Zwei oder drei im Bett?: Hieronymus' Auslegung von Jesaja 28,20 im Spiegel jüdischer Überlieferungen

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: “The bed is so narrow that one of the two must fall out, and the short covering cannot cover both” (Isa 28:20, Vg). The Hebrew text supposes only one person in bed, but Jerome’s translation assumes that a couple sleeps in a bed that is too narrow for them. The notion of the couple echoes Jewish midrash – a midrash that even knows of three people in the one bed.
