Μια ενδιαφέρουσα αρχαιολογική ανακάλυψη στην Πομπηία / An interesting archaeological find in Pompeii


 Η Πομπηία εξακολουθεί να μας εντυπωσιάζει με τα  ευρήματα που έρχονται στο φως κατά τα τελευταία χρόνια. Τα τελευταία ευρήματα προέρχονται από μία βίλλα στην περιοχή Civita Giuliana, βόρεια της Πομπηίας. Ήδη νωρίτερα οι αρχαιολόγοι εντόπισαν έναν στάβλο και τους σκελετούς δύο αλόγων, ένα άρμα καθώς και τους σκελετούς δύο 
ανδρών. Οι πρόσφατες αρχαιολογικές εργασίες έφεραν στο φως ένα δωμάτιο, το οποίο κατά την εκτίμηση των αρχαιολόγων, χρησιμοποιούνταν από μία οικογένεια δούλων. Στο χώρο βρέθηκαν τρεις ξύλινες κλίνες, ένα ξύλινο μπαούλο με διάφορα μεταλλικά αντικείμενα, ένας άξονας άρματος και διάφορα κεραμικά αγγεία. Μολονότι η ταύτιση του δωματίου ως χώρου κατοικίας κάποιων δούλων της οικίας είναι πιθανή, φαίνεται πως το δωμάτιο χρησιμοποιούνταν επίσης ως χώρος αποθήκευσης. Ίσως κάποια άλλα ευρήματα να ενισχύσουν την υπόθεση σύνδεσης του χώρου με τους δούλους της οικίας:

Η Εύα σύντροφος ή βοηθός; / Eve, a partner or a helper?

 Στην ιστοσελίδα TheTorah.com ο Gary Rendsburg (Rutgers University) συζητά τη σημασία της φράσης עֵזֶר כְּנֶגְדֹּו ʿezer ke-negdo (Γένεσις 2:18) που περιγράφει το ρόλο της Εύας δίπλα στον Αδάμ. Αξιοποιώντας τις θέσεις του Zeʾev Ben-Ḥayyim (1907‒2013), καθηγητή των εβραϊκών στο Hebrew University, ο Rendsburg υποστηρίζει ότι η φράση, που απαντά μόνο στην αρχή της Γενέσεως, δε σημαίνει τον βοηθό, όπως αποδίδεται στις αρχαίες και νεότερες μεταφράσεις, αλλά του ισότιμου συντρόφου:

 Theologische Beiträge 21/4 (2021)

N. T. Wright (Übersetzt von Daniel N. Herrmann), "Die Bibel und christliche Mission," 239–249
The article argues that the Christian Bible hinges on Jesus. It looks forwards from his complex achievement to the ultimate establishment of his universal lordship, and to the tasks for which, in anticipation of that end, he commissions his followers and equips them by his Spirit. It looks back to the biblical narratives of creation and covenant, of Adam and Abraham, of Moses, David and the prophets, seeing there the deep roots both of Jesus‘ own work, present and future, and of the church‘s tasks in the interim. The Bible thus constitutes the God-given narrative within which the church discerns its vocation and orders its life. The first Christians did not suppose that their fresh readings of Israel‘s scriptures were identical to those on offer among their Jewishcontemporaries, though there are similarities and analogies. But they claimed that once they saw the events concerning Jesus as the goal towards which the scriptures had been tending they saw not only a deep coherence in the Bible itself but a fresh vision of how those same scriptures, with their tantalising glimpses of a glorious ultimate future, were to be fulfilled. The events concerning Jesus form a coherent whole, despite modern tendencies to break them up, whether into scattered fragments of early Christian reflection or into the two large (and to modern eyes somewhat contradictory) themes of ‘kingdom‘ and ‘cross‘. For clarity‘s sake the article separates the different strands of kingdom, cross, resurrection, ascension, second coming and the gift of the Spirit, concluding with an all-embracing reflection on the underlying theology of Temple and Creation.

E. J. David Kramer, "Mission in der Endzeit. N. T. Wrights Eschatologie und missionarische Ekklesiologie," 250–266
By interpreting the end times as commencing in the New Testament period, N. T. Wright locates the church’s mission within an eschatological framework. This article traces the contours of both the past and future dimensions of Wright’s eschatology and recognizes its linchpin in Jesus’ crucifixion and new-creation-inaugurating resurrection. A portrayal of Wright’s eschatologically conditioned missionary ecclesiology follows, focusing on his understanding of the gospel as the proclamation of Jesus’ lordship, his vision for the church’s mission, and his political theology. Finally, the author suggests that Wright’s work is conducive to a missionally focused biblical theology which challenges the church to live in anticipation of the new creation.

Florian Förg, "„Versiegle nicht die Worte der Weissagung“. (Apc 21,10): Apokalyptische Texte verstehen und predigen.," 267–279
Apocalyptic texts expect the visible kingdom of God to come and thus divide time into two eons. Besides, they distinguish between an earthly and a transcendent reality. Being pseudonymous in authorship, they share a global, sometimes cosmic horizon and expect a ruler who is coming down from God’s heavenly realm. – The exegete should put effort in studying how the text reuses earlier scriptures, motifs, and symbols, and try to understand the historical context as much as possible. – The main focus in preaching apocalyptic texts should be to convey hope to the listeners.

Reiner Braun, "Warum der Bibliolog viel Raum verdient, wenn es um die Vermittlung von Bibeltexten geht. ," 280–290
Among the didactic methods of biblestudy, the bibliodrama (German: "Bibliolog") is of special importance because it is oriented towards biblical and Jewish forms and stands for a unity of form and content. This is shown in particular by the parallelism membrorum. The bibliodrama is particularly close to the "core business" of the church and may become a unique selling point, opening up future perspectives for the church.

Martin Meiser, "Die Selbstpräsentation des Paulus im Galaterbrief im Vergleich mit antiker rhetorischer und epistolographischer Praxis,"  7-35 
Recent rhetoric research on Paul no longer only discusses descriptive aspects, but also evaluative aspects. The present contribution compares Paul and Cicero with regard to their self-presentation in order to better understand the polemics of the Epistle to the Galatians and the ethos of the apostle, also in detail. For this purpose, it draws not only on some ancient textbooks of rhetoric, but also on speeches actually delivered by Cicero, which Cicero probably revised later.

Cha-Yong Ku, "'Siehe, der Mensch ist geworden wie unsereiner und weiß, was gut und böse ist': Gen 3,22 als Ironie?"  36-49
Dieser Aufsatz versucht, Gen 3,22a literarisch auszulegen und fragt dabei nach der versteckten Bedeutung, die der Autor in seine literarische Darstellung hineingelegt hat. Die Rede Gottes in Gen 3,22a scheint im umgebenden Text eher unverständlich zu sein. Denn die Aussage der Schlange, dass es möglich sei, durch die Erkenntnis von Gut und Böse gottgleich zu werden, wird als bloße Lüge nachgewiesen. Daraus lässt sich folgern, dass Gen 3,22a pure Ironie ist, die eine beißende Kritik Gottes an der Herausforderung durch den Menschen zum Ausdruck bringt.

Benjamin Lensink, "The 'Movement and Rest' in Gospel of Thomas 50," 50-69
The fiftieth logion of the Gospel of Thomas is an enigmatic triad of questions and answers told by Jesus to his disciples. The answer to the third question “What is the sign of your (pl) Father which is in you (pl)?” reads “it is movement and rest.” This phrase has no known parallels in similar literature and its meaning is unclear. The current article evaluates different explanations offered in recent scholarship before assessing the words “movement” and “rest” in the Gospel of Thomas as a whole. It then gives an overview of four possible contexts: Genesis, Jewish Hermeticism, Platonism, and Aristotelianism. The article concludes with claiming that a Platonist view makes most sense: Just as the Demiurge in Plato’s Timaeus placed the rotating soul – which moves while staying at rest – into the head of humankind, so the sign of the Father in his elect disciples is movement and rest. 

Romeo Popa, "Ethik als Vermittlung zwischen Generationen in den Pastoralbriefen," 70-96
In the Pastoral Letters the problem of the relationship between age groups is most clearly expressed in early Christian literature. In the course of the reorganization of church structures resistance against younger leaders is attested (1Tim 4:12-15). New “false doctrines” further fuel the tension between generations because especially “young widows” (1Tim 5:11-15; 2Tim 3,6) show interest in such theological offers. Consequently, they are also given special attention in the paraenesis, whereby the paternalistic tendencies are radicalized. The theological confrontation with the opponents and the development of age-appropriate ethic discourses are illuminated on the background of the relations between generations. 

Alexander Romualdus Dimas Pele Alu, "'Whom are You Seeking?' in the Fourth Gospel," 97-118
Of the four Gospels, the fourth Gospel uses the word “ζητέω” most often. The question “Whom are you seeking?” which is typical of the Evangelist, is addressed to various interlocutors: once to the two disciples of John the Baptist (Τί ζητεῖτε 1:38) and Mary Magdalene (τίνα ζητεῖς 20:15), and twice to the people who were going to arrest Jesus (Τίνα ζητεῖτε 18:4,7). The purpose of this research is to study a hypothesis: The seeking of Jesus by the two disciples in the call narrative (1:35-42) and Mary in the resurrection narrative (20:1-18) frame the failure of the Jews in the arrestation narrative (18:1-11).
