Discussing the variants חבלי־מות in Psa 18,5 and משברי־מות in 2 Sam 22,5 I join Talmon in considering them not transmission errors, but synonymous readings. However, I demonstrate that the equating of these two terms as both denoting “birth pangs” is not attested in the Hebrew Bible but is a later exegetical development. I argue ...

Hosea 1:9 is often said to be dependent on Exodus 3:14-15.

Among different explanations of the peculiar reading πόλις ασεδεκ in Isaiah 19:18, the most
probable seems to be the one that regards this expression as an allusion to עיר הצדק in Isaiah 1:26.
However, observations on the translation technique of the LXX-Isaiah make it dubious that this
allusion was created by the translator of Isaiah himself. Additionally, in ...

Images from ancient mythology and literature were predominant mythopoetic components of Russian modernist poetry. Global historical cataclysms of the first decades of the twentieth century, however, prompted Russian poets to turn to biblical imagery. Influenced by revolutionary upheavals, poets began to interpret contemporary events through the prism of biblical archetypes. My essay discusses a number ...
