"She is My Sister": Sarai as Lady Wisdom in the Genesis Apocryphon

| 520 | |a The Aramaic text from Qumran known to scholars as the Genesis Apocryphon (1Q20) stands out as one the earliest and most innovative examples of the retelling of Abram and Sarai's sojourn in Egypt (Gen 12:10-20). To be sure, the terse nature of the Genesis account invited creative storytellers to fill in the gaps, but brevity yielded only half the impetus. Ancient storytellers were no less bothered by the inglorious portrayal of Abram and Sarai, for which there is no shortage of attempts to rescue their reputations. The Apocryphon shares several of the same recharacterization strategies as other ancient retellings, but it is nevertheless unique in its engagement with the tradition of personified wisdom. This article imagines the composer of the Apocryphon's sojourn account in dialogue with ancient Jewish wisdom traditions and discerns an effort to redeem Sarai's reputation from Genesis 12 by recasting her as an embodiment of Lady Wisdom. | ||
