Summary: | After a dense description of, especially German speaking, modern scholarship on questions of text critique and text history, the analysis focusses on the motif of “Exile” in Jer 52. Furthermore, the discussion refers to 2 Kgs 24-25; 2 Chr 36 and Jer 39, by considering also the Hebrew and Greek versions, including the Antiochene recension, of those texts. As regards the Book of Jeremiah and despite the many cases where the Greek text preserved the older version, it can be learned by the analyzed examples that neither the Septuagint represents the Urtext nor the Hebrew handed down the “end-text.” Textual re-readings in the different literary traditions of these texts are influenced by later religious concepts like “salvation” and “judgment,” or “guilt” and “judgment.” |
