SUMMARY:Searching for Scribal Curriculum in Ancient Israel
DESCRIPTION:Professor William Schniedewind will present the outlines of his research in progress—a book on Scribal Education in Ancient Israel. The research proposes that outlines of scribal curriculum in early Israel can now be reconstructed based on his interpretation of the recently fully published inscriptions from Kuntillet Ajrud and using parallels with Mesopotamian scribal curriculum and its adaptations into other Levantine scribal settings. \n  \nEvent Flyer\n\nPlease RSVP for Event\n[gravityform id=”48″ title=”false” description=”false” ajax=”true”]\n  \n

SUMMARY:To Refer or Not to Refer: Tracking Intertextuality in the Hebrew Bible
DESCRIPTION:Professor Machinist will develop aspects of intertextuality through several examples involving well-known biblical texts\, including Psalm 29—a famous “Canaanite” hymn in the Psalter. This seminar will be held in conjunction with Professor Schniedewind’s Ugaritic seminar. Graduate students are encouraged to read Psalm 29 and Y. Avishur’s chapter on “Psalm 29” in Studies in Hebrew and Ugaritic Psalms. \n  \n  \nDr. Peter Machinist\nHarvard Divinity School \nEvent Flyer

SUMMARY:Sea Peoples and Neo-Hittites in the ‘Land of Palistin’: Recent Discoveries at Tayinat on the Orontes
DESCRIPTION:Recent archaeological discoveries have begun to challenge the prevailing view of the Early Iron Age (ca. 1200-900 BCE) as an era of cultural devolution and ethnic strife\, or a ‘Dark Age’\, in the eastern Mediterranean\, as depicted in the Homeric epics and the Hebrew Bible. This illustrated talk will highlight the exciting discoveries of the University of Toronto’s ongoing excavations at ancient Tayinat. \nTIMOTHY HARRISON\n(University of Toronto) \nCosponsored by the\nUCLA Department of Near Eastern Languages & Cultures\nUCLA Cotsen Institute of Archaeology

SUMMARY:New Light on the Egyptian Origin of the Hebrew Alphabet
DESCRIPTION:The publication of a new inscription from Theban Tomb 99 sheds new light on the early history of the Hebrew Alphabet.  This ostracon is a bilingual “abecedary” written in Egyptian Hieroglyphic and Semitic.  It gives further evidence for an Egyptian connection to the origins of the early Hebrew alphabet. \nSponsored by the\nUCLA Near Eastern Languages & Cultures \nCosponsored by the\nUCLA Alan D.

SUMMARY:The Adoption of the "Adoption" Formula in Biblical Literature
DESCRIPTION:The metaphor of adoption saturates biblical literature\, yet there is no discrete adoption law in the Hebrew Bible. This metaphor did not draw upon one particular source or ancient Near Eastern legal tradition\, but had a wide range of associations rooted in familial and political life. The performative and ritual nature of adoption in the ancient Near East\, too\, is central to understanding the evolution of this metaphor and why it is so pervasive in biblical literature.
