Document Details : Title: Jeremia 52 – ein Schlüssel zum Jeremiabuch Author(s): FISCHER, Georg Journal: Biblica Volume: 79 Issue: 3 Date: 1998 Pages: 333-359 DOI: 10.2143/BIB.79.3.3200622 Abstract : Jer 52 is shown to be the key to the book of Jeremiah in three respects: a) For the investigation of the relationship between the Hebrew and Greek texts of Jer it provides the only independent point of comparison based on its parallel texts, especially 2 Kings 24-25. b) For the connections between the dtr literature and Jer, Jer 52 presents the closest link. This chapter makes clear that the editing of Jer – even when it goes so far as to recapitulate verbatim as here – clearly places it own emphasis. c) For the connections within the book of Jer, ch. 52 represents the longest doublet (with 39,1-10). This doublet together with further links to other texts of Jer permits us to observe the modus operandi and interests of a redaction that stamps the book in a fundamental way. |
