A translated text is laced with interpretive assumptions. By focusing on the Septuagint, J. Ross Wagner highlights the creative theology hidden in translation. His model couples patient investigation of the act of translation with careful attention to the translated texts' rhetorical features. Wagner focuses upon Isaiah's opening vision, clarifying its language, elucidating its character, and contextualizing its message. Reading the Sealed Book demonstrates how such translations serve as distinctive contributions to theology and reveal the contours of Jewish identity in the Hellenistic diaspora.

Captured in just one book is a complete overview of God's plan and purpose for the church, Israel, and other nations in the end times. "But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end" (Daniel 12:4). "Although I heard, I did not understand. Then I said, 'My Lord, what shall be the end of these things?' And he said, 'Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end'" (Daniel 12:8-9). God raised up another prophet, the apostle John, to open the book that the prophet Daniel had closed and sealed. "And he said to me [John], 'Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand'" (Rev. 22:10). The "time of the end" has come! It is time to open the book that Daniel was ordered to seal. God chose the church for a great mission: to spread the gospel and to bring understanding of His purpose and will to all people. The church needs a full understanding of all future events, in order to teach and proclaim them in a clear way. This book includes historical issues, detailed exposition of one of the last prophecies to be fulfilled before the judgment of God commences--Russia's attack on Israel.

Of all the texts in the Hebrew and Christian scriptures, perhaps no book has a more colorful history of interpretation than Isaiah. A comprehensive history of this interpretation between the prophet Malachi and the first days of Christianity, Joseph Blenkinsopp's Opening the Sealed Book traces three different prophetic traditions in Isaiah -- the "man of God," the critic of social structures, and the apocalyptic seer. Blenkinsopp explores the place of Isaiah in Jewish sectarianism, at Qumran, and among early Christians, touching on a number of its themes, including exile, "the remnant of Israel," martyrdom, and "the servant of the Lord." Encompassing several disciplines -- hermeneutics, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Second Temple studies, Christian origins -- Opening the Sealed Book will appeal to Jewish and Christian scholars as well as readers fascinated by the intricate and influential prophetic visions of Isaiah.

Summary: Tests were made in a seal test chamber to determine the hinge moments contributed by the fabric seal in an internal-balance arrangement employing a thin-plate over-hang. These tests were performed with various widths of fabric sealing various widths of flap-nose gap, with a horizontal, a vertical, and a circular type of wing structure forward of the balance, and with various heights of balance chamber. This investigation is an experimental verification and extension of a previous analytical investigation. The present investigation indicated that the moment of the seal may be a balancing or an unbalancing moment and may be an appreciable part of the total balancing moment of an internally balanced flap, depending on the overhang deflection and the configuration of the internal balance. Variation of the width of the fabric seal, the sealed gap, or the location of the seal attachment to the wing structure affected the seal moments through most of the over-hang deflection range. The shape and size of the balance chamber affected the seal-moment characteristics in the deflection range where the seals contacted and were constrained by the chamber walls; the values of the seal moments were usually reduced when the seals were constrained. The results indicated also that an optimum balance configuration would employ a seal width such that the seal would barely touch the chamber ceiling when maximum overhang deflection is attained.
