Neuware -Matthew Percuoco offers an analysis of the final four chapters of the book of Samuel. Drawing upon the research on the use of various literary devices in biblical scholarship, he proposes that the six sections that comprise 2 Samuel 21-24 serve as a miniature replica of the book of Samuel, which reflects the content and major themes of the book. The author contends that this reflection offers, at the same time, both a theological distillation of the work as a whole and an interpretative lens through which to understand the preceding narrative. This is established through strategic use of inner-biblical allusion and analogical correspondence, whereby the various episodes of the conclusion have been designed to resemble specific sections of the book, while their sequence mirrors the story's progression. The author makes the case that the addition of 2 Samuel 21-24 occurred at a single point in time at a final stage of the composition of the book (during the post-exilic period). He argues that the author/editor used available literary and historical sources to fashion his six-part conclusion, but that the narratives on the outer boundaries were likely composed, or (at least) heavily reworked, by the author himself. Matthew Percuoco offers a discussion of the relationships between the components of 2 Samuel 21-24 and their parallel texts (e.g., Ps 18; 1 Chr 11:11-41; 20:4-8; 21:1-30) and examines instances of literary influence and allusions between 2 Samuel 21-24 and other passages in the books of Genesis-2 Kings. Finally, he suggests that 2 Samuel 21-24 functioned as an important unit within an emerging Enneateuchal corpus.; Matthew Percuoco analysiert die letzten vier Kapitel des Buches Samuel. Unter Rückgriff auf Forschungen zum Einsatz verschiedener literarischer Verfahren in der Bibelwissenschaft schlägt er vor, dass die sechs Abschnitte, aus denen 2 Samuel 21-24 besteht, als eine Nachbildung des Buches Samuel in Miniatur darstellen, die den Inhalt und die Hauptthemen des Buches widerspiegelt. Der Autor vertritt die Auffassung, dass diese Spiegelung zugleich eine theologische Destillation des Gesamtwerks und eine interpretative Brille darstellt, durch die der vorausgehende Erzählstoff zu verstehen ist. Dies wird durch den gezielten Einsatz innerbiblischer Anspielungen und analoger Entsprechungen erreicht, durch die die verschiedenen Episoden des Schlusses so gestaltet wurden, dass sie bestimmten Abschnitten des Buches ähneln, während ihre Abfolge den Gang der Erzählung nachzeichnet. Der Autor legt dar, dass die Hinzufügung von 2 Samuel 21-24 zu einem einzigen Zeitpunkt in einer abschließenden Phase der Abfassung des Buches (während der nachexilischen Zeit) erfolgte. Er argumentiert, dass der biblische Autor/Redakteur verfügbare literarische und historische Quellen nutzte, um seinen sechsteiligen Schluss zu gestalten, die Erzählungen an den äußeren Rändern jedoch vermutlich vom Autor selbst verfasst oder (mindestens) stark überarbeitet wurden. Matthew Percuoco untersucht die Beziehungen zwischen den Bestandteilen von 2 Samuel 21-24 und ihren Paralleltexten (z. B. Ps 18; 1 Chr 11,11-41; 20,4-8; 21,1-30) sowie Fälle literarischer Einflüsse und Anspielungen zwischen 2 Samuel 21-24 und anderen Passagen in den Büchern Genesis-2 Könige. Schließlich schlägt er vor, dass 2 Samuel 21-24 als eine wichtige Einheit innerhalb eines sich herausbildenden Enneateuch fungierte. 433 pp. Englisch. …
