摘要

长期以来,评论家们一直在努力弄清楚乌鸦在以利亚的故事中扮演的角色,他们质疑为什么这些以残忍著称的掠食性鸟类会在物资匮乏的时候被招募来分享他们的食物。本文以《圣经》中乌鸦的接受史为主题,考虑到不同的解释者如何利用乌鸦的观察知识来解释乌鸦在《列王纪上》17章中喂养以利亚和《创世纪》8章中诺亚在洪水之后委托乌鸦的神秘作用。这篇文章回顾并重现了这一解释传统,将接受历史的片段与现代鸟类学家对乌鸦的研究结合在一起,为我们如何理解乌鸦在照顾和喂养以利亚中的特殊意义提供了一些见解。

Thirteen Ways of Looking at Elijah’s Blackbirds
Abstract Commentators have long struggled to make sense of the role that ravens play in the story of Elijah, questioning why these predatory birds with a reputation for cruelty would be recruited to share their food during a time of scarcity. This essay takes up the reception history of biblical ravens, considering how various interpreters have drawn upon observational knowledge of ravens to explain the mysterious role ravens play in the feeding of Elijah in 1 Kings 17 and Noah’s commission of the raven in the wake of the flood in Genesis 8. The essay both recalls and reenacts this interpretive tradition by assembling together pieces of this reception history together with the work of modern ornithologists on the corvus corax to provide some insights for how we might understand the particular significance of ravens in the care and feeding of Elijah.

期刊介绍: This innovative and highly acclaimed journal publishes articles on various aspects of critical biblical scholarship in a complex global context. The journal provides a medium for the development and exercise of a whole range of current interpretive trajectories, as well as deliberation and appraisal of methodological foci and resources. Alongside individual essays on various subjects submitted by authors, the journal welcomes proposals for special issues that focus on particular emergent themes and analytical trends. Over the past two decades, Biblical Interpretation has provided a professional forum for pushing the disciplinary boundaries of biblical studies: not only in terms of what biblical texts mean, but also what questions to ask of biblical texts, as well as what resources to use in reading biblical literature. The journal has thus the distinction of serving as a site for theoretical reflection and methodological experimentation.
