| Summary: | Die Zerstörung Jerusalems durch die Babylonier 587 v.Chr. wird in der Hebräischen Bibel so intensiv reflektiert wie keine andere Katastrophe. Höchst umstritten jedoch ist, wie sich dieses entscheidende Datum zur Entstehung des Pentateuch verhält. Spiegelt sich das Trauma Jerusalems in den fünf Büchern Mose wider? Diese Frage wird in diesem Band von mehreren Blickwinkeln her beleuchtet. Israel Finkelstein und Lester L. Grabbe präsentieren archäologische und historische Gesichtspunkte. Internationale Experten der Pentateuchkritik bieten ein vielfältiges Panorama relevanter Themen, insbesondere biblische Historiographie, Kontakte mit mesopotamischer Kultur vor und während des babylonischen Exils, oder das Problem kultischer Diskontinuität aufgrund der Zerstörung und Wiederherstellung des Tempels von Jerusalem.InhaltsübersichtI.

Resilience and Fortschreibung The destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians in 587 bce is arguably the most tremendous disaster in the Hebrew Bible. How this decisive date relates to the development of the Pentateuch, however, is highly controversial. Is the trauma of Jerusalem reflected in the five books of Moses? This question is addressed from multiple perspectives in this volume. Israel Finkelstein and Lester L. Grabbe discuss the archaeological and historical data. Experts in Pentateuchal criticism from diverse international backgrounds present a rich panorama of relevant themes, including biblical historiography, contacts with Mesopotamian culture before and during the Babylonian exile, and the issue of cultic discontinuity caused by the destruction and restoration of Jerusalem's temple.Survey of contentsI.
