Seeking the Favor of God: The development of penitential prayer in Second Temple JudaismMark J. Boda, Daniel K. Falk, Rodney Alan Werline Society of Biblical Lit, 2006 - 300 páginas The essays collected in this volume investigate the development of prayers of penitence within Jewish literature of the Hellenistic and Roman periods. The book provides a critical overview of the present state of research on these prayers, and leading experts in the field use a variety of methodologies to investigate afresh various texts from the Hebrew Bible, apocryphal (deuterocanonical) and pseudepigraphical works, and the Qumran corpus in order to provide new insights into this prayer tradition |
