Parker, Edward Cadbury Professor of Theology, University of Birmingham, UK University of Birmingham, UK The recovery of the oldest available text of the New Testament continues to occupy the attention of biblical scholars. Because the early printed editions were based on late and incorrect texts, scholars had to study the materials to find older forms of the text. We now know that to study the text of the New Testament and to recover the oldest forms of it, scholars have available over 5,500 Greek manuscripts, translations into early languages, including especially important ones in Syriac, Latin, and Coptic, and quotations in early Christian writers. The task of examining these witnesses, and collecting from them the relevant data, has occupied scholars for over three hundred years. Principal critical editions This collection contains the principal critical editions of the Greek New Testament produced in that time. They are of continuing value in biblical and textual scholarship, for the following reasons: 1. as some of the highest achievements of biblical scholarship; 2. because they sometimes contain materials no longer available; 3. because the editorial decisions of scholars of the past continue to act as a guide and resource to successive generations of scholars. This collection This series, earlier published in a microfiche collection by IDC Publishers, makes available for the first time in a single online collection the principal critical editions, lists of variant readings and collections of manuscript transcriptions and collations from the late seventeenth to the early twentieth century. In addition, a number of the most useful editions of the ancient versions and of ancillary materials have been included. It begins with the first large collection, compiled by John Mill and published in 1707, and ends with von Soden s huge work of It thus spans two centuries of scientific and technical advance, and of manuscript discoveries. This development is parallel to the collection and classification of materials in the natural sciences. The materials in Parts 3 and 4 have been chosen because of their scarcity, their continuing value for scholarly research, and their significance in the development of the discipline.

Archives of the Church of Uganda Online Kept at Uganda Christian University, Mukono The records in this collection document the history of the Church of the Province of Uganda, including some of the first written documents about and originating from Uganda. It covers the period from the arrival of the first Church Missionary Society missionaries at King Mutesa s court (1877) to the early 1980s. Contents of the collection include legal and administrative documents, correspondence, publications, personal records and more from the Offices of the Archbishops and Bishops of Uganda, the Education Secretary General, the General, Financial, and Provincial Secretaries, the Provincial Treasurer, and the Mother s Union. Christianity came to Uganda relatively late compared to many other parts of Africa. The first Church Missionary Society missionaries arrived at King Mutesa s court on 30 June 1877, seventy-eight years after the founding of the Church Missionary Society in Great Britain. However, within eight decades, after having passed through much persecution, Uganda had become one of the most successful mission fields in the world. By 1914, through its indigenous teachers and a few European missionaries, nearly the whole of present-day Uganda had already been evangelized. In 1961 the growth of the Church of Uganda was recognized in the Anglican Communion with the establishment of the Church of the Province of Uganda, Rwanda-Burundi and Boga-Zaire. This collection is an important source not only for the history of Christianity in Uganda, but also for the political and social development of the country, both before and after its independence. This publication was realized with the support of the Kenneth Scott Latourette Fund, Yale Divinity School Library. Contents note: Correspondence, reports, minutes, development plans, policy statements, constitutions and legal documents, contracts, registers (for marriages, baptism and confirmation), publications, personal records, staff lists since the founding of the Church in 1877 up to early 1980s Subjects: History of Africa; History of Religion; Mission Studies; Education; Political issues; Land; Sacraments; Finances; Church ministers; Church work; World Christianity; Ecumenism Dates: 1882 until early 1980s Languages used: predominantly English, Bantu languages Location of originals: Uganda Christian University, Mukono 9 /pcco Forthcoming 2015 E-ISBN Purchase Options and 2015 Prices Outright Purchase: EUR 3,600 / US$ 4,790 /acuo E-ISBN Purchase Options and 2015 Prices Outright Purchase: EUR 17,115 / US$ 22,760 Available on BrillOnline.com Available on BrillOnline.com

The dispersion of these texts in several different volumes complicated their analysis, a problem that is now overcome in DSSR. This second and revised edition of the DSSR forms an updated and expanded publication, which replaces the six volumes of the first edition, as follows: - DSSR II Replaces Preliminary Editions of - DSSR II Deletes Extremely Fragmentary DSSR I with fine-tuned, published editions.

As this critical edition becomes available, Translation Technique in the Peshitta to Ezekiel 1-24: A Frame Semantics Approach takes its role in providing perspectives on the value of the Peshitta to Ezekiel in Old Testament textual studies. 17 Godwin Mushayabasa uses the cognitive linguistics approach of frame semantics to determine what techniques were used to translate Ezekiel 1-24 from Hebrew to Syriac. He observes that the Peshitta was translated at the level of semantic frames, producing a fairly literal translation. In achieving this, the author also invokes interdisciplinary dialogue between biblical textual studies and cognitive linguistics sciences.

The papers deal with a great time span: from the Hittite Empire, via the Hebrew Bible, Judaism and Islam, up to the early Modern Period.

Edward Glenny, University of Northwestern -- St. Paul (MN) Using the VU University syntactically analyzed, hiearchically structured database of ancient languages, the authors compared the Masoretic text of Kings to the Syriac Peshitta translation. The core question in this comparison is: which deviations between the two texts are related to the requirements of the distinct language systems, which are related to other aspects of the translation process, and which are related to the transmission history of the translated text? In The Translation and the Translator of the Peshitta of Hosea, Eric J. Tully offers the first study of the Peshitta conducted via insights and methods from the discipline of Translation Studies. In this commentary Glenny examines the literary features and the Greek text of Micah found in Vaticanus to determine how it would have been understood by early Greek readers who were unfamiliar with the Hebrew.

Guest articles from and exchanges with leading scholars from outside the ranks of Pentecostalism (e.g. Jurgen Moltmann, Harvey Cox, Stanley Hauerwas, and Clark Pinnock) are regularly featured, fostering the fruitful ecumenical and theological interchange that continues to expand between global Pentecostalism and the full spectrum of ecclesial and theological traditions.

39 Journals Novum Testamentum An International Quarterly for New Testament and Related Studies Executive Editors: C. Breytenbach, Humboldt-University Berlin, and J. Thom, University of Stellenbosch Pneuma The Journal of the Society for Pentecostal Studies Edited by Peter Althouse and Robby Waddell, Southeastern University, Florida, USA Review of Rabbinic Judaism Ancient, Medieval, and Modern (Formerly The Annual of Rabbinic Judaism) Edited by Alan J. Avery-Peck Novum Testamentum is a leading international journal devoted to the study of the New Testament and related subjects. This includes text-critical, philological, and exegetical studies, and investigations which seek to situate early Christian texts (both canonical and non-canonical) and theology in the broader context of Jewish and Graeco-Roman history, culture, religion, and literature. For more than 50 years an unrivalled resource for the subject. Articles in English, French and German. Extensive Book Review section in each volume, introducing the reader to a large section of related titles. European Science Foundation Ranking A Pneuma is the Journal of the Society for Pentecostal Studies (SPS). Since its founding in 1970, the SPS has become an international society of scholars interested in Pentecostal and Charismatic studies. Though many of the more than 600 members of the Society belong to one of the Pentecostal or Charismatic churches, a number of others are involved in the Society s annual meetings from other churches or merely from university settings. In 1979, Pneuma first appeared as the Journal of the SPS. The Journal became a major medium for the international discussion of scholarly issues related to Pentecostal and Charismatic studies. Pneuma publishes peer-reviewed articles on matters related to the special interest groups of the SPS, namely, biblical studies, history, theology, missions, praxis, ecumenism, ethics, philosophy, and religion and culture. The Journal cherishes an ecumenical and an international vision as well. The Review of Rabbinic Judaism, the first and only journal to focus upon Rabbinic Judaism in particular, will publish principal articles, essays on method and criticism, systematic debates (Auseinandersetzungen), occasional notes, long book reviews, reviews of issues of scholarly journals, assessments of textbooks and instructional materials, and other media of academic discourse, scholarly and educational alike. The Review fills the gap in the study of Judaism, which is left by the prevailing division of Rabbinic Judaism among the standard historical periods (ancient, medieval, modern) that in fact do not apply; and by the common treatment of the Judaism in bits and pieces (philosophy, mysticism, law homiletics, institutional history, for example). No journal in Jewish studies focuses upon the study of religion, let alone upon the single most important Judaism of all time. 37 Selection of Abstracing & Indexing: ArticleFirst; ATLA Religion; Scopus; TOC Premier; Web of Science Selection of Abstracing & Indexing: Scopus; Index to the Study of Religion; Religion Index One: Periodical; Science of Religion; ATLA Religion Database Selection of Abstracing & Indexing: ATLA Religion Database; Index to the Study of Religion; OCLC ArticleFirst; Science of Religion; TOC Premier 2015: Volume 57, in 4 issues ISSN / E-ISSN Institutional subscription rate Electronic only: EUR / US$ Print only: EUR / US$ Electronic + print: EUR / US$ Individual subscription rate Electronic or Print only: EUR / US$ /nt 2015: Volume 37, in 3 issues ISSN / E-ISSN Institutional subscription rate Electronic only: EUR / US$ Print only: EUR / US$ Electronic + print: EUR / US$ Individual subscription rate Electronic or Print only: EUR 69.- / US$ 95.- /pneu 2015: Volume 18, in 2 issues ISSN / E-ISSN Institutional subscription rate Electronic only: EUR / US$ Print only: EUR / US$ Electronic + print: EUR / US$ Individual subscription rate Electronic or Print only: EUR 63.- / US$ 87.- /rrj Available on BrillOnline.com Available on BrillOnline.com Available on BrillOnline.com

The journal functions as an international forum for contemporary religious discourse with an emphasis on new ways of understanding our multifaceted religious heritage and ourselves as religious beings in this time of major change in world history. Religion & Theology encourages dialogue between divergent theoretical, conceptual and disciplinary languages, with a view to reconceptualising theology (in theory and praxis) in the light of contemporary theory of religion, especially more recent social and rhetorical theories of religion. All contributions are peer-reviewed. The journal also publishes review articles and book reviews. Vetus Testamentum is a leading journal covering all aspects of Old Testament study. It includes articles on history, literature, religion and theology, text, versions, language, and the bearing on the Old Testament of archaeology and the study of the Ancient Near East.
