This volume contains the papers presented to the second meeting of the International Organization for Qumran Studies, held in Cambridge (UK) in 1995. The papers, all dealing with the theme of the meeting, Legal Texts and Legal Issues , are arranged into five sections. The first section, 'New Texts', contains publications of legal texts, including a copy of the Temple Scroll from Cave 4. Section two presents studies on different aspects of 4QMMT, from its use of Scripture to its concept of Holiness and its relevance for understanding the history of Qumran. The following two sections contain studies on legal texts and legal issues, such as purity, divorce, and sabbath legislation. The final section, 'Qumran and the New Testament', focuses on the importance of the Qumran texts for the study of the New Testament. The volume is published in honour of Joseph M.

»Auge um Auge...« : Eine Rezeptionsgeschichte der biblischen Talionsformel im Antiken Judentum /
:
Kaum ein biblisches Zitat ist so bekannt - und zugleich so missverstanden - wie »Auge um Auge, Zahn um Zahn...«. Vor allem aufgrund der Auslegungsgeschichte seiner Rezeption im Matthäusevangelium wurde die Talionsformel zur Chiffre für Vergeltung. Diese Studie zeigt jedoch, dass die Formel weder in der Hebräischen Bibel noch im antik-jüdischen Diskurs auf diese Weise eingesetzt wurde. In den Schriften vom Toten Meer, bei Philo von Alexandrien, Flavius Josephus und in tannaitischer Literatur erscheint sie vielmehr in rechtlichen Debatten über angemessene Sanktionen und Verfahrensnormen. Das matthäische Zitat fällt allein durch die sonst nicht belegte paränetische Auslegung der talio aus dem Rahmen. Few biblical quotations are as familiar - and as misunderstood - as "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth...". Owing largely to the history of interpretation of its reception in the Gospel of Matthew, the talionic formula became a shorthand for retribution. This study demonstrates, however, that neither the Hebrew Bible nor Ancient Jewish discourse employed the formula as a code for retribution. In the Dead Sea Scrolls, Philo of Alexandria, Flavius Josephus, and Tannaitic literature, it functions within legal debates on appropriate sanctions and procedural norms. Matthew's use is distinctive only in genre, offering a parenetic interpretation of the talio .
