Abstract The god Enki (Sumerian)/Ea (Akkadian) is central to Mesopotamian myth, ritual and scholarship but there is still disagreement as to precisely what he is the god of. He governs subterranean water, magic, and ‘wisdom’—but what kind of wisdom was it? A traditional argument in Assyriology claims that Enki is more trickster than sage; his knowledge has to do with craft and cunning, not ethics or rectitude. This essay analyzes important neglected associations of Enki with Mesopotamian wisdom literature, demonstrating parallels with ideals found in the biblical book of Proverbs. In these texts Enki is associated with the proper conduct of human life, making him not just crafty and cunning but wise.
Enki(苏美尔人)/Ea(阿卡德人)神是美索不达米亚神话、仪式和学术的核心,但关于他究竟是什么神仍然存在分歧。他掌管地下水、魔法和“智慧”——但这是一种什么样的智慧呢?在亚述学中有一种传统的观点认为,恩基与其说是圣人,不如说是骗子;他的知识与技巧和狡猾有关,与道德或正直无关。这篇文章分析了Enki与美索不达米亚智慧文学之间被忽视的重要联系,展示了与圣经箴言中发现的理想的相似之处。在这些文本中,恩基与人类生活的正确行为联系在一起,使他不仅狡猾和狡猾,而且聪明。

Portentous Birds Flying West: On the Mesopotamian Origin of Homeric Bird-Divination 不祥的鸟向西飞:论荷马鸟类占卜的美索不达米亚起源

Abstract Drawing on the Akkadian omen series Summa Ālu and its predecessors, this essay argues for a Mesopotamian origin of Homeric bird-divination. Against the suggestion of Hogemann and Oettinger that Greek bird-divination has its closest parallels with Hittite bird-divination, I argue that both in its function as a tool for divination and in its specific content, Homeric bird-divination, if not all such ancient Greek divination, finds much closer parallels in Mesopotamian divination traditions than it does in Anatolian traditions. I suggest that the late 8th century B.C.E. and the decades before and after 1200 B.C.E. represent two periods when conditions were particularly ripe for the introduction of Mesopotamian bird-divination into the Aegean and that itinerant diviners, perhaps in the employment of armies, were the most likely conveyors of this particular form of divination.
摘要本文以阿卡德占卜系列Summa Ālu及其前身为基础,论证了荷马鸟类占卜起源于美索不达米亚。hoggemann和Oettinger认为希腊的鸟类占卜与赫梯的鸟类占卜有最密切的相似之处,但我认为,无论是作为占卜工具的功能,还是其具体内容,荷马的鸟类占卜,如果不是所有这样的古希腊占卜,在美索不达米亚的占卜传统中发现的相似之处要比在安纳托利亚的传统中发现的更接近。我认为,公元前8世纪晚期和公元前1200年前后的几十年是将美索不达米亚的鸟类占卜引入爱琴海的两个时期,这两个时期的条件特别成熟,而流动的占卜者,也许是在军队的雇佣下,最有可能是这种特殊占卜形式的传送者。

From “Kingship in Heaven” to King Lists: Syro-Anatolian Courts and the History of the World 从“天国的王权”到国王名单:叙利亚-安纳托利亚宫廷与世界史

AbstractI examine the literary and conceptual background of a Hurro-Hittite ritual calling on divinized royal ancestors (dsarrena), characters from Hurro-Hittite song, members of the Sargonic dynasty, a variety of kings from far-off lands, and the “lord of Hatti” (KUB 27.38). I show that the ritual provides a unique glimpse of the complex Near Eastern tradition telling the history of the world from its beginning. The ritual also helps us to understand how historical memory informed ritual behaviors that legitimated the kingship of regional rulers, allowing them access to the distant past and connecting them to world events. Overall, the sarrena ritual suggests that the histories of the divine and human worlds were linked into a single master narrative by the middle of the second millennium BCE.
摘要本文考察了赫罗-赫梯人祭祀神圣的王室祖先(dsarrena)、赫罗-赫梯歌曲中的人物、萨尔贡王朝的成员、来自遥远国度的各种国王以及“哈提之主”(KUB 27.38)的文学和概念背景。我认为,这个仪式提供了一个独特的机会,让我们得以一窥复杂的近东传统,从一开始就讲述着世界的历史。这种仪式也有助于我们理解历史记忆是如何影响仪式行为的,这些仪式行为使地区统治者的王权合法化,使他们能够接触到遥远的过去,并将他们与世界事件联系起来。总的来说,萨勒纳仪式表明,在公元前第二个千年中期,神和人类世界的历史被联系到一个单一的主叙述中。

AbstractIn this essay I explore the beginning lines of the most relevant cosmogonies from the eastern Mediterranean, focusing on the Enuma Elish, Genesis 1 and Hesiod’s Theogony. These opening lines reveal some of the challenges faced by the authors of these texts when committing to the written word their version of the beginning of the universe. Hesiod’s Theogony will be treated in more length as it presents an expanded introduction to the creation account. This close reading is followed by a few reflections on the question of authorship of these and other Greek and Near Eastern cosmogonies.
在这篇文章中,我探索了地中海东部最相关的宇宙论的开头几行,重点是Enuma Elish,创世纪1和赫西奥德的神学。这些开场白揭示了这些文本的作者在将他们对宇宙起源的描述写成文字时所面临的一些挑战。赫西奥德的《神权论》将以更长的篇幅来讨论,因为它对创造的叙述作了扩展的介绍。这个仔细的阅读之后,是对这些和其他希腊和近东宇宙论的作者问题的一些反思。

May Yhwh Bless You and Keep You from Evil: The Rhetorical Argument of Ketef Hinnom Amulet I and the Form of the Prayers for Deliverance in the Psalms 愿耶和华保佑你,使你远离邪恶:欣农护身符I的修辞论证和诗篇中祈求解脱的形式

AbstractMost of the attention that the two silver amulets discovered at Ketef Hinnom Jerusalem have received in recent scholarship has centered upon their date and relationship to the biblical texts. This is due in part to the fact that both amulets preserve formulations of the biblical Priestly Blessing from Numbers 6:24-26. The new edition of the amulets published in 2004, however, provides impetus for new questions about the form of the incantations on the amulets and what the magical objects tell us about ancient Judahite apotropaic practices. In particular, the new edition provides a clearer picture of the content and form on both amulets. In turn, the new edition paves the way for a better understanding of how the incantations functioned as magical texts, which attempted to make an argument about their own efficacy as apotropaic objects. Despite this fact, few studies have devoted sufficient to the overall form and content preserved in the incantations. The following paper will describe the content and structure of the incantation on Amulet I and argue that the specific statement made therein provides a unique glimpse into the argument of magical texts in ancient Judah. Finally, the following paper will also briefly compare the content and structure of the incantation to several Psalms that petition Yhwh for protection against various ills. Such a comparison reveals that there may have been more fluidity between magical formulae and ancient Judahite prayer traditions than previously recognized.
摘要在耶路撒冷欣农寺发现的两个银护身符在最近的学术研究中受到的关注主要集中在它们的年代和与圣经文本的关系上。这部分是由于两个护身符都保留了民数记6:24-26中圣经祭司祝福的表述。然而,2004年出版的新版《护身符》提出了新的问题,关于护身符上的咒语的形式,以及这些神奇的物体告诉我们古代犹太人的净化实践。特别是,新版对两种护身符的内容和形式提供了更清晰的描述。反过来,新版本为更好地理解咒语如何作为魔法文本发挥作用铺平了道路,它试图对它们本身作为净化物体的功效进行论证。尽管如此,很少有研究对这些咒语的整体形式和内容进行充分的研究。下面的文章将描述护身符I上的咒语的内容和结构,并认为其中所作的具体陈述为古代犹大的魔法文本的论点提供了独特的一瞥。最后,下面的文章也将简要地比较咒语的内容和结构的几个诗篇,请愿耶和华保护对各种疾病。这样的比较表明,在魔法公式和古代犹太祈祷传统之间,可能有比以前认识到的更多的流动性。

From (theogonic) mythos to (poetic) logos: reading Pindar’s genealogical metaphors after Freidenberg 从(神性的)神话到(诗意的)逻各斯:读品达在弗莱登堡之后的系谱隐喻

AbstractThis paper analyzes the use of kinship categories to refer to personified (hypostasized) concepts in Ancient Greek literature, with particular emphasis on Pindar. This device serves to include an abstract concept within a genealogy that is dominated by divinities or quasi-religious entities. Comparing the use of this device in Hesiod, Plato, and Pindar, I suggest that, before the emergence of properly analytic categories within the philosophical discourse, genealogical metaphor served as the most important means of concept formation available to Ancient Greeks. In particular, Pindar’s use of genealogical metaphors points to a productive encounter between image and concept. In this context, I review the neglected work of the Soviet Classicist Olga Freidenberg, who put forward a theory of poetic metaphor as a transitional phenomenon between mythological image and philosophical concept, and discuss the differences between the method of historical poetics employed by Freidenberg and the idealist paradigm that informs the better known work by Hermann Frankel, Bruno Snell, and Wilhelm Nestle on the shift from “mythos” to “logos” in early Greek thought and literature.
摘要本文分析了古希腊文学中用亲属范畴来指称拟人化的概念,并着重分析了品达的作品。这个装置的作用是在一个由神或准宗教实体支配的宗谱中包含一个抽象概念。通过比较赫西奥德、柏拉图和品达对这一手段的使用,我认为,在哲学话语中出现适当的分析范畴之前,系谱隐喻是古希腊人形成概念的最重要手段。特别是,品达对系谱隐喻的使用指出了形象和概念之间富有成效的相遇。在此背景下,我回顾了苏联古典主义者奥尔加·弗莱登伯格(Olga Freidenberg)被忽视的作品,他提出了诗歌隐喻理论,将其作为神话形象与哲学概念之间的过渡现象,并讨论了弗莱登伯格所采用的历史诗学方法与理想主义范式之间的差异,后者为赫尔曼·弗兰克尔(Hermann Frankel)、布鲁诺·斯内尔(Bruno Snell)和威廉·奈斯特(Wilhelm Nestle)更知名的作品提供了关于早期希腊思想和文学从“神话”到“逻索斯”的转变。

AbstractThe seven tablets of Enūma elis, “The Chaldean Genesis,” contain multiple creations artfully woven in a story that has the god Marduk as the hero. Most creation accounts found in Enūma elis are reminiscent of earlier traditions. Former narratives as well as related themes and motives are adopted and adapted by means of intentional alterations to suit the purpose of the new text. In this paper I study the ways in which various creations are included, tailored, and arranged to promote Marduk’s position as the head of the Babylonian pantheon.
【摘要】《迦勒底创世纪》中Enūma elis的七块石板包含了以马杜克神为英雄的故事中巧妙编织的多个造物。在Enūma elis中发现的大多数创世记录都让人想起了早期的传统。以前的叙述以及相关的主题和动机被采用和改编,通过有意的改变来适应新文本的目的。在本文中,我研究了各种创作被包括在内的方式,量身定制,并安排促进马杜克作为巴比伦万神殿首领的地位。

Politics and Time in the Baal Cycle 巴力周期中的政治与时间

AbstractThis essay considers the Ugaritic Baal Cycle in light of Mircea Eliade’s ideas about history and primordial archetypes. Unlike the Babylonian poem Enuma elish with which it is so often compared, the Baal Cycle does not depict a primordial combat and so does not root the political rule of today in the overcoming of a prior chaos. The Ugaritic poem adopts an attitude towards politics that is at odds with the one taken by the Babylonian creation narrative and championed by Eliade in his celebration of what he called “archaic ontology.” Instead of providing a means to overcome the contingency of historical becoming, the Baal Cycle embraces the historical aspect of political rule.
摘要本文结合米尔恰·埃利亚德的历史观和原始原型观来考察乌加里特·巴力循环。不像巴比伦的诗Enuma elish,它经常被与之比较,Baal周期没有描绘原始的战斗,因此没有将今天的政治统治植根于克服先前的混乱。乌加里特诗歌对政治的态度与巴比伦创造叙事的态度不一致,而埃利亚德在庆祝他所谓的“古代本体论”时支持这种态度。巴尔周期并没有提供一种手段来克服历史形成的偶然性,而是拥抱了政治统治的历史方面。

The Ugaritic poem adopts an attitude towards politics that is at odds with the one taken by the Babylonian creation narrative and championed by Eliade in his celebration of what he called “archaic ontology.” Instead of providing a means to overcome the contingency of historical becoming, the Baal Cycle embraces the historical aspect of political rule.","PeriodicalId":42129,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ancient Near Eastern Religions","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2012-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1163/15692124-12341235","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65152261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Is Isaiah 40–55 Really Monotheistic? 以赛亚书40-55章真的是一神论吗?

AbstractIsaiah 40-55 is often understood as a work bearing witness clearly and unambiguously to a “novel,” “consistent” and “extreme” monotheism, the monotheistic biblical work par excellence. Yet the author of this article challenges such claims in light of texts such as Isa 40:1-8 and 40:25-26, which recognize the existence of the heavenly host and the volition (40:25-26) or agency (40:1-8) of its members, and in view of Isa 51:9-11, which alludes clearly to the mythic conflict between Yhwh and the sea dragon as a reality. A statement such as “besides me there is no god” (45:5) must, therefore, be interpreted in light of these texts, which are all too frequently ignored by those who speak of Second Isaiah’s “radical” monotheism. “Besides me there is no god” is more likely a claim about Yhwh’s incomparability and unique power and agency than about his sole existence. If there is anything radical and unprecedented about Isaiah 40-55, it is the poet’s rhetoric, which seems to suggest a new meaning and more restricted use for the word “god” ().Though the host remain a heavenly reality for Second Isaiah, serving Yhwh as they have always done, they are no longer called gods.
赛40-55章通常被理解为一部作品,它清楚而明确地见证了一种“新颖的”、“一致的”和“极端的”一神论,一神论圣经作品的卓越之处。然而,这篇文章的作者在以赛亚书40:1-8和40:25-26的经文中对这种说法提出了质疑,这些经文承认了天军的存在及其成员的意志(40:25-26)或代理(40:1-8),并且以赛亚书51:9-11清楚地暗示了耶和华和海龙之间的神话冲突是一个现实。因此,像“除我以外再没有神”(45:5)这样的陈述必须根据这些经文来解释,而这些经文常常被那些谈论以赛亚书第二章“激进的”一神论的人所忽视。“除了我以外,再没有神”更像是在说耶和华的无可比拟和独特的力量,而不是他唯一的存在。如果说《以赛亚书》40-55章有什么激进和前所未有的地方,那就是诗人的修辞,这似乎暗示了“上帝”一词的新含义和更有限的用法()。虽然对第二以赛亚来说,这支军队仍然是天上的现实,他们一如既往地侍奉耶和华,但他们不再被称为神。
