346 Dev<strong>in</strong> J. Stewartconsulted <strong>in</strong> cases of press<strong>in</strong>g need, and kept <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Temple of Jupiter on <strong>the</strong>Capitol<strong>in</strong>e Hill under <strong>the</strong> control of a committee of two and later ten and <strong>the</strong>nfifteen men - <strong>the</strong> only ones allowed to see <strong>the</strong>m. Legend had it that one of <strong>the</strong> ··early overseers committed <strong>the</strong> error of copy<strong>in</strong>g parts of <strong>the</strong> books, and was <strong>the</strong>reforesubject to <strong>the</strong> ultimate punishment, be<strong>in</strong>g sown <strong>in</strong>to a lea<strong>the</strong>r sack and thrown<strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> sea. 5 8 In Sibyll<strong>in</strong>e and o<strong>the</strong>r Greek oracular traditions, <strong>in</strong>dividual poeticannouncements were scratched verse by verse on oak, palm, or o<strong>the</strong>r leaves.Legends report that w<strong>in</strong>d scattered <strong>the</strong> leaves so that <strong>the</strong> petitioners would <strong>the</strong>nbe at a loss as to <strong>the</strong> correct order of <strong>the</strong> verses and consequently <strong>the</strong> content of<strong>the</strong> message. 59Later, <strong>in</strong>dividual oracles were ga<strong>the</strong>red <strong>in</strong>to collections from whichoracles were meted out by travel<strong>in</strong>g chresmologues or oracle-mongers, oftenkno_wn as Bakis if male and Sibyl if female- orig<strong>in</strong>ally <strong>the</strong> given names of specific~ncien~ seers that later came to serve as generic labels. Many Greek city-states,mcludmg A<strong>the</strong>ns and Sparta, came to keep books of oracles <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir archives andtt:e Spartan k<strong>in</strong>gs also kept a collection of Delphic oracles. 60 In all cases: <strong>the</strong>difficult access to <strong>the</strong>se oracular texts served to enhance <strong>the</strong>ir authority.Perhaps most suggestive as a case for comparison with <strong>the</strong> Qur'an as an <strong>in</strong>tangiblescripture accessed through oracular revelation is provided by <strong>the</strong> Ifa div<strong>in</strong>ationsystem of <strong>the</strong> Yoruba people of Nigeria. In this complex system of div<strong>in</strong>ation under<strong>the</strong> ausp~c~s o_fifa, tt:e g~d of wisdom, an Ifa priest manipulates 16 palm nuts, orcasts a d!V!natwn cham With four half-nuts of <strong>the</strong> opele tree attached to each side <strong>in</strong>order to <strong>in</strong>dicate one of256 possible numerical comb<strong>in</strong>ations ( 16 x 16). The comb<strong>in</strong>atio~m;1ved at <strong>in</strong>dicates to <strong>the</strong> priest which of256 books, termed Odus, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g16 ~nncipal Odus and 240 secondary Odus, to consult. The priests do not haveco~Ies of any o~ ~ese Odus, but know <strong>the</strong>m by memory, and <strong>the</strong>re is <strong>in</strong> fact strongresistance to wntmg <strong>the</strong>m down at all. The Odus are divided <strong>in</strong>to chapters or poeticsegments termed Eses, which range from four to 600 l<strong>in</strong>es <strong>in</strong> length. The number off!s~s ~n each _Odu is not fixed and depends on <strong>the</strong> knowledge and experience of <strong>the</strong>m?!V!dual pnest. The priest recites to <strong>the</strong> petitioner <strong>the</strong> Ese he sees as most appropnatefrom <strong>the</strong> Odu <strong>in</strong>dicated as <strong>the</strong> basis of his div<strong>in</strong>ation. 61 These "books" are <strong>in</strong>a sense parallel to <strong>the</strong> Qur'an before it was collected between two covers and <strong>the</strong>Eses are parallel to <strong>in</strong>dividual Silras. While <strong>the</strong> priest refers to <strong>the</strong> books as ;uch andrecites parts of <strong>the</strong>m <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> course of <strong>the</strong> div<strong>in</strong>ation session, <strong>the</strong> books are ~everproduced as tangible objects, and <strong>the</strong>ir texts are generally not written down.T~e idea of a sacred text that is <strong>in</strong>accessible as a publicly circulated codexcontmued to be upheld <strong>in</strong> various genres oflslamic literature long after <strong>the</strong> missionof <strong>the</strong> Prophet Mul;larnmad. In <strong>the</strong> Shi' ite tradition a number of sacred -texts heldto be <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> possession of <strong>the</strong> Imams supposedly conta<strong>in</strong> esoteric, oracular58 Parke;Siby/s and Sibyll<strong>in</strong>e Prophecy, 76-78, 190-215.59 Ibid., 82-83.60 Fontenrose, The Delphic Oracle, 158-65.61 W.R. ~ascom, /fa J?iv<strong>in</strong>at~on: Communication between Gods and Men <strong>in</strong> West Africa,Bloommgton, IN: Indiana Umversity Press, 1969; W.

It is not clear how many dist<strong>in</strong>ct book; areenvisaged <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> tradition, as <strong>the</strong> titles are confused and several may refer to oneand <strong>the</strong> same work. Perhaps <strong>the</strong> best known of <strong>the</strong>se is <strong>the</strong> Jafr of 'Ali, whichsupposedly had two volumes, one white and one red, and, like <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r similarbooks, is held to have contairied div<strong>in</strong>e wisdom, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g knowledge of pastprophets, religious law, and future trials and events. 62ConclusionThis <strong>in</strong>vestigation calls attention to a number of <strong>the</strong> textual features of <strong>the</strong> Qur'an,some noted <strong>in</strong> literature to date and o<strong>the</strong>rs not, that potentially resemble <strong>the</strong>conventions of literary forms belong<strong>in</strong>g to pre-Islamic pagan Arabian religioustradition. Identify<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>se forms and explairi<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>ir conventions may helpprovide a more profound understand<strong>in</strong>g of many Qur'anic passages that arepuzzl<strong>in</strong>g when approached from <strong>the</strong> po<strong>in</strong>t of view of Jewish and Christian tradition.Form-critical methods are particularly useful for address<strong>in</strong>g this material,s<strong>in</strong>ce it is <strong>in</strong> many cases pre.cisely <strong>the</strong>se texts' formal conventions that seem at <strong>the</strong>outset so odd, unfamiliar, and resistant to iriterpretation. While some scholars<strong>in</strong>vestigat<strong>in</strong>g this material have claimed to f<strong>in</strong>d <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Ur-poetry of <strong>the</strong> Semites <strong>the</strong>common source from which many disparate traditions arose, 63 <strong>the</strong> po<strong>in</strong>t here is notthat <strong>the</strong>re was a genetic l<strong>in</strong>k between pre-Islamic and earlier forms, whe<strong>the</strong>r Greekor ancient Near Eastern, although many common features of texts may <strong>in</strong>deedhave been assimilated from o<strong>the</strong>r sources through cultural borrow<strong>in</strong>g. 64 Ra<strong>the</strong>r,exam<strong>in</strong>irig parallel oracular traditions may throw light on conventional aspects oforacular passages <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Qur' an and explairi features of <strong>the</strong> text that have puzz~edscholars to date. Just as <strong>the</strong> pre-Islamic pilgrimage and <strong>the</strong> myths ofHild and 'Ad,~alii}. and Thamild, and Shu' ayb and Midian have been <strong>in</strong>tegrated <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> Qur' anby re<strong>in</strong>terpretation with<strong>in</strong> a mono<strong>the</strong>ist, Biblical framework, so too has <strong>the</strong> preIslamic oracular material been <strong>in</strong>tegrated <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> Qur'an by pass<strong>in</strong>g through amono<strong>the</strong>istic, Biblical filter. The pre-Islamic div<strong>in</strong>e with a familiar daemon isrecast as a prophet to whom <strong>the</strong> angel Gabriel relays div<strong>in</strong>e revelations. Omensthat <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> pagan tradition would have referred to trade, travel, warfare, alliances,62 Mohammad Ali Amir-Moezzi, The Div<strong>in</strong>e Guide <strong>in</strong> Early Shi 'ism: The Sources ofEsotericism <strong>in</strong> Islam, trans. D. Streight, Albany: State University ofNew York Press, 1994, 73-75.63 D. H. Muller, Die Propheten <strong>in</strong> ihrer urspn<strong>in</strong>glichen Form.64 Parke makes <strong>the</strong> follow<strong>in</strong>g comment regard<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> possibility of connect<strong>in</strong>g Sibyll<strong>in</strong>e oracles with<strong>the</strong> Ancient Near East: "The conclusion to be drawn is that though ecstatic prophecy <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> NearEast exhib<strong>its</strong> some <strong>in</strong>terest<strong>in</strong>g features which can be compared with <strong>the</strong> Sibyll<strong>in</strong>e oracles, <strong>the</strong>re isno overall likeness at any period or place which would impel a belief <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Sibyl's derivation from<strong>the</strong> Orient." Parke, Sibyls, 219-20. One might make a similar statement regard<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> Qur'anicmaterial's relationship to both Greek and Ancient Near Eastern material.

While <strong>the</strong> soothsayer's pronouncements derived from <strong>the</strong>directly by <strong>in</strong>spiration, or through <strong>the</strong> mediation of a familiar spirit, <strong>the</strong> n~''"ho+'•revelations derived from a celestial book, a scripture that was <strong>in</strong>tangible and ·.existed on a higher plane. A broad, comparative perspective suggests that <strong>the</strong>Qur' an, and <strong>the</strong> Prophet Mul;~ammad' s mission <strong>its</strong>elf, may be profitably viewed as •.represent<strong>in</strong>g a particular stage <strong>in</strong> religious development, that of transition between·an oracular and a prophetic moment.Does <strong>the</strong> Qur'an deny or assertJesus's {!rucifixion and death? 1Suleiman A. Mourad·.·The issue of Jesus's crucifixion and death <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Qur'an has been extensively exam.· <strong>in</strong>ed <strong>in</strong> modem scholarship, primarily by scholars concerned with religious dialogueor polemics. 2 One reason for this <strong>in</strong>terest is <strong>the</strong> perception that <strong>the</strong> Qur' an refutes <strong>the</strong>crucifixion and death of Jesus; this perception, which is often tied to a pair of verses· .• (Q 4:157-58), places Islam's scripture <strong>in</strong> direct opposition to <strong>the</strong> foundationaldoctr<strong>in</strong>e of <strong>the</strong> Christian faith. Yet although Muslim scholars have overwhelm<strong>in</strong>gly. • rejected <strong>the</strong> crucifixion of Jesus, <strong>the</strong>y are divided regard<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> reality of his death .. ··.·The possibility that Jesus actually died and was resurrected from death was argued· by a number oflead<strong>in</strong>g early Muslim exegetes, and became an essential view with<strong>in</strong>. <strong>the</strong> tradition. 3 This shows that, on <strong>the</strong> one hand, <strong>the</strong> way <strong>the</strong> Qur'an addresses <strong>the</strong>:;~crucifixion/death narrative allows for conflict<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>terpretations, and, on <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rhand, that what is perceived as <strong>the</strong> standard position <strong>in</strong> Islam is favored <strong>in</strong> somemodem Muslim and non-Muslim circles because it is rooted <strong>in</strong> Christian-Muslimpoiemics; this position is often used <strong>in</strong> an attempt to legitimize one's own religionprove <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r religion wrong. 4 In this chapter, I offer some reflections on <strong>the</strong>.. I This paper was presented at The Qur 'l<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong> Its Historical Context conference, held at <strong>the</strong> UniversityofNotre Dame (April 19-21, 2009). I want to thank my friend GabrielS. Reynolds for his generous<strong>in</strong>vitation for me to take part <strong>in</strong> this conference. An earlier draft was presented at a symposium heldat Middlebury College (January 17-19, 2008), entitled Engag<strong>in</strong>g Passions: The Death of Jesusand Its Legacies; I want to thank my former colleague and friend Oliver Larry Yarbrough for hisgenerous <strong>in</strong>vitation for me to take part <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> symposium.2 Gabriel S.
