Mobility instead of exodus


Free Download Mobility instead of exodus: Migration and Flight in and from Africa
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3658400838 | 109 Pages | PDF (True) | 3 MB
Africa is commonly regarded as a "continent on the move" in scholarly observation and mass media reportage. Movement is seen primarily in the direction of Europe. Yet the public debate is characterized by two misconceptions. The first is that high population growth in Africa would almost automatically trigger higher international migration to the neighbouring European continent. There is even talk of a "rush to Europe". The second frequently encountered misconception is that migration and flight in and from Africa is primarily a result of poverty, violent conflicts and environmental degradation. Both are misconceptions that cannot be reconciled with the facts at hand.

Life Preservation in Genesis and Exodus An Exegetical Study of the Teba of Noah and Moses


Free Download Joshua Joel Spoelstra, "Life Preservation in Genesis and Exodus: An Exegetical Study of the Teba of Noah and Moses "
English | ISBN: 9042940719 | 2020 | 418 pages | PDF | 2 MB
Teby is found exclusively in Gen 6-9 and Exod 2:1-10 for the vessels of Noah and Moses, respectively. Suggestive of an inter-textual relationship, tebyis exegetically investigated to identify its source language and meaning to thereby determine its biblical appropriation and theological signification. Once the Flood Narrative and Foundling Narrative are synchronically and diachronically analysed, Babylonian and Egyptian languages, literature, and lexemes are examined to determine the source of teby; also, a recension history of scriptural traditions and daughter translations of the Flood and Foundling Narratives is charted. Exod 15:1-21 is examined, further, to extend the narratival arch of Exod to match that of Gen 6-9, which includes synthetic cosmological and covenantal elements, and temple ideology. Theologically, therefore, the multivocality of teby intimates God’s enshrined protection of a person from threat of death unto renewed life; thus, teby is a terminus technicus for a life-preserving receptacle.
