Endnote 13 - Judith

Alan Dundes, cited in Luis Alonso-Schökel, “Narrative Structure in the Book of Judith,” Protocol Series of the Colloquies of the Center for Hermeneutical Studies in Hellenistic and Modern Culture XII/17 (March 1974), pp. 28–29. This is a remarkably insightful work, with contributions from a number of scholars, from a multi-disciplinary perspective.

Endnote 11 - Judith

T. Craven, Artistry and Faith in the Book of Judith, Society of Biblical Literature Dissertation Series 70 (1983), pp. 117–118. This is perhaps the best study, in any language, of the literary aspects of the Book of Judith.

Endnote 10 - Judith

For further details, see Harry M. Orlinsky, Essays in Biblical Culture and Bible Translation (New York: Ktav, 1974), pp. 279–81. But see Shaye J. D. Cohen, From the Maccabees to the Mishnah, pp. 50–55, who points out that no Jewish text from the period prior to the destruction of the Temple knows of baptism/immersion as a required ritual of conversion.
