimmern Pdf

Excerpt from The Babylonian and the Hebrew Genesis This change has naturally had a decisive effect also upon our conception of the biblical narrative. Once it was believed that in the early chapters of the Bible we possessed the record of a divine revelation concerning the origin of the world and of mankind, delivered to Moses and by him Written down. Now we know that these chapters are rather the introduction to a great historical compilation from sources of varied dates and very varied character, which did not attain its present form until after the Babylonian Exile. As was often the case in early times this com pilation was attached to the name of a famous hero of antiquity.

Making Sense of the Divine Name in the Book of Exodus by Austin Surls Pdf

The obvious riddles and difficulties in Exod 3:13–15 and Exod 6:2–8 have attracted an overwhelming amount of attention and comment. These texts make important theological statements about the divine name YHWH and the contours of the divine character. From the enigmatic statements in Exod 3:13–15, most scholars reconstruct the original form of the name as “Yahweh,” which is thought to describe YHWH’s creative power or self-existence. Similarly, Exod 6:3 has become a classic proof-text for the Documentary Hypothesis and an indication of different aspects of God’s character as shown in history. Despite their seeming importance for “defining” the divine name, these texts are ancillary to and preparatory for the true revelation of the divine name in the book of Exodus. This book attempts to move beyond atomistic readings of individual texts and etymological studies of the divine name toward a holistic reading of the book of Exodus. Surls centers his argument around in-depth analyses of Exod 3:13–15, 6:2–8 and Exod 33:12–23 and 34:5–8. Consequently, the definitive proclamation of YHWH’s character is not given at the burning bush but in response to Moses’ later intercession (Exod 33:12–23). YHWH proclaimed his name in a formulaic manner that Israel could appropriate (Exod 34:6–7), and the Hebrew Bible quotes or alludes to this text in many genres. This demonstrates the centrality of Exod 34:6–7 to Old Testament Theology. The character of God cannot be discerned from an etymological analysis of the word yhwh but from a close study of YHWH’s deliberate ascriptions made progressively in the book of Exodus.

The Writers of Genesis by E. Cowley Pdf

Excerpt from The Writers of Genesis: And Related Topics, Illustrating Divine Revelation The Right Rev. Bishop Perry, of Iowa, a most competent witness, reports that some members of the last pan-anglican Council had doubts of por tions of the Bible, notably Genesis, which illustrates the importance of the subject now considered. To them, and to all seekers after the truth, I commend what is here offered to Professors Green and Har per, Bissell and Briggs, Cave and Cheyne, Dods and Driver, and all other Bible students. While I pre sume not to instruct them, I may suggest that the more they yield to negative criticism, the greater is the danger to be apprehended from it. Though the old traditions may be wrong, they do not err in im plying a very ancient date for the Writers of Gene sis, and an early writer of Isaiah 40 - 66.

A Companion to the Book of Genesis (Classic Reprint) by Samuel Hulbeart Turner Pdf

Excerpt from A Companion to the Book of Genesis The author of the following work does not hesitate to acknowledge, that he offers it to the public with some solicitude. Apart from any per sonal considerations, which it would be affectation wholly to disclaim, there are others of a nature eu tirely different and vastly higher, which must make a strong impression on every writer who feels him self to be a moral and responsible agent. To com ment on the sacred Scriptures is to interpret what God formerly revealed and therefore, the attempt should be made with due seriousness of mind, and suitable intellectual preparation. The expositor should possess a competent acquaintance with the principles and laws of interpretation, and also with the various facts which bear, either directly or in directly, oh the points to be illustrated. He should exercise a proper care and judgment in selecting from the sources of information, and in applying his knowledge to the obscurities which are to be cleared up, and the difficulties which are to be removed. Whether these requisitions shall appear to be met. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Book of Genesis, and Part of the Book of Exodus by Henry Alford Pdf

Excerpt from The Book of Genesis, and Part of the Book of Exodus: A Revised Version, With Marginal References, and an Explanatory Commentary In February, 1870, Dean Alford undertook to write an explanatory Commentary on the Old Testament. The first volume was intended to include the Pentateuch. In the course of the year he completed the Book of Genesis, revised it for the press, and placed the first sheet in the printers' hands: he also wrote the Commentary as far as the twenty-fifth chapter of the Book of Exodus; when his work on earth ended, on Jan. 12th, 1871. It is due both to his memory and to those for whose instruction he laboured, that the unfinished volume should be published exactly as he left it. Pains have been taken to make the publication as accurate as possible. But if errors are observed, it will be borne in mind that the difficulty of printing from the manuscript was not slight, and the difficulty of correcting the press was increased by an unforeseen occurrence to the manuscript. It was the Dean's intention to prefix to the Book of Genesis, a general Introduction: but no part of it was actually written. Many important questions, at which he only glances in the Commentary, were to be discussed in the Introduction.

Studies on the Book of Genesis (Classic Reprint) by Henry Barrington Pratt Pdf

Excerpt from Studies on the Book of Genesis Important as Scripture Commentaries are, and indispensable as they must be to the rapid progress of the gospel in Spanish speaking lands, it will be readily seen that the demand for them among the possible Evangelical communicants (most of them very poor) found in Europe, America, North Africa and the former Insular possessions of Spain, including ministers and students for the ministry, is not sufficient to induce any publishing house to risk money in a work like mine; SO that I am reduced to the necessity of doing all the work, and then raising all the money to print it.

Discourses on the Book of Genesis (Classic Reprint) by H. A. Henry Pdf

Excerpt from Discourses on the Book of Genesis The author hopes that this work will not be liable to such objections, but will, by smoothing the way, rather allure the young to a more intimate acquaintance with the Sacred Volume. It consists of Twelve Discourses on the Book of Genesis (from the Creation to the death of Joseph), with an Appendix, treating of the prophetical blessings of Jacob to his Children, in which is explained one of the fundamental principles of Jewish faith. The arrangement of the work into Twelve Discourses is based upon the plan of the Hebrew Bible, in which the Book of Gen esis is divided into Twelve Weekly Sections.
