Experimentar el paso de Dios: diálogo entre exégesis, teología y tradición en Ex 33,12-23

Abstract

This work investigates the results obtained from the diachronic exegesis applied in the pericope of Ex 33,12– 23, and highlights the theological contribution of the redactional criticism in the context of the literary unity of the Pentateuch; this, as a methodological proposal that favors the pericope understanding from the holistic view of ancient sources and other different pre-exilic materials that make up this literary block. These results are also considered the basis or foundation to obtain the theological keys of the pericope from the conceptual categories of Law and worship, which consider the two editorial units of the same, located as follows: first, v. 12 to v. 17; second, v. 18 to v. 23. This is how the theologies emerging from worship and the Law are key to reading in the theological framework of the covenant. In this way, their analysis and interpretation contribute to the understanding of the narrative and thematic core of the Pentateuch. In turn, the contributions that the interpretative traditions of Halakite and Haggadite origin, typical of the rabbinic midras and its middot, are theological references that allow new categories of study, analysis and updating of the biblical contents, present in the study pericope and throughout the Pentateuch. This process of exegesis, theology and biblical interpretation is proposed as an investigative and pedagogical alternative for a greater and better approach to integral study, and the comprehensive study and broader understanding of the first five books of the biblical canon, which provides and incorporates tools for updating the revealed message, both in the ethical, legal, and liturgical perspectives of the Jewish faith and the Christian faith experience.
