Description : Title: The Brooklyn Museum Aramaic Papyri: New Documents of the Fifth Century B.C. from the Jewish Colony at Elephantine Author: uncredited author Editor: Emil G. Kraeling - Emil Gottlieb Heinrich Kraeling (born 1892) was an American Lutheran biblical scholar and Aramaicist. He came from an extended German-American Lutheran family. Kraeling attended the Lutheran Seminary of Philadelphia from 1909 to 1912, an then was associate professor of Old Testament at Union Seminary. Among his best known works was a study of Job The Book of the Ways of God. In 1937 he published papers in agreement with Henri Frankfort identifying a woman in the Burney Relief as the Lilith of later Jewish mythology. [Courtesy Wikipedia.] Publisher: Published for the Brooklyn Museum by the Yale University Press City: Brooklyn Year: 1953 Binding Style: Hardcover Pagination: 319 pages plus plates Width: 9 Height: 11.25 Book Details: From the Historical Introduction In 1947 the Egyptian Department of the Brooklyn Museum, which owes its existence to the heirs of the American Egyptologist Charles Edwin Wilbour, received from the estate of his daughter, Miss Theodora Wilbour, the important collection of Aramaic papyri from Elephantine in Upper Egypt, which are the subject of this publication. These papyri, the largest single collection in the Western world, are significant not only because they add considerably to our store of Egyptian Aramaic documents but because they contribute to our knowledge of Jewish men and women who lived in a remote Aramaic-speaking colony at the southernmost frontier of Egypt in the days of Nehemiah (the second half of the 5th century B.C). Condition / Notes: This vintage volume is bound in blue cloth covers with a marbled leather backstrip showing raised bands as well as stamped gilt lettering/ornamentation. There is some light rubbing to the covers and at the corners/edges. The binding is solid. The text block is adorned with marbled endpapers and speckled edges. The title page features the seal of the Brooklyn Museum in blue. The pages are clean with mild age toning, very occasionally heavier in the margins. This work is lavishly illustrated with numerous photographic plates depicting the original papyri.
