Wisdom and salvation history in the wisdom Psalms / by Hyung Guen SimSim, Hyung Guen January 2008 (has links)
This dissertation is an exploration of the relationship of wisdom to salvation history in the book of Psalms. The notional starting point of this thesis is a conviction that there might be a juncture at which the two themes converge because in certain psalms such as Psalm 78, the Israelite concept of salvation appears to have a close relationship with the wisdom theme. In the history of Psalm interpretation so far, the concept of wisdom psalm has not been properly dealt with due to scholastic difficulty in ascertaining the clear criteria of a genre. The process of scrutinizing the history of interpretation showed that the Psalms in their final form were far more purposeful than were previously understood. The major guiding principles of the method employed are: (1) 'the canonical approach' of Brevard Childs; (2) 'the canonical criticism' of James Sanders; (3) 'the canonical process approach' of Bruce Waltke; (4) 'the Christo-canonical approach' of Jerry E. Shepherd; and (5) 'the communito-canonical approach' of deClaissé-Walford. This thesis made use of these methodological principles by attempting to read the Psalter from the beginning to the end, and by focusing mainly on the final stage of the Psalter proposed by B. Waltke as the third stage, or the final and complete Old Testament canon associated with the Second Temple, and by purposefully limiting the scope of our study to around the post-exilic period.
Having dealt with the issue of classifying the wisdom psalm, the presence of the wisdom motif in many psalms which do not fall into the wisdom category serves to add a didactic dimension to the entire Psalter. In so doing, we reach a conclusion that what we are dealing with is not merely the wisdom psalms within the Psalms, but 'the wisdom Psalter' as a literary unit. Then, it can be said that the Psalter is not merely an anthology of individual psalms used for cult, but was meant to be read also as a source of min , an instruction. This means that every psalm in the Psalter has pedagogical potential, which may have been the ostensible intent of the editor(s) at the final stage of the formation of the Psalter.
On this premise, this study attempts to set up a strategy to read the Psalms from the beginning to the end from book I up to book V as a wisdom Psalter, with a particular focus on how the wisdom motif relates to the salvation history motif. The question did not merely concern their interpretation as disjointed pieces, but also what their presence in the book of Psalter meant in terms of the relationship between wisdom and salvation history. This means that the study is influenced less by a historical and form critical approach, but more from a literary and canonical perspective. / Thesis (Ph.D. (Old Testament))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2008.

Der Gott Jonas und die Völker: Narratologische und intertextuelle Studien zur Hinwendung von Nichtisraeliten zum wahren Gott in Jona 1,4-16 undRiebesehl, Klaus 01 1900 (has links)
The goal of this study is to evaluate, in which manner the Non-Israelites turn to Yahweh.
It works with a combination of narrative analysis and intertextuality.
The book of Jonah contains two symmetrical parts (1-2 and 3-4), each part containing
three scenes, each scene relating to a scene in the other part: 1.1-3 // 3.1-3a; 1.4-16 //
3.3b-10; 2.1-11 // 4.1-11.
The structure of 1.4-16, including the inner development of the mariners, shows that a
conversion of the Seamen to Yahweh is intended. In the same manner the structure of
3.3b-10 and the positive characterization of the Ninevites show that a conversion to the
one true God is intended. These results are each confirmed by an intertextual analysis of
1.14 and 16 and of the faith, the repentance and the God who relents.
Result: The book of Jonah teaches that Non-Israelites can have a relationship with
Yahweh. This is possible through an Israelite, becoming reality by conversion of the
Heathen. / Old Testament & Ancient Near Eastern Studies / M. Th. (Old Testament)

und Niniviten) dem wahren Gott zuwenden. Sie geht methodisch mit einer Kombination
aus Erzähltextanalyse und Intertextualität vor.
Das Jonabuch besteht aus zwei symmetrischen Hälften (Jon 1-2 und 3-4) mit je 3 Szenen,
die einander gegenüberstehen: 1,1-3 // 3,1-3a; 1,4-16 // 3,3b-10; 2,1-11 // 4,1-11.
Die Struktur der Seeszene (Jon 1,4-16), sowie die innere Entwicklung der Seeleute zeigen,
dass eine Bekehrung zu Jahwe intendiert ist. Diese Einsicht wird von der intertextuellen
Analyse von Vers 14 und 16 bestätigt. Ebenso erweist die Struktur der
Niniveperikope (3,3b-10) und die positive Charakterisierung der Niniviten eine Bekehrung
zum wahren Gott, ein Ergebnis, das von der intertextuellen Analyse des Glaubens,
der Buße, sowie der Reue Gottes gestützt wird.
Ergebnis: Das Jonabuch lehrt, dass Menschen außerhalb Israels eine Beziehung zu Jahwe
haben können, vermittelt durch einen Israeliten und realisiert, wenn sich die Heiden
bekehren. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / M. Th. (Old Testament)
