摘要

本文以《圣经》中“异教徒”的概念为出发点,考察了1649年至1660年英国共和国时期,英格兰新教牧师和教区居民对殖民地新英格兰地区土著非基督徒的皈依所持的态度。这篇文章将《诗篇》第2篇作为一个框架来考察,在这个框架中,教徒们解释了非基督教,然后转向了那些为宗教扩张事业捐款的教区居民的零碎的自传。这篇文章阐明了新政府在追求合法性与海外传福音的态度相结合时所制定的实际策略,展示了礼仪、牧区、政治和社会经济环境如何塑造了当地与更广阔的大西洋世界的接触。它表明,英国人对福音传播的支持源于深刻的神学矛盾心理,因为对非信徒的敌意与对其中一些人可以皈依并可能得救的信念并存。

“I Shall Give Thee the Heathen for Thine Inheritance”
Taking the scriptural concept of the ‘heathen’ as its starting point, this article investigates the attitudes of Protestant ministers and parishioners in England towards the conversion of indigenous non-Christian people in colonial New England during the years of the English republic from 1649 to 1660. The article examines Psalm 2 as a framework within which churchgoers interpreted non-Christianity, before turning to the fragmentary prosopography of parishioners who donated money towards the cause of religious expansion. Illuminating the practical strategies that the new government developed as its pursuit of legitimacy intersected with attitudes towards evangelism overseas, the article demonstrates the ways in which liturgical, pastoral, political and socio-economic circumstances shaped local engagement with the wider Atlantic world. It suggests that English support for the propagation of the gospel emerged from profound theological ambivalence as animosity towards non-believers co-existed with the conviction that some among them could convert and might be saved.
