Texts and Contexts of Jeremiah
The Exegesis of Jeremiah 1 and 10 in Light of Text and Reception History
edited by K. Finsterbusch and A. Lange
Based on the examples of Jeremiah 1 and 10, this volume contains contributions of the textual reception and of the exegesis of both chapters. Although textual history and reception history are to be distinguished from each other, they are interconnected, as the textual history of any biblical book is also part of its reception history. Jeremiah 1 and 10 are ideal “test cases” because their textual traditions (MT-Jer and LXX-Jer and its Hebrew Vorlage respectively) differ most significantly in terms of rhetoric, structure and content. The volume demonstrates how the Jeremiah’s reception history helps to better understand the textual history of both chapters.

"...This is an extremely valuable study of Jer 1 and 10 that demonstrates the importance of each version as a distinct and coherent text with its own worldview and hermeneutical perspective." --Marvin A. Sweeney, Claremont School of Theology, Review of Biblical Literature 4.20.2017
