Arguing the Concept of the Trinity from the Hebrew Bible:Luther's Comments on the Plural Grammatical Forms Touching the Divine in the Prophets Situated against Their Jewish and Christian Reception until the Age of the Reformation/Matthew Oseka

Matthew Oseka 

ABSTRACT

The present paper examines Luther’s comments on the plural grammatical forms touching the Divine, which he was able to identify in the Prophets (Josh. 24:19; 2 Sam. 7:23; Jer. 10:10, 23:36; Hos. 12:1), in light of their Jewish and Christian reception until the Age of the Reformation. Luther’s christological handling of the Hebrew scholarship in the process of interpreting the Hebrew Bible was exemplified by his exposition of Genesis 49:10 because his exegesis of that verse provided an overview of his mature approach to the Tanakh. 

 

撮要

本文檢視了路德如何解釋有關上帝的複數語法形式,這些稱呼取自先知書 (約二十四19;撒下七23;耶十10,二十三36;何十二1),並參考宗教改革時 代之前的猶太教和基督教的用法。在路德對創世記四十九章10節的闡釋中,我們尤其看到他對於希伯來學者在解釋希伯來聖經的過程,有關基督論的處理,因為他對於該節經文的注釋讓我們全面地看到他怎樣成熟地看《塔納赫》。
