Die Septuaginta und das fruhe Christentum – The Septuagint and Christian Origins
edited by Thomas S. Caulley and Hermann Lichtenberger
English summary: The Septuagint represents the oldest translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek. The essays in this volume locate the translation of the Septuagint within the context of the translation of other religious texts of antiquity, and address specific aspects of the translation in the individual writings and in relation to central concepts. The Septuagint had fundamental significance for emerging Christianity and its literature. The manner in which the Septuagint was appropriated in the New Testament documents is variously developed in the series of essays. Finally the volume broadens its view beyond the New Testament literature to include the Patristic period. German description: Die Septuaginta stellt die alteste Ubersetzung der Hebraischen Bibel ins Griechische dar. In den Beitragen dieses Bandes wird die Ubersetzung der Septuaginta in den Rahmen der Ubersetzung anderer religioser Texte der Antike gestellt und die spezifische Weise der Ubersetzung in den einzelnen Schriften und zu zentralen Begriffen erfasst. Von grundlegender Bedeutung wurde die Septuaginta fur das entstehende Christentum und seine Literatur. In welcher Weise im Neuen Testament die Septuaginta aufgenommen wurde, wird differenziert in einer ganzen Reihe von Untersuchungen entfaltet. Schliesslich wird der Blick uber die neutestamentliche Literatur in die Patristik hinein ausgeweitet.
