Abstract: One of the key texts in the Old Testament, both in its own right and as viewed by
Christian authors, is the account of the sacrifice of Isaac by Abraham in Genesis
22,1-18.1 The present essay will attempt: 1) to understand the meaning of Genesis
22,1-18 (Part I); 2) to study how the Epistle to the Hebrews interprets Genesis
22,1-18 (Part II); 3) to outline how Cardinal John Henry Newman's book, A
Grammar of Assent, may justify a faith-centered hermeneutic with regard to the
exegesis of the first two parts of this paper (Part III).2004-01-01T00:00:00ZIssues in Bible translation 2 : when tradition prevails over good parsing.

Abstract: The need for this research paper arose from a historical contingency. The
Malta Bible Society decided to publish a new edition of its Bible in Maltese, 11-
Bibbja, first published in 1984, and set up a Revision Commission to prepare the
text for the new edition. Towards the end of its revision work in 1995, the
Commission was reviewing Isaiah and accepted the proposal to change the 1984
text of Is 53,11 b in order to integrate the improvements to the text made by
members of the 'Mitchell Dahood School'.2004-01-01T00:00:00ZDiscover the Bible. A Manual for Biblical Studies [Boor review]/library/oar/handle/123456789/321982018-07-25T01:32:54Z2004-01-01T00:00:00ZTitle: Discover the Bible. A Manual for Biblical Studies [Boor review]
