Theology and Anthropology in the Book of Sirach

"The present volume of English and German essays includes the proceedings of an international conference held in Eichstätt, Germany, in 2017. Twelve essays identify and examine the theological and anthropological distinctions within the Hebrew, Greek, Syriac, and Latin versions of Sirach. Themes of creation, emotions, life, death, wisdom, knowledge, the individual and society, family, gender, mercy, justice, and freedom are but a few of the topics explored in this new collection. Essays shed new light on the intertextual connections between Sirach and Old Testament texts, as well as the reception of Sirach in the New Testament and the early modern era for scholars and students in biblical studies."--Page 4 of printed paper wrapper. "Thirteen essays in English and German shed light on the theology and anthropology of the book of Ben Sira. The present volume includes the proceedings of an international conference held in Eichstaett, Germany, in 2017"--
