Torah and Canon

Více o knize

Canonical criticism is the focus of this thoroughly revised edition, where James A. Sanders explores the evolution of biblical literature and its acceptance within faith communities. He addresses critical questions regarding the canon's components, text editing by later generations, and the varied canons across communities. The impact of the Dead Sea Scrolls on canonicity and the differing interactions of Jews and Christians with their texts are also examined. The edition includes a new introduction and updated bibliography, enhancing its relevance for contemporary readers.
