The Aramaic Bible: Targums in their Historical Context
The Aramaic Bible: Targums in their Historical Context The Aramaic Bible: Targums in their Historical Context
CHILTON Aramaic and Targumic Antecedents of 'Justification' 397 removed—in most cases by some centuries—from the earliest Christian Aramaic. In addition to the analysis of anomalies of language within the Greek Testament, in which the Targumim have a significant (but indirect) role to play, there is also the question of anomalies of meaning: instances in which biblical citations, allusions, or motifs appear outside a generally received, Septuagintal understanding of the Bible. I have suggested elsewhere that the Targumim, and especially Targum Jonathan, may explain why the Bible is so construed. 53 But now that the present phase of Dr McNamara's project is nearly completed, one might anticipate that students of the New Testament will read the Targumim, much as they read the Fathers, the Pseudepigrapha, the codices of Nag Hammadi, and the Stoics: not because every phrase can be assumed to antedate Jesus and/or Paul, but because they reflect indirectly what is otherwise a scantily attested period. On the other hand, such an anticipation has been justifiable for more than a century; perhaps, once again, scholars may find a way to exclude the milieu of early Judaism in the alleged quest for historical meaning. 53.
