Pismo w kamieniu. Słowa Biblii w żydowskich inskrypcjach nagrobnych

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to point the Jewish gravestone’s inscriptions as a source of interdisciplinary research. They contain for example the rich Biblical onomastics and phraseology and also a lot of citations from Bible ‒ especially in eulogies and lamentations. The matzevot and inscriptions can be a starting point to the comparative studies on the level of language, theology, culture: including sepulchral tradition of Jews and Christians.
