Abstract
This pilot study outlines the diverse and at times interwoven textual traditions of the story of Susanna in the Syriac Bible. There are three different versions of the story aside from the Syrohexapla and the revision of Jacob of Edessa, namely the ‘Peshitta’ version, another here dubbed ‘Sinai Susanna’, and finally the so-called ‘Harklean’ version. This paper seeks to describe the kinds of relationships that exist between these textual traditions as well as to suggest what type of critical edition might best display these connections. Additionally, the Sitz im Leben of the ‘Harklean’ version is briefly discussed, reflecting on whether the version’s unique literary features betray a Jewish or a Christian background.
这项试点研究概述了叙利亚圣经中苏珊娜故事的不同且有时交织的文本传统。除了Syrohexapla和Edessa的Jacob的修订外，这个故事有三个不同的版本，即“Peshitta”版本，另一个在这里被称为“Sinai Susanna”，最后是所谓的“Harklean”版本。本文试图描述这些文本传统之间存在的各种关系，并提出哪种类型的评论版最能体现这些关系。此外，还简要讨论了“哈克伦”版本的Sitz im Leben，反思了该版本独特的文学特征是否背叛了犹太或基督教背景。
期刊介绍：
The journal brings all aspects of the various forms of Aramaic and their literatures together to help shape the field of Aramaic Studies. The journal, which has been the main platform for Targum and Peshitta Studies for some time, is now also the main outlet for the study of all Aramaic dialects, including the language and literatures of Old Aramaic, Achaemenid Aramaic, Palmyrene, Nabataean, Qumran Aramaic, Mandaic, Syriac, Rabbinic Aramaic, and Neo-Aramaic. Aramaic Studies seeks contributions of a linguistic, literary, exegetical or theological nature for any of the dialects and periods involved, from detailed grammatical work to narrative analysis, from short notes to fundamental research. Reviews, seminars, conference proceedings, and bibliographical surveys are also featured.
