Abstract

Abstract Within the books of Samuel and Kings, there are three royal figures who put on disguises in the final days of their reigns. This article examines the theme of disguise and how it functions in 1Sam 28, 1Kgs 14 and 1Kgs 22. Disguises serve two purposes within these texts: first, they help the characters cover up their provenance in their attempts to avoid God’s word and other people. Second, disguises also serve to reveal the characters’ attitude and intentions towards God’s prophetic word. Despite the attempts made to manipulate the prophetic word, these disguises are not only futile, but God’s word has the final say. Attention is also paid to how the motif of »disguise« helps to explain the nature of judgments that close these narratives.

(你是)伪装的魔鬼:《撒母耳记》和《列王记》中的伪装主题

在《撒母耳记和列王纪》中，有三位王室人物在统治的最后几天乔装打扮。这篇文章探讨了伪装的主题以及它在撒上28章，14章和22章中的作用。在这些文本中，伪装有两个目的:首先，他们帮助人物掩盖他们的来源，试图避开上帝的话语和其他人。其次，伪装也有助于揭示人物对上帝预言的态度和意图。尽管有人企图操纵预言的话语，但这些伪装不仅是徒劳的，而且上帝的话语有最终的决定权。我们还注意到“伪装”的母题如何帮助解释结束这些叙述的判断的本质。
