E l presente artículo revisa y sintetiza los estudios sobre la hermenéutica tannaíta. El debate sobre la hermenéutica de este periodo se ha incrementado desde mediados del siglo XX con los descubrimientos de Qumrán. La pregunta, que guía esta parte del estudio, es cuáles fueron los presupuestos de interpretación de las Escrituras que guiaron la tarea hermenéutica entre los tannaítas. La síntesis de los estudios sobre los presupuestos se los ha dividido en tres niveles, en macro, meso y micro hermenéuticos. Esta revisión permite tener una vislumbre de los presupuestos subyacentes detrás de la labor hermenéutica durante el período tannaíta. Un período en el que también se escribió el Nuevo Testamento.

“…This exceptional non‐death was the cause of great speculation for later Jewish and Christian readers of Genesis, and likely the reason why various pseudepigraphic books were written based on the character of Enoch. The five books that make up 1 Enoch reflect the various roles Enoch played in Second Temple literature, such as scribe, sage, diviner, and priest, none of which are evident from the biblical text (Kugel, 173–179; 191–197). In early Christian literature, Enoch is further developed as an esteemed figure, and within rabbinic and Hekhalot literature the figure of Enoch transforms into the angel Metratron, the voice of God.…”

The Pseudepigrapha in Current Research

The Pseudepigrapha is a collection of Jewish and Christian texts usually attributed to ideal figures from the past. The Pseudepigrapha generally date from the Second Temple and early Christian period, approximately 200 B.C.E. to 200 C.E. While the term itself derives from the Greek meaning ‘falsely attributed,’ the function of pseudepigraphic texts is more complex than what in modern society would simply be forgery. Pseudepigraphy itself was not uncommon in the ancient world, and its usage in Jewish and Christian circles should come as no surprise to those familiar with the Greek education system, where pseudonymous writing was a basic pedagogical practice. This article will discuss current research on pseudonymous attribution and its function for the author of a pseudepigraphic text, which assists the author in handling present situations by emulating circumstances and ideal figures from the past. In addition, determining the provenance—whether Jewish or Christian—of individual pseudepigrapha is highly problematic, as these texts were preserved and transmitted by Christians and may therefore have been redacted. The latest research discussing how one might determine the provenance of an individual pseudepigraphic text will be explored.

“…This makes them more suitable for devotional reading than scholarship. James Kugel’s Traditions of the Bible (1998) is a far more interesting compendium of ancient biblical interpretation of the Pentateuch; perhaps a sequel that covers Isaiah will appear 1 day. The editors of the Eerdmans series (the Isaiah volume of which is the briefer and somewhat more interesting of the two) made the controversial decision to use a translation of the Septuagint instead of the Hebrew as their base text, which emphasizes its place in history‐of‐tradition scholarship rather than historical–critical exegesis.…”

The Book of Isaiah in Contemporary Research

This article surveys scholarship on the book of Isaiah since roughly the start of the 21st century. Noting that theories of the book's formation based on internal textual data have not commanded consensus, it calls for stronger methodological controls for models of composition and redaction, on the basis of comparative data from other ancient Near Eastern texts, especially prophetic texts. Although there has been an outpouring of scholarship from every angle, significant recent trends include centripetal/holistic approaches to the book and study of its reception history.
