Abstract

In this article, an exercise in Jewish philosophy, I propose a taxonomy that can account for and organize all of the many species of holiness that we find in the Hebrew Bible. Each species admits of precise definition. Moreover, the genus as a whole can be unified by a guiding metaphor, suggested by the Bible itself. Holiness, according to this metaphor, is bestowed by a certain type of gaze, and ultimately by occupying the centre of the field of God's attention.

上帝眼中的苹果：圣经中关于圣洁的描述

在这篇文章中，作为犹太哲学的一项练习，我提出了一种分类法，可以解释和组织我们在《希伯来圣经》中发现的神圣的所有种类。每个种类都有精确的定义。此外，《圣经》本身提出的一个指导性隐喻可以将这一属类作为一个整体加以统一。根据这个隐喻，圣洁是通过某种凝视而获得的，最终是通过占据上帝关注领域的中心而获得的。
