  • Sintflut Textübersicht
    Die Sintfluterzählung (Gen 6,5-9,17) – Eine Komposition aus zwei unterschiedlichen Erzählsträngen (Quellen?) Die Sintfluterzählung ist ein Lehrbeispiel dafür, dass die Unterscheidung in unterschiedliche Erzählstränge (Quellen) eine sinnvolle Hypothese zum Verständnis biblischer Texte ist. Auch im Text der Lutherbibel lässt sich mühelos erkennen, dass dem jetzigen Text der Sintfluterzählung zwei unterschiedliche Variationen desselben Erzählstoffes zugrunde liegen. Erkennbar sind sie sowohl an Widersprüchen im Erzählablauf als auch in Doppelungen einzelner Züge der Erzählung. (Vgl. Skript: Grundkurs AT, Kap. 5). 1. Ursache der Flut 6,5: Bosheit aller Menschen 6,11f. Verderbnis der Erde und allen Fleisches 2. Tiere in der Arche 7,2: Sieben reine und zwei unreine 6,19f: je zwei von allem Tiere bzw.

  • Noah Und Die Sintflut Eine Klanggeschichte an Der Orgel Für Kinder Ab 5 Jahren Von Susanna Und Uwe Maibaum
    Noah und die Sintflut Eine Klanggeschichte an der Orgel für Kinder ab 5 Jahren von Susanna und Uwe Maibaum Die Musik soll improvisiert werden, in Anlehnung an die notierten Notizen oder auch ganz anders. Zu Beginn kann das Regenbogenlied einstudiert und gesungen werden, eventuell auch nur der Refrain. Lied „Leuchte, leuchte bunter Regenbogen“ (evt. nur den Refrain singen) Sprecher: In der Bibel wird von einer Zeit erzählt, in der die Menschen böse und gemein waren. Sie belogen einander, sie nahmen sich gegenseitig Dinge weg, machten Sachen kaputt und es war ihnen ganz egal, ob sie einem anderen Menschen oder einem Tier weh taten. Da bereute es Gott, dass er den Menschen geschaffen hatte und sprach: „Ich will die Menschen, die ich selber gemacht habe, so nicht haben. Ich habe keine Freude an ihnen. Alles Leben auf der Erde soll wieder aufhören.“ Orgel: düstere Klänge, unheimlich …. Sprecher: Nur ein Mann fand Gnade in seinen Augen und das war Noah, der zusammen mit seiner Frau und seinen drei Söhnen Sem, Ham und Jafet in der Zeit der Geschichte lebte. Er war fromm und Gott gehorsam. Er betete und lebte so, wie es Gott gefiel. Deswegen sagte Gott eines Tages zu ihm: „Noah, ich sehe, die Menschen sind nicht so geworden, wie ich es wollte. Ich werde allem Leben auf der Erde wieder ein Ende setzen, damit das Böse aufhört. Nur dich und deine Familie will ich vor dem Untergang bewahren. Baue eine großes Schiff, baue eine Arche! In der sollt ihr überleben und mit euch von jeder Art der Tiere ein Paar!“ Und Noah begann, zusammen mit seinen Söhnen, die Arche zu bauen.

ISBN 978-3-438-05122-6. 6 Approximately a year after the publication of the New English Translation of the 7 Septuagint (NETS), scholarship has now been enriched by the publication of an 8 annotated German translation: Septuaginta Deutsch (hereafter: LXX.D). This 9 translation is the product of a decade of intensive study of the Septuagint in Germany. 10 The project was announced in this Bulletin eight years ago.1 Since then, the project 11 has generated several stimulating congresses, which have been documented in major 12 publications in the field of Septuagint studies.2 It is therefore no exaggeration to state 13 that—like its English counterpart—this modern translation of the Septuagint, too, has 14 been long expected and hardly needs any introduction or advertisement for the 15 readership of this Bulletin.3 Septuaginta Deutsch is a very valuable contribution to 16 Bible study. It offers an accurate German translation of Greek versions of Hebrew 17 Scripture along with a broad variety of references and introductions.

  • The Influence of Ancient Esoteric Thought Through
    THROUGH THE LENS OF FREEMASONRY: THE INFLUENCE OF ANCIENT ESOTERIC THOUGHT ON BEETHOVEN’S LATE WORKS BY BRIAN S. GAONA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Music with a concentration in Performance and Literature in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2010 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Clinical Assistant Professor/Artist in Residence Brandon Vamos, Chair Professor William Kinderman, Director of Research Associate Professor Donna A. Buchanan Associate Professor Zack D. Browning ii ABSTRACT Scholarship on Ludwig van Beethoven has long addressed the composer’s affiliations with Freemasonry and other secret societies in an attempt to shed new light on his biography and works. Though Beethoven’s official membership remains unconfirmed, an examination of current scholarship and primary sources indicates a more ubiquitous Masonic presence in the composer’s life than is usually acknowledged. Whereas Mozart’s and Haydn’s Masonic status is well-known, Beethoven came of age at the historical moment when such secret societies began to be suppressed by the Habsburgs, and his Masonic associations are therefore much less transparent. Nevertheless, these connections surface through evidence such as letters, marginal notes, his Tagebuch, conversation books, books discovered in his personal library, and personal accounts from various acquaintances. This element in Beethoven’s life comes into greater relief when considered in its historical context. The “new path” in his art, as Beethoven himself called it, was bound up not only with his crisis over his incurable deafness, but with a dramatic shift in the development of social attitudes toward art and the artist.

  • The Flood Narratives in Gen 6-9 and Darren Aronofsky's Film “Noah”
    Lee, “Gen 6-9 and Aronofsky’s Film ‘Noah’,” OTE 29/2 (2016): 297-317 297 The Flood Narratives in Gen 6-9 and Darren Aronofsky’s Film “Noah”*1 LYDIA LEE (NORTH-WEST UNIVERSITY, POTCHEFSTROOM CAMPUS) ABSTRACT Since the release of Darren Aronofsky’s film “Noah” in 2014, questions have been raised with regard to the relation between the film and the Bible. This article compares the flood stories in Gen 6- 9 and Aronofsky’s film “Noah.” Probing some interesting and sig- nificant divergences between these two texts, I argue that the film “Noah” offers a good opportunity to discuss the open nature of the biblical texts, which often stimulates further transformations and interpretations. KEY WORDS: Aranofsky, Noah, Gen 6-9, hermeneutics, Pentateuchal criticism, ancient Jewish interpretation. A INTRODUCTION In 2014, the award-winning director Darren Aronofsky transformed a biblical epic into a blockbuster film – “Noah.” Informed by his Jewish upbringing, Aronofsky uses the film to create his own midrash on the Noah story.2 He retells the biblical story of the flood recorded in Gen 6-9, narrating how Noah and his family have endured and survived the flood sent out by the Creator. The film includes a breath-taking scenery, dramatic plot, and above all complex characters. For the general public, a natural curiosity arises with regard to the * Article submitted: 30/05/2016; peer reviewed: 23/06/2016; accepted: 11/07/2016.
