Abstract

In Nth power lottery, a lottery within a lottery, as envisioned by Deleuze, the frame, the pragmatic circumstances that surround the game (e.g., its rules), are also given to chance. I argue that both the ceremonial, Temple-based, Yom Kippur lottery in the Bible and Talmud, and the subsequent idea of Yom Kippur as a heavenly lot-casting day, as expressed in the Midrash, liturgy, Hasidic thought, and even folklore tales recounting games of chance during Yom Kippur, follow the Nth power paradigm. Reading these texts in light of this paradigm, and analysing this paradigm in light of the phenomenology of mise en abyme—a mimetic double at the heart of the imitatee—reveals a unique process-theology, where the act of repentance is mise en abyme of a radically absent imitatee—the ‘Before God’—and eventually an incarnation of it.

赎罪日礼仪法、哈西德派思想和早期现代民间传说中的权力彩票和对未来的模仿
在第n次幂彩票中,正如德勒兹所设想的那样,围绕游戏的框架和实用环境(例如其规则)也被赋予了机会。我认为,《圣经》和《塔木德》中以神庙为基础的仪式、赎罪日摇号,以及后来将赎罪日视为天堂的摇号日的观念(如《米德拉什》、礼拜仪式、哈西德派思想,甚至是讲述赎罪日期间机会游戏的民间传说所表达的那样),都遵循了第n种力量范式。根据这种范式来阅读这些文本,并根据模仿者的现象学来分析这种范式——模仿者的核心——揭示了一个独特的过程——神学,忏悔的行为是一个根本缺席的模仿者的模仿者的模仿者——“在上帝面前”——最终是它的化身。

期刊介绍: Founded on the conviction that the disciplines of theology and philosophy have much to gain from their mutual interaction, The Heythrop Journal provides a medium of publication for scholars in each of these fields and encourages interdisciplinary comment and debate. The Heythrop Journal embraces all the disciplines which contribute to theological and philosophical research, notably hermeneutics, exegesis, linguistics, history, religious studies, philosophy of religion, sociology, psychology, ethics and pastoral theology. The Heythrop Journal is invaluable for scholars, teachers, students and general readers.
