| Summary: | Ex 15:3 is a stock phrase on Samaritan amulets from the Byzantine period. The article demonstrates that the abbreviated version 'God is a/the conqueror' derived from a conflation of Ex 15:3 with Deut 10:17 and became a fixed epithet. Furthermore, evidence from medieval Samaritan historiographical sources supports the hypothesis that the amulets with this verse were worn in times of war.\n4207 Ex 15,3 est une phrase-clé sur les amulettes samaritaines d’époque byzantine. L’article montre que la formule courte, «Dieu est un/le conquérant» provient d’une fusion avec Dt 10,17; l’épithète se fixa alors ainsi. Bien plus, des indices provenant de sources historiographiques samaritaines médiévales appuient l’hypothèse que les amulettes avec ce verset étaient portées en temps de guerre.\n4207 \n4207 |
