De interpretatie van de Atrachasis-mythe, een Babylonische oergeschiedenis
More LessAbstractThe publication, in 1969, of ‘Atra-ḫasīs. The Babylonian Story of the Flood’, which made an important Mesopotamian myth on primeval history available for study, started a lively scholarly discussion on the interpretation and ‘message’ of the text. In 1980, R.A. Oden (ZAW 93, 1981, 197-216) drew up a preliminary balance of this discussion, also from the Old Testament point of view. This article, again ten years later, does the same, though more from the Assyriological perspective. It concentrates on the more recent studies and the main topics of the discussion: the view of the gods and the crisis among them; the creation, nature and function of man; the reason for divine displeasure and punishment culminating in the flood; and, finally, the measures taken to resolve the problems and to ensure a successful coexistence between god and man.

Ostracon, schrijftafel of boekrol? Jeremia 36, Jesaja 30:8 en twee ostraca uit Saqqara
More Less*Bij dit artikel gaat mijn dank uit naar dr. R.J. Demaree en naar de leden van het werkgezelschap ’t Schrijverke van de RUU voor hun gewaardeerde hulp.
AbstractIn this article the question is raised: How were the prophecies now to be found in the Prophetical Books of the Old Testament written down originally and what writing-material was used then? The author draws the attention to two Greek ostraca found near the Sacred Animal Necropolis at North Saqqâra. On these ostraca an Egyptian priest has written down five different versions of a letter containing a prophecy. The texts are translated and their implications for the earlier raised question are discussed.

Johannes XXII en het conflict over de visio beatifica
More LessAbstractThe article discusses the theological context of the discussion started by John XXII in 1331 about the question whether the souls of the saints in heaven are directly admitted to the beatific vision of God or not. It must be noted that John’s opinion in this matter was less extreme than many scholars sofar presumed. It was John’s sincere intention to make a papal decision on this matter, and there is strong evidence that only death (1334) prevented him from doing so. The conflict about the beatific vision clearly shows John’s urge to interfere in theological matters. He failed, however, to establish unity between the various theological opinions, and his legalistic approach may have provoked many theologians to fierce reactions against the papal opinion.

Schrift en rede, of: Over een vermeende tegenstelling tussen Spinoza en Meyer
More LessAbstractTraditionally Spinoza scholars accept a disagreement between Spinoza’s hermeneutics, proposed, demonstrated and exercised in his TTP (1670) and, on the other hand, the exegetical method, as it was explained and practised by his friend and pupil, Lodewijk Meyer in his Philosophia Sanctae Scripturae Interpres (1666). This opinion, so it is claimed, originates from a misreading of a passage in Spinoza’s letter XLIII as a consequence of a wrong exposition of Spinoza’s point of view by L. van Velthuysen, and, secondly, from an epistemological misunderstanding of the relationship reason-experience, applied to reason-texts. The upshot of the article is a revaluation of Meyer’s work in the context of the history of Spinozism.
