Kotmelová, Bedřiska ; Sláma, Petr (advisor) ; Ber, Viktor (referee)
The bachelor ́s thesis "The Ecclesiastical Dimension of the Old Testament Celebration of Pesach: IN and OUT" explores the phenomenon of exclusion in the Old Testament, in particular the exclusion from the feast of Pesach. The exclusion concerned impure persons and excommunicated persons. Consequently, the question of three groups is discussed whose standing was ambiguous: foreigners, women and physically disabled. Based on the analysis of Old Testament texts, the matter of openness and closeness of the Israeli community is simultaneously analysed, as it is reflected in the Easter feasts.

In the Old Testament is among the texts at first creation's report in Gn 1, others creations Psalms (Ps 8, Ps 19 and Ps 146) and 38-41 chapter of Job. Through many thematic similarities and disimilarities in ideas, it looks like very significant differences in the form of the texts presentations. While Psalm 104 is a praise of God in personal relationship to the God, the report of creation in Gn 1 is unpersonal story abote the God and in case of Jb 38-41 is a preaching speech of God to man.

LORD IS A KING. Old Testament metaphor from the perspective of cognitive linguistics: Cognitive-linguistic and translatological interpretation.
Procházková, Ivana ; Prudký, Martin (advisor) ; Sláma, Petr (referee) ; Karlík, Petr (referee)
This disertation uses methods of culturally-oriented and cognitive linguistics to describe the meaning of the Old Testament metaphor "God-King". The disertation follows up on the work of G. Lakoff, J. Johnson, M. Turner, G. Fauconnier, as well as the work of Czech cognitive linguistics (in particular, I. Vaňková). The author applies the theory of conceptual metaphor, the theory of mental spaces, the theory of conceptual integration, and some theories of cognitive semantics (for example, the theory of stereotype/prototype), to Old Testament texts. The author describes the meaning of the metaphors God, the shepherd, God, the warior, God, the lion, and God, the eagle in the Psalms as being partial expositions of the King metaphor. The metaphorical meaning is described by means of generic narrative structures abbreviated by the letters GPS in Czech) These are abstract narrative structures, which the author has isolated in the texts. They are source domains (shepherding, war, lion and eagle), and they repeatedly participate in the structuralization or metaphorical formulations. The methods of culturally-oriented and cognitive linguistics are also used to analyze and interpret Psalm 44, Psalm 76 and Lamentations 3:1-24. In the last section of the disertation, functionally conceived translations follow up...

This paper discusses the perspective of Sigmund Freud on the figure of Moses. It seeks to understand the reasons for writing the book, thought paradigms, historical images, which were thought to author axis. A large part is dedicated to criticism of Freud's works, as well as psychoanalysis, which for him was a key area for understanding the history of the Jewish nation, which was constituted after a period of suppressed neuroses. Indispensable area is the multiplicity of areas of the human soul and the mentality of the Jewish community. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

When God comes to know: The verbal root j-d-a as the predicate of God in Pentateuch and its comperhension in Rabbinic and Patristic literature
Nováková, Zora ; Sláma, Petr (advisor) ; Prudký, Martin (referee)
This Diploma thesis deals with two main issues. First, it explores the verbal root yadaʽ (know, learn) in the Pentateuch on places where God or the Lord is a grammatical subject, and second, how this verb has been interpreted by the rabbinic and patristic literature. The first part of the thesis focuses on general characteristics of the verb in contexts where it can reliably testify about God as the subject matter. The second part inquiries into exegesis of two particular cases of appearance of the verb yadaʽ in the so called intransitive form which occurs in the Pentateuch only twice, in Gen 18:21 and Ex 2:25. These two incidences are interconnected not only by the use of the verb yadaʽ but also by the complexity of explication and a number of other motives, especially the term of groaning. Both of the cases represent a groaning cry of the suffering people which is followed by God's response. While in Gen 18:21, the groaning comes from Sodom, in Ex 2:25, there are the sons of Israel crying from Egypt. However, God's knowledge does not precede these situations, it is a response to the resounding crying. The third part of my thesis analyses how the two given contexts are interpreted by rabbinic and patristic literature which can be regarded as sisterly traditions of interpretation of the first centuries of...

Řehák, Robert ; Prudký, Martin (advisor) ; Sláma, Petr (referee) ; Nosek, Bedřich (referee)
This doctoral thesis submitted to the The Protestant Theological Faculty of the Charles University in Prague in 2007 studies [in the framework of biblical onomatology] synchronic methods of interpretation of Hebrew proper names in the Old Testament and in rabbinic literature. The thesis reveals, denominates, and defines, through quoting examples, thirteen main methods of interpretation of Hebrew biblical proper names, which include the following: identification with words of identical consonants, derivation from verb roots, decomposition, repeated use of the consonants, notaricon, gematry, atbash, ahas bata, retrograde reading, metathesis, replacement of consonants, transposition of all consonants and derivation from other language. For every given method, the thesis cites the source of onomatological phenomenon, analyzes it and tries to apply the interpretation method on other Hebrew biblical proper names which are not yet decoded. The thesis attempts, in its conclusion, to apply all the potential methods of interpretation on one selected proper name. Following such application, the number of possible interpretations rises. When applied to the Hebrew proper name Simon, the number of possible interpretations of one proper name reached 22 interpretations. Application of all the possible methods of...

Furthermore it illustrates accepted practice of using the psalms for preaching even though liturgical use of psalter was a prayer. The dissertation shows topical, literary and rhetorical inputs the psalms can provide for writing sermons. The final part delivers three examples of sets of sermons employing these options.

An analysis of expression- and content-oriented passages of the Torah: Texts of the Torah in the semiotic perspective of Charles S. Peirce, Yuri Lotman and Umberto Eco
Jezný, Samuel ; Sláma, Petr (advisor) ; Rückl, Jan (referee)
An analysis of expression- and content-oriented passages of the Torah: Texts of the Torah in the semiotic perspective of Charles S. Peirce, Yuri Lotman and Umberto Eco The aim of the presented thesis is to introduce the basic semiotic concepts of Charles Sanders Peirce, Yuri M. Lotman and Umberto Eco. These ideas should be beneficial for the interpretation of the Bible in the Czech republic and Slovakia: particularly in the Old Testament area. The thesis also proposes a new classification of the Torah's texts, and so identify, which functions could be subserved by the particular text. Finally, we intend to draft a new, slightly different model of exegesis, which could help us find new interesting interpretations of the Old Testament texts. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
