La representation du divin dans les récits du Pentateuque
Book Description
This scholarly exploration delves into how the divine presence manifests throughout the foundational stories of the Pentateuch, offering readers a unique lens through which to understand sacred narrative. Rather than simply cataloging biblical representations of God, this work examines the deeper implications of how divinity is portrayed through careful analysis of language, structure, and storytelling techniques.
The author investigates the multifaceted ways the divine character appears in these ancient texts, from direct speeches and their various modes of delivery to divine actions and the different perspectives from which they unfold. The study pays particular attention to how divine perceptions and emotions are conveyed, challenging traditional notions of omniscient narration while exploring how divine words are sometimes interpreted or transformed by human understanding.
What emerges is a fascinating portrait of divinity presented primarily through human experience and interpretation. The Pentateuch, this research reveals, offers an essentially mimetic approach to the divine, allowing readers to encounter God through the eyes and experiences of various characters rather than through abstract theological concepts.
For those seeking to deepen their understanding of how sacred texts communicate spiritual truths, this work provides valuable insights into the relationship between narrative technique and divine revelation. It illuminates how ancient storytellers crafted their accounts to reflect the complex, multifaceted nature of human encounters with the sacred.
