| Summary: | K. Schmid and E. Otto have suggested that the expression „a man from the house of Levi took the daughter of Levi“ (Ex 2,1) showed that Moses was born illegitimately, and that the illegitimacy caused his mother to expose the child. If this interpretation were right, Ex 2,1 could have been the beginning of an originally independent Exodus narrative. The paper discusses the evidence put forward by Schmid and Otto and finally refutes their interpretation. Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der These von K. Schmid und E. Otto, dass aus Ex 2,1 hervorgehe, dass Mose unehelich geboren sei. Sollte diese Interpretation zutreffen, könnte Ex 2,1 der Anfang einer ursprünglich selbstständigen Exoduserzählung gewesen sein. Auf Grund einer Prüfung des von Schmid und Otto vorgelegten Befundes ist ihre Interpretation jedoch abzuweisen. |
