The proposed research in this renewal proposal aims to uncover and examine the connection between Karaite liturgical poetry and biblical exegesis in the Eastern Mediterranean during the thirteenth through fifteenth centuries. The main corpus consists of a poetical cycle of 54 poems on the parashot, i.e. the weekly Torah readings on each Sabbath, composed by Aaron ben Joseph ha-Rofe (ca. 1250-1320) and contained in the Karaite prayer book which he compiled while living in Constantinople at the end of the thirteenth century. The proposed research that develops out of the previous work on his liturgical poetry will focus on the impact of Rabbanism on the liturgical and poetic innovations of Aaron in relation to his exegetical oeuvre. After a comprehensive analysis of his literary qualities in comparison to the Rabbanite poems he included in the Karaite prayer book, started in the current funding period of the project, we will subsequently proceed to an essential new question about the biblical exegesis in his 54 poems on the parashot, i.e. the fact that Aaron ben Joseph in paraphrasing the biblical narrative in his poetical cycle could not - and perhaps did not wish to - avoid using words and phrases which were interpretive, reflecting how he understood the biblical text. This notable difference to the liturgical poems by the earliest Karaite poet to write a cycle of poems on the parashot, the twelfth-century Egyptian Karaite poet Moses ben Abraham Dari, as well as to most of the Andalusian Rabbanite poetry he inserted in the Karaite prayer book provides us with an innovative tool to reassess the poems by Aaron b. Joseph on the parashot in the light of the non-liturgical, exegetical materials they contain and refer to. In addition to relating his poems to his own Pentateuch commentary, entitled Sefer ha-Mivhar, the link to Rabbinic source texts, particularly the Torah commentary by Abraham ibn Ezra (ca. 1090-1165) entitled Sefer ha-Yashar, will also be scrutinized. In a last phase of the project, we propose to deal with the transmission and reception of the poems by Aaron ben Joseph on the parashot in later Karaite scholarship. In this part, we will focus on the only other complete cycle of 54 poems on the parashot printed in the Karaite prayer book and composed in early Ottoman times by Judah ben Elijah Gibbor (b. ca. 1460). By selecting those poetic passages in which Aaron ben Joseph clearly relates to exegetical texts and next comparing these to the parallel poems by Judah Gibbor, the research will attempt to discern an exegetical trend in Karaite liturgical poetry of the thirteenth through fifteenth centuries in cycles of poems that were on the one hand bound to the liturgy by means of the weekly cycle of Torah reading but on the other hand also to non-liturgical, exegetical texts.

在这个更新提案中提出的研究旨在揭示和检查13至15世纪东地中海地区卡拉特礼仪诗歌和圣经注释之间的联系。主要的语料由一个由54首诗组成的诗歌循环组成，即每个安息日的每周Torah阅读，由Aaron ben Joseph ha-Rofe（约1250-1320）组成，并包含在Karaite祈祷书中，他在十三世纪末居住在君士坦丁堡时编写。本研究是在先前对亚伦礼仪诗歌研究的基础上发展起来的，将重点研究拉班主义对亚伦的礼仪和诗歌创新的影响，并与他的训诂作品联系起来。在将他的文学品质与他收录在卡拉特祈祷书中的Rabbanite诗歌进行综合分析之后，我们将在项目的当前资助期开始，随后我们将继续讨论一个重要的新问题，即他在parashot上的54首诗中的圣经训诂，也就是说，亚伦·本·约瑟夫在他的诗歌循环中改写圣经叙事时，不能——也许也不希望——避免使用解释性的单词和短语，这反映了他对圣经文本的理解。这个礼拜仪式的显著影响诗歌最早的圣经派信徒诗人写诗的循环parashot,十二世纪埃及圣经派信徒诗人摩西本·亚伯拉罕达里语,以及大部分的安达卢西亚人Rabbanite诗歌他插在圣经派信徒祷告书为我们提供了一个创新的工具评估的诗亚伦b。约瑟夫在parashot non-liturgical的光,它们包含注释的材料和参考。除了将他的诗歌与他自己的《摩西五经》注释（Sefer ha-Mivhar）联系起来外，还将仔细审查与拉比源文本的联系，特别是亚伯拉罕·伊本·以斯拉（约1090-1165）的《摩西五经》注释（Sefer ha-Yashar）。在项目的最后一个阶段，我们建议在后来的卡拉特学术中处理亚伦·本·约瑟夫关于parashot的诗歌的传播和接受。在这一部分中，我们将重点关注在卡拉特祈祷书中印刷的唯一另一个完整的54首诗的parashot循环，由Judah ben Elijah Gibbor（公元前约1460年）在早期奥斯曼时代创作。通过选择那些亚伦·本·约瑟夫明显与训诂文本相关的诗歌段落，然后将它们与犹大·吉布尔的平行诗歌进行比较，研究将试图辨别出十三到十五世纪卡拉派礼仪诗歌中的训诂趋势，这些诗歌的循环一方面通过每周诵读Torah的循环与礼拜仪式联系在一起，但另一方面也与非礼仪的训诂文本联系在一起。
