1 - Methodological Framework

I would like to now elusidate our proposed methodological framework to biblical exegesis

Our first goal is to minimize interpretative bias by adhering closely to the morphosyntactic and lexical features of the source texts, taking also into consideration period cultural dynamics, thereby producing a sequence of events that aspires to maximal fidelity.

Following the same patterns as all other episodes of this series, we will be emphasizing rigorous philological and hermeneutical dimensions, comprehensive linguistic analysis and exegetical examination of biblical pericopes, focusing on interlinear renditions of the source texts in their original languages.

This methodology aims to produce an unbiased and maximally literal translation through a meticulous process of comparative linguistics and textual criticism.

Textual criticism: Analyzing various manuscript traditions to establish the most reliable base text.
Morphological analysis:
Lexicographical research: Investigating the semantic range and diachronic development of key terms.
Syntactical parsing:
Discourse analysis: Evaluating the broader linguistic context and rhetorical structures.
Comparative Semitics: Utilizing cognate languages to elucidate obscure or hapax legomena terms.
Diachronic linguistics: Considering the historical development of the source language(s) to accurately reflect temporal linguistic variations.
applying the full scope of translation theory: on the basis of principles of formal equivalence to prioritize source-oriented renderings.

The event proper is found in Genesis 18 and 19.

However numerous references are made to Sodom in the following passages, both in the old testament.

Genesis 10:19; 13:10, 12, 13, and in G enesis 14, as well as twice in the Book of Deuteronomy (Dt 29:22; 32:32) and once in the Book of Lamentations (Lm 4:6). But the Sodom motif occurs most of all in the prophetic literature (Is 1:9, 10; 3:9; 13:19; Jr 23:14; 49:18; 50:40; Ezk 16:44-58; Hs 11:8; Am 4:11; Zph 2:9).

Likewise Sodom is also found in many other Jewish texts (the Apocrypha, Pseudepigrapha, Philo of Alexandria and Flavius Josephus), as well as in early Christian writings like the New Testament and several Fathers.

It is evident that all biblical authors were familiar with the event and regarded it as significant.

That includes Jesus Himself bytheway as we will see in the latter part of this video, also because His words on this are actually very telling.

#sodom #gomorrah #bible

In general terms this is a story of civilization collapse presented as a specific sequence of events of catastrophic proportions. It is also not a story of 2 cities but of 5. And possibly more.

Normally when we think of this account we focus on the two most famous or should I say infamous cities, Sodom and Gomorrah, but let's widen our perspective for a moment.

The cities of the valley were five. Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, Zeboiim and Zoar. However Zoar is often not included in the list, that is because Zoar was spared. Genesis 19:19-22, 25, 29 Lot, Abraham's nephew pleaded with the angels to not destroy the town, and the angels agreed.

Now let's begin utilizing source and redaction criticism to delineate potential textual strata.
