Opis:
The article reviews J.J. Pudełko’s book-length study titled Profetyzm w Księdze Syracha [Prophetism in the Book of Sirach]. Following an initial presentation of the book, the author focuses on its methodological aspect and offers an assessment of its merit before discussing the main thesis of Pudełko in the context of other scholarly opinions on the issue. Based on her meticulous analysis of prophetism in the works of the Jerusalem sage, Pudełko concludes that Sirach saw himself as an heir to the Old Testament prophets, as his role of a sage corresponded to the tasks fulfilled earlier by prophets. Although this argument is questioned by most contemporary analysts of the Book of Sirach, still Pudełko’s book constitutes an important intervention in the debate on Sirach’s prophetic self-awareness.

Opis:
The first part of the article synthetically presents the Old Testament Israelites’ attitude to doctors and their activities. It is an essential prerequisite for the depiction of the innovative approach to the issue proposed by Sirach in Sir 38:1-15. Subsequently, the translation of the text’s Greek version into Polish is presented and the pericope’s structure is divided into four parts: I. 38:1-3 – respect for the doctor, II. 38:4-8 – the value of medicine, III. 38:9-11 – the relation of the sick to God, and IV. 38:12-15 – the doctor’s role in treating the sick. The present article is devoted to the exegetico-theological analysis of the first part of the Greek version of Sir 38:1-15, that is of 38:1-3. Even though the article is based primarily on the Greek text of the verses, it takes into account its original Hebrew version as well. Sirach calls the believing Israelites to completely change their perception of doctors and their activities. He encourages his readers not to reject doctors but to treat them with respect and reverence, and, indirectly, not to ignore the doctor’s efforts meant to restore health to the sick one. The sage justifies his novel approach with two arguments. First, doctors were created by God and given the task of aiding the sick in their suffering. They are a mere tool in God’s hands, for God is the only Doctor that can truly heal a person (this aspect is emphasized more by the Hebrew than by the Greek text). Secondly, doctors deserve respect for even kings and dignitaries benefit from their service and treat them with respect and reverence. In 38:1-3 Sirach offers a perfect synthesis of Israel’s traditional belief in God, who is the only doctor able to heal a person, with the Hellenistic influence related to medicine and the people who dabble in it.

Opis:
The main subject of Sir 6:18-37 is acquisition of wisdom. The pericopemay be divided into three parts: vv. 18-22 present the prerequisite for the acquisition of wisdom, namely undergoing wisdom formation; vv. 23-31 deal with one’s submission to wisdom, while the last fragment (vv. 32-37) focuses on the means necessary to obtain wisdom. The present article constitutes an analysis of the first part of Sir 6:18-37, that is Sir 6:18-22. Two sections may be distinguished within this excerpt - in the first one (vv. 18-19) the sage makes use of agricultural imagery to encourage his disciple to make a patient effort to seek wisdom, since the acquisition of wisdom is a long-lasting process that requires a lot of discipline (the process spans a person’s whole life; cf. Sir 6:18). The author emphasizes, however, that those who seek wisdom and undergo wisdom formation will soon be able to take advantage of its fruit. In the second section (vv. 20-22) the author describes a person who refuses to undergo wisdom formation as uneducated (cf. 6:20a) and devoid of intellectual abilities (literally, heartless; cf.6:20b). Lacking patience, such a person refuses to make an effort to receive wisdom education and rejects wisdom altogether. Thus, they will never become wise. Even though wisdom is the province of the few only (cf. 6:22), it is accessible to anyone, regardless of the person’s origin, social status or other external conditions. There is, however, one vital prerequisite, namely, a person’s inner attitude or disposition, their willingness to make an effort and their patience. Only few people fulfil these conditions and acquire wisdom.

Opis:
In his reflection on doctors’ work and the process of treatment (Sir 38:1-15), Ben Sira draws attention to the usage of medications (Sir 38:4-8). Many contemporary Jews were probably recalcitrant to use them as ancient medicine resorted to magic. Magic was also employed in the production of medications. The first part of the article synthetically presents the usage of medicines in ancient Israel on the basis of the Old Testament. Then a literary analysis and exegesis of Sir 38:4-8 is attempted. The present article takes into consideration the Greek version of this pericope, for it constitutes the canonical text of the Book of Sirach (the article nevertheless compares the Greek text to its Hebrew original). The pericope evinces a concentric structure (A – 38:4-5; B – 38:6; A’ – 38:7-8). The verses that frame the pericope refer to medicines (vv. 4–5 are devoted to the justification of their use while vv. 7–8 mention the reasons they are used for). The central part (38:6), in turn, focuses on the origin of medical knowledge. Ben Sira strives to persuade his fellow Jews to use medications as they are not related to magic and pose no threat to believers. It is God who created them, and they come from him. The sage refers in his argumentation to what happened in Marah (cf. Exod 15:25) to justify the use of medicines and their natural origin. Medicaments help cure diseases and afflictions and they restore harmony of creation, disrupted by disease and suffering (38:8). Their divine provenance is also corroborated by the fact that knowledge of medicine and medications was given to people by God (38:6). Hence, people should worship God for this great gift.In Sir 38:4-8 Ben Sira performs a perfect synthesis of contemporary medicine developed by neighboring (pagan) peoples with Israel’s faith (only God can cure a person but he does so through medications; medicine is thus a tool in his hands). The sage noticed the positive value and usefulness of medications but through referring to God and showing the divine provenance of medicine he dispelled any doubts the believers might have had concerning the use of medications to cure a disease.

Opis:
Księga Syracha oprócz licznych mądrościowych maksym zawiera szczególny tekst, który koncentruje się na działaniu Boga i Jego mądrości w dziejach Izraela: Pochwała Ojców (Syr 44-49). Mędrzec z Jerozolimy chciał przez to zaszczepić w sercach swoich uczniów umiejętność teologicznej wizji historii. Układ i interpretacja przedstawionych w tym opisie bohaterów, choć bazuje na tradycji, wynika z interpretacji i kryteriów własnych autora. Jest zastanawiające, iż na koniec opisu mędrzec wraca do początków, nie tylko Izraela, ale dziejów ludzkości, by zamknąć swój opis historii postacią Adama – pierwszego człowieka. Prezentacja Adama w Syr 49,16b jest bardzo pozytywna, autor koncentruje się na chwale i pięknu pierwszego człowieka, pomijając zupełnie aspekt jego upadku. Użyta terminologia łączy postać Adama z kapłańskimi postaciami opisywanymi przez Syracha (Aaron, arcykapłan Szymon), co sugeruje szczególne znaczenie arcykapłana w dziele mędrca z Jerozolimy. Odniesienie do Adama, początku ludzkości zakłada upatrywanie „nowego początku”, w postaci arcykapłana.
The Book of Sirach contains, besides numerous sapiential maxims, a remarkable text focused on the work of God and His wisdom in the history of Israel: The Praise of the Ancestors (Sir 44–49). In this way, a sage of Jerusalem wanted to instill in the hearts of his disciples the ability to view history in the theological way. The order and interpretation of the heroes presented in the passage, while based on tradition, results from interpretation and criteria of the author himself. Interestingly, at the end of the description the sage returns to the beginnings not only of Israel but also of mankind by closing his description with the figure of Adam – the first man. The presentation of Adam in Sir 49,16b is very positive, the author focuses on the glory and beauty of the first man, with complete disregard for such aspect as his fall. The terminology employed connects the figure of Adam with priestly personages described by Sirach (Aaron; Simon, the high priest), which suggests a special significance of the high priest in the work of the sage of Jerusalem. The reference to Adam and the beginning of mankind presumes the recognition of “the new beginning” in the figure of the high priest.

Sir 51
Opis:
The article constitutes an analysis of the final pericope of the Book of the Wisdom of Sirach (Sir 51:13-30) in its Greek version. The text can be divided into two parts: in the first one (vv. 13-22) the author relates his personal experience of seeking and finding wisdom, while in the second part (vv. 23-30) he admonishes those who lack education to join his school and partake of the wisdom he himself has found. The wisdom the sage refers to is of a religious character (he asked for it in prayer – vv. 13b, 14a, 19c; it manifests itself in good deeds – v. 19b). Not only does the author make it clear in the first part of the pericope that the vital requirement for finding wisdom is to start early in life (vv. 13a, 15d), but he also explains the ways in which wisdom may be found (a human being should subordinate all spheres of life to finding it – vv. 13b, 14b, 15b, 19a, 21a). The pericope lists the means necessary to find wisdom (namely, purification – v. 20b, following the path of righteousness – v. 15c, striving for goodness – v. 18a, turning to wisdom – v. 20a, complying with the Law – v. 19b, listening – v. 16a, and repentance for the mistakes made – v. 19d) as well as mentions the gifts wisdom grants those who find it (joy – v. 15b, formation – v. 16b, heart, that is intellectual capabilities – v. 20c, language thanks to which one can praise God and share wisdom with others – v. 22a; all of these gifts are called a good possession – v. 21b). The sage emphasizes the fact that finding wisdom is not particularly difficult and does not require a tremendous effort (v. 16a), but searching for wisdom should be a constant part of life for those who wish to have it (they should never stop searching for it – v. 14b). In part two (vv. 23-30), which is of a didactic character, the sage encourages the uneducated to join his school so that he can share wisdom with them. The author admonishes those who – like him – desire wisdom to take advantage of his experience and undergo formation in his school. Sirach presents two ways leading to wisdom. The first one requires personal involvement in searching for it, whilst the second one entails taking possession of wisdom from someone who has already found it. In Sir 51:13-30 the author expresses great optimism concerning the possibility of finding and possessing wisdom. His position is at odds with the pessimism of the Book of Job and the Book of Ecclesiastes in this respect. The pericope under analysis here serves as a summary of the opinions expressed by the sage earlier in his book (cf. especially 6:18-37; 14:20 – 15:10; 24, 33:18-19). Together with Sir 1:1-10 it the frames the whole book and constitutes the recapitulation of the most significant theological aspects of Sirach’s text as well as a synthesis of his theology.

Sir 38:24 – 39:11 presents the scribe as a model of a person striving to acquire wisdom. The present article focuses on the second part of the pericope (39:1-11), which refers directly to the figure of the scribe. The fragment can be divided into five sections. In the first one (39:1-3) the sage describes the scribe’s intellectual pursuits and the texts he peruses. The second section (39:4) concentrates in turn on the scribe’s social commitments, while the third one (39:5) – on his attitude towards God. The fourth part (39:6-8) depicts the gift that the scribe may receive from God and the consequences it will have for his life. The final section (39:9-11) is devoted to the scribe’s fame, which he may achieve due to the acquisition of wisdom. Sirach emphasizes in his text the necessity to thoroughly study the Law and other biblical traditions (cf. 39:1). He also recommends learning from other nations to acquire wisdom (cf. 39:2-3; travel may serve such a purpose – cf. 39:4cd). However, the acquisition of wisdom does not stem only from a person’s intellectual efforts, but is primarily a gift from God (cf. 39:6ab). The sage stresses the role that prayer plays in one’s acquisition of wisdom. In the final part of his reflections the sage pays particular attention to the results the acquisition of wisdom brings (39:6cd-11), primarily the scribe’s everlasting fame that will transcend Israel’s borders.

Opis:
The present article discusses Sirach’s original concept of wisdom as presented in the first pericope of his book. It is argued that Sir 1:1-10 functions as the opening pericope that introduces the subject matter to be developed later in the book. The structure of the original version of Sir 1:1-10 (G-I) is lucid: the pericope can be divided into two halves of exactly the same length (verses 1-4 and 6-10). The textual additions in G-II recension disrupted the symmetry of the pericope but did not alter its meaning. The first part of the pericope focuses on the origins of wisdom and its relation to the created world, while the second part shows wisdom to be inaccessible in any other way than as God’s gift for his creatures, especially the people who love him. Sir 1:1-4 emphasizes the distance between wisdom and people, which is gradually reduced in the second part of the pericope (vv. 6-10). Due to God’s intervention wisdom is transformed from a distant and inaccessible entity to one close to human beings. As an intermediary between God and people, it brings people closer to God, yet it is not an inherent part of their nature, but rather Yahweh’s gift to them.

In Sir 14:20 – 15:10 Sirach continues his teachings concerning the acquisition of wisdom (cf. 1:1-10; 4:16-19 and 6:18-37) (the exegetico-theological analysis conducted in this article is based on the Greek version of the fragment). In the pericope the author presents the sage as a model and an example to follow for all those who wish to acquire wisdom. The pericope under analysis here comprises two parts. The present article focuses on the first one (14:20-27), in which Sirach concentrates on the actions the sage undertakes to acquire wisdom. The second section (15:1-10) in turn makes use of three metaphors to present the actions of wisdom throughout the process of a man’s search for it. The first part of the pericope (14:20-27) can be further divided into three sections. In the first one (14:20-21) Sirach praises the man who seeks wisdom, emphasizing his intellectual engagement (in the form of contemplating or pondering) as the basis for reaching the aim and finding wisdom. The second part (14:22-25) presents the actions aimed at acquiring wisdom with the use of three metaphors: the first is that of hunting (14:22), and the second – that of spying (14:23), even though verses 21:23-24 include a prohibition and a harsh reprimand against peeping or eavesdropping. The third metaphor, the most developed of all three, refers to camping next to wisdom (14:24-25). In the final section of part one (14:26-27) Sirach presents the promises made to those who strive to acquire wisdom, namely protection from danger and living close to wisdom.

Opis:
Księgi biblijne przedstawiają wydarzenia z historii biblijnego Izraela interpretując je w kluczu teologicznym. Dotyczy to również opisu najazdu króla Asyrii Sennacheryba na Judę i Jerozolimę w 701 r. przed Chr. Konfrontacja ta znalazła nawet odzwierciedlanie w źródłach asyryjskich, które podkreślają potęgę Asyrii. Jednak przekaz biblijny uwidacznia niezwykłą interwencję Boga, który w tajemniczy sposób ocalił swój lud. Był to przekaz tak istotny, iż został przedstawiony w Starym Testamencie aż cztery razy: 2 Krl 19,35; 2 Krn 32,21; Iz 37,21 oraz Syr 48,21. Przekazy biblijne tłumaczą ocalenie Jerozolimy interwencją Boga, który działa poprzez swojego „posłańca” – anioła. Najpóźniejszy opis tego wydarzenia w Syr 48,21 wraz z kontekstem sugeruje własną interpretację tego wydarzenia. Anioł, przez którego Bóg działa w obronie swojego ludu może być zidentyfikowany w prorokiem Izajaszem, który ogłasza Boże orędzeie ocalenia, jako odpowiedź na modlitwę ludu.
Biblical books, while presenting events from the history of biblical Israel, interpret them in a theological manner. This principle also applies to the description of Sennacherib’s military campaign against Judah and Jerusalem in 701 BC. This campaign is even reported in the Assyrian sources, which underline Assyrian military power. The biblical narrative emphasizes an extraordinary intervention of God, who saves his people in a mysterious way. This divine intervention was so important that is was reported in the Old Testament writings four times (2 Kgs 19:35; 2 Chr 32:21; Is 37:21; Sirach 48:21). Biblical reports explains the rescue of Jerusalem by the intervention of God, who is acting by his “messenger” – an angel. In the latest description of this event, found in Ben Sira 47:21H, the sage from Jerusalem gives his own interpretation of the whole affair, which differs slightly from other reports. The angel, by whom God is acting, is identified with the prophet Isaiah, who announces the salvage of Jerusalem as an answer to people’s prayers.
