Aesop and Jotham's Parable of the Trees (Judges 9:8-15).

Recent scholarship has entertained the possibility that Jotham's Parable of the Trees (Judg 9:8-15) is derived from the Greek text of one of Aesop's Fables (Perry 262).

      ab: Recent scholarship has entertained the possibility that Jotham's Parable of the Trees (Judg 9:8-15) is derived from the Greek text of one of Aesop's Fables (Perry 262). This article refutes this notion, tracing the dependence of Aesop's fable on one Septuagint tradition, which itself is a translation of the Hebrew. The article goes on to propose a pre-exilic setting for the biblical fable, based not on its foregrounded opinion of monarchy, but on its background assumptions of deity.
