Tempetes : quatre recits bibliques - l'homme, la nature, la mort
Chantal Reynier - Collection Lire la Bible
Résumé
--
The prophet Jonas finds himself in a terrible storm that sweeps him away, carrying him to the very gates of death. The sea is raging, Jesus is asleep, his panicking disciples awaken him: he calms the frothing waves. Jesus goes to meet his disciples walking on the choppy waters. Paul, the Apostle, encounters a violent storm on his way to Rome. All of these stories involving storms have been interpreted again and again over the centuries, in biblical commentaries, in literature and the arts. The dangerous, indeed tragic aspect of the sea has often been compared to God's anger. The author reveals the originality of the Bible's symbolic usage of the storm. To do this, she makes an in-depth study of Biblical texts while comparing them with Antique literature. The theme of the storm is more than ever a topical one. Not only is this natural phenomenon at the heart of political and environmental debate, it also crystalizes men's anguish about life, death and the hereafter.
