摘要

自20世纪中期以来，学者们强调了箴言与古埃及智慧文本之间的相似之处，最被认可的是“阿莫内普的教诲”(约公元前1100年)。因此，一些人断言，这种关系指向一个可能的埃及起源和圣经概念的起源，如箴言3:17-18中的生命树;11:30;十三12;福音15:4。认识到《箴言》与古埃及的无可争议的联系，本文通过比较研究的方法认为，《箴言》中的生命之树不应该被解释为古埃及新王国时期神圣的树女神的意识形态前提。

The Tree of Life in Ancient Egypt and the Book of Proverbs

Since the mid-twentieth century, scholars have highlighted the similarities between the book of Proverbs and wisdom texts from ancient Egypt, the most recognized being “The Instruction of Amenemope” (ca. 1100 bce). Consequently, some have asserted that this relationship points toward a likely Egyptian provenance and origin of biblical concepts like the Tree of Life in Proverbs 3:17–18; 11:30; 13:12; 15:4. Recognizing the undisputable contact with ancient Egypt, the present work argues through the method of comparative study that the Tree of Life in the book of Proverbs should not be interpreted with an ideological antecedent of a divine tree goddess in the New Kingdom period of ancient Egypt.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Ancient Near Eastern Religions (JANER) focuses on the religions of the area commonly referred to as the Ancient Near East encompassing Egypt, Mesopotamia, Syria-Palestine, and Anatolia, as well as immediately adjacent areas under their cultural influence, from prehistoric times onward to the beginning of the common era. JANER thus explicitly aims to include not only the Biblical, Hellenistic and Roman world as part of Ancient Near Eastern civilization but also the impact of its religions on the western Mediterranean. JANER is the only scholarly journal specifically and exclusively addressing this range of topics.
