Summary: | The motif of «divine wrath leading to understanding» in ancient Near Eastern and biblical tradition is used as a primary example to show that creation and royal ideologies are linked in both biblical and ancient Near Eastern mythology. The relationship between the Babylonian Akitu festival, the Egyptian Sed festival of Akhenaten and the role of David as king in Psalms 2 and 89 forms the center of a discussion about the implied intellectual world which underlies biblical theology. Le thème de « la colère divine menant à la compréhension » dans la tradition du Proche-Orient ancien et de la Bible, est utilisé comme exemple premier montrant comment les idéologies de création et les idéologies royales sont liées dans la mythologie biblique et proche-orientale. Le lien entre la fête babylonienne de l'akitu, la fête égyptienne sed d'Akhenaton et le rôle de David comme roi dans les Psaumes 2 et 89 forme le centre d'une discussion à propos du monde intellectuel implicite qui sous-tend la théologie biblique. |
