From Characters to Meaning: Challenges and Limitations in the Semantic Analysis of Church Slavonic Texts

Keywords: Gospel of Luke, Septuagint, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Destruction of Jerusalem, Prophetic, Language and Literature, Intertextuality
Abstract
This study investigates the prophecies of Jesus on the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple as they appear in the Gospel of Luke (13:34–35, and especially 19:41–44; 21:5–6, 20–24; 23:28–31) in light of their intertextual relationship with passages or texts from Scripture. The analysis focuses on how certain terms or expressions of the prophetic language of Jeremiah, and to a lesser extent of Lamentations, are borrowed through the Septuagint version (e.g., ἡμέραι ἔρχονται), recombined, and modified by Luke. This research, however, is not only lexical and comparative but also enters the exegetical field. It explores the reasons for and meaning of the use of LXX Jeremiah in these particular passages of the Gospel of Luke, where Jesus himself is speaking in the midst of the impending catastrophe.
Tîrôš nel Talmud babilonese: ‘vino’ o ‘mosto’?

URL: Tîrôš nel Talmud Babilonese: ‘vino’ o ‘mosto’?
Keywords: Tirosh, Wine, Must, Babylonian Talmud, Alcoholic Beverages
Abstract
Among the various terms indicating alcoholic beverages in Biblical Hebrew we find tîrôš, whose etymology and meaning are still uncertain: it is normally translated as ‘must’, but sometimes seems to be used as synonym of Biblical Hebrew yayin or Biblical Aramaic ḥamrā’, both indicating ’wine’. This article aims to analyze the attestations of tîrôš within the Babylonian Talmud, in order to understand whether in the Talmud it indicates a drink other than wine or whether it is a synonym of it. Attestations of tîrôš, and Rabbinical exegesis of biblical quotations in which the term appears, clearly testify that in Babylonian Talmud the original meaning of tîrôš has been lost, and it is used as a synonym of the word ‘wine’.
