是否有人创建过,或者目前是否有人正在创建一个自定义的 Biblical Terms Tool 列表,其中包含圣经中的每个名字,并且每个名字都与旧约和新约中包含该名字的所有引用相关联?
跟踪在 Major Biblical Terms 中标记为“Name”的项目对于检查内部(旧约和新约各自内部)的一致性非常有用,但对于跨两者则不然——那必须逐案处理。当然,可以通过过滤名称并显示两个约的术语,然后按英文列排序来操作列表以进行轻松比较。这使得相对容易地找到跨约使用的“相同”名字:

但我认为更好的解决方案是一个预先进行组合的单独列表。一些挑战:
- 保持指代不同人物的名字分开(正如目前在 Major Biblical Terms 列表中做的那样)
- 仅匹配指代同一人物的跨约名字(与 #1 相关)
- 那些似乎指代同一人物但在希腊语或希伯来语中有两种或更多不同拼写的名字的问题(是分开还是合并?- 我怀疑合并更好,如果翻译者致力于反映差异,他们可以从希伯来语或希腊语列表中手动选择相关项目,并在统一名称列表中取消该名字的星标)
毫无疑问,还有我没想到的其他问题。但尽管有这些挑战,我认为这样一个列表会很有帮助。
Has anyone created, or is anyone currently creating, a custom Biblical Terms Tool list that has every name in the Bible, with each name associated with all references containing that name in both Old and New Testaments?
Tracking items marked as “Name” in Major Biblical Terms is great for checking consistency within the OT and NT, but not across both – that has to be done on a case by case basis. One can, of course, manipulate the lists for easy comparison, by filtering for Names and showing terms from both testaments, then sorting by the English column. That makes it relatively straightforward to find the “same” name used across testaments:

But I think a better solution would be a separate list that does the combinations ahead of time. A few challenges:
- Keeping names separate that refer to different people (as is currently done in the Major Biblical Terms list)
- Matching only those names across testaments that refer to the same person (related to #1)
- Problems of names that seem to refer to the same person but are spelled two+ different ways in Greek or in Hebrew (better to split or to glom? - I suspect it’s better to glom, and if translators are committed to reflecting differences, they can hand-pick the relevant items from a Hebrew or Greek list and unstar the name in the Unified Names list)
And no doubt there are other problems I’m not thinking of. But in spite of the challenges, I think such a list would be helpful.
