Abstract:

In de vroeg-Joodse, vroeg-christelijke en rabbijnse literatuur is Abraham een van de grote identificatiefiguren. Op de vraag hoe Abraham God leert kennen, zijn er grofweg twee antwoorden: 1. Abraham ontdekt de ware God met eigen denkkracht al dan niet met behulp van de astronomia. Op enig moment in dat proces komt God hem tegemoet en bevestigt zijn keuze (vroeg-Joodse en rabbijnse geschriften). 2. God roept Abraham en hij antwoordt in geloof en gehoorzaamheid (vroeg-christelijke literatuur, inclusief Nieuwe Testament, in overeenstemming met de brontekst van Genesis 11 en 12).

Abstract:

The Jewish Interpretation of the Trial of Abraham and Its Appearance in the New Testament. In view of the diverse depiction of the events on Mount Moriah in early Jewish literature, it is quite surprising that the story of Isaac’s sacrifice is only clearly recognizable in two texts in the entire New Testament: the Book of Hebrews and the Epistle of James. We will touch upon these two texts at the end of our brief study. The aim of our investigation is to show how the two authors weave the threads from the Hellenistic-Jewish tradition into their own material and further interpret the story of A

Der Grund ist freilich nicht eine generelle ‘Humanisierung’ religiöser Vorstellungen: Bei Lukas ist die heftige Reaktion Jesu auf den Vorschlag der Zebedaiden, ein samaritanisches Dorf durch Feuer vom Himmel zu zerstören (Lk 9.54–55), gerade dadurch zu erklären, daß dieser Vorschlag aufgrund seiner biblischen Hinter

This article discusses the relationship between the divine promises in the Abraham narrative and the use made by this Old Testament material in the New Testament. It is argued that the New Testament's reinterpretation of the Abrahamic Covenant (e.g. relating the promise of blessing to the Gospel of Jesus Christ and applying the promise of multitudinous descendants to the Christian Church) is fully congruous with an exegetical interpretation of the core promissory aspects and their development within the Old Testament.

Abstract:

The ancient text known as the Testament of Abraham is preserved in Coptic in the same codex as two other works, the Testament of Isaac and the Testament of Jacob. These testaments were probably written in the late first or early second centuries CE by Jewish writers, although the manuscript of the Coptic codex containing them is dated to 962. These books were considered part of the “testament” literary genre, which featured a biblical hero imparting his last words of religious wisdom to his family gathered at his bedside.

So that there is a development of God's statement in a specific and representative manner with the presence of Abraham's descendants.

The difference of opinion is marked by the view that the typology of Jesus' sacrifice is Ihsak, but there are also those who agree that the typology of Jesus' sacrifice is the sheep.

The account in Genesis 22 of Abraham's binding and near sacrifice of his son Isaac is one of the best known passages in all of the Old Testament and presents the reader with a perfect example of the difficulty of achieving the “correct” interpretation of a given text. This essay attempts to offer a fresh interpretation of Genesis 22 that closely attends to the text, moves beyond purely descriptive objectives, wrestles with the questions that the text itself raises, and is motivated by theological concerns. This process begins by placing this text within the Abrahamic narrative of Genesis. In t

It shows how Bowes resists the customary interpretation of Genesis 22, characterizing Abraham as a fearful and indecisive old man, and Isaac as a bold warrior. It suggests, by a comparison of certain verbal and situational features, that Bowes used Théodore de Bèze’s play, Abraham sacrifiant (1550), as her model. It contends that since Bèze borrowed ideas and imagery from the Abraham story in the Mistère du Viel Testament ( c.1450),

Contrary to the depiction by Chinese Jews of the era, de Poirot portrayed Abraham as a sage, resonating with the traditional Chinese concept of the “five cardinal relationships” (rulers to subjects, fathers to sons, husbands to wives, among siblings, and between friends), and an exemplar of virtue and faith, devoid of human flaws.

This article is an exegetical effort to understand the Aqedah as an indispensable narrative by and for a traumatized person (or people) who feels that his (or its) life is no more than “a test case” in the hands of God. Hereby, new aspects are added to the understanding of the narrative

Abstract:

The New Testament is basically a collection of Jewish texts written during a period when the Jesus movement was still part of the diverse Judaism of the first century. Therefore we should expect to find examples of rabbinic biblical interpretation in the New Testament. This article suggests that the apostle Paul used midrash to create an interpretation of Gen 15:6 that allowed Gentiles to be included into the covenant without prior conversion to Judaism (Romans 4:1-12). It is argued that James, the brother of Jesus, in his interpretation of the same verse (James 2:14-24) also used midrash in o

The article uses typological understanding of the Lord's Supper to analyze Old Testament text. Intertextual hermeneutics, which connects the lexical units of various parts of texts for comprehensive understanding allowed to see an echo of the Eucharist in Old Testament. One of the most expressive prototypes or typos of the Lord's Supper in the Old Testament is the idea of the Covenants and changing of the covenants. The author analyzes the concept of testament and all cases of using this term in Old Testament texts, and concludes that the word “berith” in the biblical text cannot be iden

Sehingga, yang dipikirkan hanyalah iman yang diwarisi sudah cukup menyelamatkan akhir kehidupan. Namun lebih dari itu, orang percaya yang beriman bukan sekedar iman warisan, tetapi orang percaya harus mengorientasikan iman sebagai orang percaya kepada Allah yang dipercayai seperti Abraham yang menjadi model iman orang percaya.

This article presents the sacrificial nature of a priest’s life by elucidating the concept of sacrifice through the offerings of the Old Testament. The division of imperfect offerings by Old Testament priests is portrayed as a foreshadowing of Christ’s ultimate sacrifice on the cross, as well as the offerings of the New Testa-ment and the connection of every priest to Jesus’s sacrifice. The sacrificial char-acter of a priest’s life is underscored. Firstly, the concept of sacrifice is defined, followed by an exploration of the Old Testament offerings, which provides an image of the Old Testamen

In the Old Testament, circumcision was seen as a major part of establishing oneself as part of God's people. In the adoption of Israel as God's people at Sinai, every Israelite must be circumcised. It is based on God's command to Abraham, as a sign of the covenant. But actually the culture of circumcision is not a typical Israeli culture, but is a culture that is common in the Middle East, the only thing that distinguishes the culture of Israeli circumcision from the Middle East is in God's decree in the covenant that raised Israel (a descendant of Abraham) as God's people.

Abstract The Abraham tradition in the Old Testament is considered a source of Pauline universalism. The outstanding contribution made by early Jewish interpretations of Abraham, however, has been largely overlooked to date. Hymnal and liturgical texts of early Judaism provide further background about this character. Therefore, three central aspects of the apostle’s theocentric universalism will be discussed: ecclesiological (Rom 4:2–17a), christological-soteriological (8:32), and eschatological (15:7–12). The role that Gen 22 played in Jewish interpretation not only for Rom 8:32, but also for

Most readers of the Old Testament know the matriarchs Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, and Leah along with their counterpart patriarchs (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob). But fewer know the other matriarch, Hagar, the Egyptian, wife of Abraham and mother of Ishmael. If they know her, they often have negative misconceptions about Hagar and Ishmael. But when one reads the stories of Hagar in Genesis 16 and 21 carefully and without modern prejudices, one discovers that Genesis portrays neither Hagar nor Ishmael negatively. In fact, Hagar is exceptional among the matriarchs in that she is actually a Mother Patri

Wchodziły one w sferę oceny teologicznej, gdy wpływały na wiarę Izraela w jego Boga Jahwe.
