Le monothéisme biblique
Thierry Legrand, Eberhard Bons - Collection Lectio divina
Résumé
--
Over the last few decades, archeological excavation in Palestine has increased interest in monotheism as represented in the Bible. Indeed, the discovery of a large number of sacred objects has shaken a hypothesis that was universally accepted: that Israel adopted Yahwist monotheism at the time of the Exodus at the very latest. In more recent debate, no one can ignore the question of the violence supposedly engendered by monotheistic exclusivism. Hence it was vital to take a fresh look at monotheism, its challenges and its implications. Specialists in biblical science, the history of religions and the humanities have also made contributions. How was the unicity and the incomparability of the Jewish and Christian God expressed? How can the specificity of one God be conceived, while mentioning other gods and heavenly beings? How did Jewish and Christian monotheism receive the way in which learned men and philosophers from the 'pagan' world evoked a unique God? All of these questions have been rarely investigated or answered. In this book, the reader will find an in-depth study of texts from Judaism, early Christianity and literature from the Greco-Roman world. This excellent scientific contribution, on a subject that is gaining in importance today, will undoubtedly contribute to today's dialogue, the creation of mutual respect and hopefully, more peaceful societies.
