While the postexilic Books of Chronicles rewrite earlier narratives from Samuel and Kings, Ben Sira's Praise of the Ancestors offers a new presentation of biblical history from the Genesis patriarchs to Nehemiah, prior to the praise of the high priest Simon. Whereas older scholarship regarded the historiography of Chronicles and Ben Sira as secondary and derivative, today there is renewed interest in these works as significant theological and cultural documents. Both Chronicles and Ben Sira present a theological message that involves the creation of a national identity centered on temple piety. The essays in this volume investigate how both works rewrite their source materials on particular biblical characters and themes. Some chapters consider the portrayal of kings like David, Rehoboam, Hezekiah, Manasseh, Josiah, and Zedekiah. Other chapters deal with prophets like Samuel and Elijah, while further essays offer perspectives on Ben Sira's Praise of the Ancestors as a whole. This Festschrift honors Professor Pancratius C. Beentjes, who has made a significant contribution to scholarly research into the Books of Chronicles and Ben Sira. 410 0$aDeuterocanonical and cognate literature studies ;$vv. 7. 606 $aRELIGION / Biblical Criticism & Interpretation / Old Testament$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aRELIGION / Biblical Criticism & Interpretation / Old Testament. 676 $a222/.6067092 701 $aBeentjes$b Pancratius Cornelis$0895370 701 $aCorley$b Jeremy$0920852 701 $aGrol$b Harm van$01056647 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456515503321 996 $aRewriting biblical history$92491168 997 $aUNINA
