- W2337164019 abstract "tThis chapter discusses the idioms for cleansing or purging function in Second Temple Hebrew. It articulates the author's basic thesis about the evolution of the biblical metaphor for sin. A debt is an obligation that one owes to another. The idiom of sin as a debt allows for a striking new idea to emerge in Israelite religion: the ability to reduce or even eliminate one's culpability by accumulating merits. This is illustrated quite well in rabbinic literature. But one need not wait until Talmudic times to see this concept at work. One can witness the notion of the accumulation of credits already in Dan 4:24. In this text, Daniel gives King Nebuchadnezzar this piece of advice: Redeem your sins by almsgiving and your iniquities by generosity to the poor. Keywords: almsgiving; debt; Israelite religion; King Nebuchadnezzar; Second Temple Hebrew; sin" @default.
