religion:\u00a0 Pre-prophetic, prophetic, post-prophetic or priestly.<\/p>\n<p>The <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">pre-prophetic<\/span> is a mixed cult. \u00a0The pre-exilic prophets\u2014Amos, Hosea, Micah, Isaiah, Jeremiah\u2014represent a spiritual awakening in history. \u00a0It might be part of the general movement of Zoroaster whose teaching affected the life of the Hebrews. \u00a0The <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">prophetic<\/span> follows the worship of Jehovah. \u00a0The post-prophetic (priestly) is the legalizing of Jehovah. \u00a0This period is Judaism, the founding of the second temple, the synagogue, the Pharisees, and an organized cult.<\/p>\n<p>Amos is one of the earliest prophets.\u00a0 Genesis and Kings II have four or five main documents showing the people affected by prophetic teaching. \u00a0There is no \u201cpure\u201d pre-prophetic phase. \u00a0First there was YHVH (Yahveh) which became Jehovah, the tribal, ancestral God of the Hebrews.\u00a0 This is what the prophets preached. \u00a0The pre-prophetic religion which the prophets attacked as not \u201cpure\u201d: that is, it had a mixture of other gods.\u00a0 The mixing of cults was wrong, and the wrongness hinged on the ritual and the ceremony.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">REVELATION IS CONSOLIDATED REALITY<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The prophets emphasized doctrine and teaching.\u00a0 Judaism, or the priestly period, was the synthesis of religious doctrine with the prophetic teaching.\u00a0 The prophets were actuated by a feeling of moral evil on the part of any mixed cult.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">WHAT CAUSED THIS FEELING?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Palestine is an agricultural country, a land flowing with milk and honey.\u00a0 Its chief products are grain, wine, oil.\u00a0 Before that, the people were nomads with their herds.\u00a0 The tradition is that the Hebrews were not always farmers.\u00a0 They learned it from the surrounding people.\u00a0 For the nomads, the sun is a destroyer and the moon is a friend.\u00a0 The word for moon is <em>halle<\/em> = hallelujah. \u00a0The nomads were not interested in rain and nature.\u00a0 Abel is the idealized shepherd but the real shepherd is descended from Cain, whose name means smith, artificer.\u00a0 Cain founded the first city.<\/p>\n<p>Reflected in this nomad-farmer background we see the steady expansion of civilization from farm to city.\u00a0 Every time this happens, the land of the nomads has been cut off\u2014by barbarians, Tartars, Huns, and so on, which inspires panic.\u00a0 We see it in American western stories of the ranger menaced by the city slicker.<\/p>\n<p>Abel\u2019s sacrifice was accepted, but the bloodless one of Cain was not accepted.\u00a0 There is the paradox of the killing of Abel. \u00a0It is the death of humankind and marks war as a state of existence, springing from Cain, the artificer of the ploughshare and the sword.<\/p>\n<p>In the story of Isaac and Abraham (Chapter 22), we see God accepting animal sacrifice still, but he doesn\u2019t like human sacrifice.\u00a0 The Canaanites practised it, and the characteristic of the Kings Who Went Wrong is that they practised the rites of the kings about them, human sacrifice. \u00a0Ahaz was influenced by the Israelites in this respect.<\/p>\n<p>Connected with sacrifice is the idea of transference of power.\u00a0 The king is the reservoir of force, like a charge of electricity.\u00a0 The more he is a reservoir of power the more fragile he becomes, the more enmeshed he is in taboos. \u00a0When he is killed you\u2019ll feel something pretty terrific.\u00a0 This electric energy must go into the tribe, so they drink his blood and eat his flesh.<\/p>\n<p>Human sacrifice is also a communion.\u00a0 The body of the king becomes the body of the tribe; the social body is the incarnate leader.\u00a0 The king\u2019s successor gets his share; he is smeared with fat, the anointed one.\u00a0 In the art form of tragedy, the king is killed on stage and his body and blood pass into the audience.\u00a0 That is catharsis.<\/p>\n<p>However, a society so organized is not that stable.\u00a0 Some modifications came in with the idea of substitution, his own son or his wife.\u00a0 The king must die at the height of his power, about age thirty.\u00a0 The substitute king can be a captive from another tribe who may be made mock king for a while.\u00a0 It varies in tribes; he can be the buffoon or like the king.\u00a0 Christ has both the triumphal ride and the mockery.\u00a0 Sometimes it was the sacrifice of the king\u2019s son or mock-son.\u00a0 For the Canaanites, it was the son.<\/p>\n<p>To a farming community, the king is solidarity.\u00a0 This is different from the solidarity of a nomad tribe.\u00a0 The centre of gravity in the farming community is in the land and its fertility, the harvest.\u00a0 Their king would be the harvest and the vintage, the bread and the wine.\u00a0 The God of farmland incorporates the forces of nature and the fertility of the crops.\u00a0 He sums up literally the social solidarity which is the wine and grain as his blood and body.\u00a0 It is not symbolic here.\u00a0 The tribe still has the leader who <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">is<\/span> their blood and body.<\/p>\n<p>Human sacrifice is not a bribe in this sense, but a communion with a god incarnate in a man.\u00a0 The original victim was a god-man; then came a substitute.\u00a0 The victim of the sacrifice would have more than human quality as the son of the god.\u00a0 There are rituals that are bribery to some demon in the sky.\u00a0 But the true religious impulse doesn\u2019t think of God as separate but as incarnate in<span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"> a<\/span> man.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lecture 6.\u00a0
