DESCRIPTION
L'interpretazione della Parola per la fine dei giorni ispirata alla tradizione
Questo libro affronta un tema più volte dibattuto dagli studiosi negli ultimi 60 anni: la natura e il genere letterario del pesher. Di fatto, la sua natura è stata spesso definita in rapporto a quella del midrash rabbinico, sia per la sua strategia interpretativa ed espositiva, sia per la presenza del termine midrash nel pesher 4QFlor.Il presente libro analizza gli elementi primari e secondari del genere letterario del pesher, il quale implica l’esercizio dell’intelligenza (binah) delle Scritture. Al contempo esso si propone come latore di una rivelazione, della quale l’autore si appropria attraverso la tradizione ermeneutica e storiografica della sua comunità.Il principio ermeneutico del pesher, in relazione agli avvenimenti della comunità, realizza la sintesi tra interpretazione e rivelazione, come dimostra la formula più volte attestata: “interpretazione della Parola per la fine dei giorni”. Il principio ermeneutico e la tradizione della comunità sono pertanto i due elementi che più caratterizzano la natura del pesher come genere letterario indipendente, distinto dal midrash e da altre forme di interpretazione. The topic of this book has often been a subject of scholarly debate in the last sixty years: the nature and literary genre of pesher. In fact, pesher has regularly been defined in relation to midrash, not only on account of the interpretative and explanatory approaches supposedly shared but also because the term midrash is found in pesher 4QFlor.The present volume analyses the primary and secondary characteristics of the literary genre of pesher. This type of literature involves a specific understanding (binah) of the Scriptures, while at the same time offering itself as a channel of a certain revelation, which the writer makes his own by means of the hermeneutical and historiographical traditions of the community. The interpretative principle of pesher, in dealing with contemporary reality, achieves that synthesis of interpretation and revelation, illustrated by the frequently used formula “the interpretation of the Word for the end of days.” We may say, therefore, that this interpretative principle and the community tradition are two key characteristics that more than other elements set pesher apart as an independent literary genre, to be distinguished from midrash and from other forms of interpretation.
