Wie hier beschrieben, möchte ich in einer neuen Serie das überlieferte "Wort Gottes" zusammenstellen.

Als Quelle dient mir: https://www.bibleserver.com/start, und zwar die Elberfelderbibel, da es das Anliegen der Verfasser war, wenn auch in teilweise etwas holprigen Deutsch, so nahe wie möglich an den Urtexten zu bleiben.

Das Interessante an der Scofield Bibel und der Elberfelder Bibel sind eigentlich die Fußnoten und Querverweise, die ein unvergleichliches Studienerlebnis ermöglichen.

Andererseits ist es auch interessant, den bloßen Bibeltext zu lesen und sich vom "Tröster" in der Interpretation leiten zu lassen.

Falls sich der ein oder andere frägt, was wohl Sinn dieses Unterfangens sein sollte: Ich möchte dem "Willen Gottes" der uns in aktiver Rede überliefert ist so nahe wie möglich kommen und ihn so kompakt wie möglich zusammenfassen um ihn für mich und die Menschheit verständlicher, greifbarer, umsetzbarer etc. werden zu lassen.

Guten Morgen - und weiter geht's mit 5 Mose 25 ;-)

Amalek: Amalek (Hebrew: עֲמָלֵק‬, Modern Amalek, Tiberian ʻĂmālēq, Arabic: عماليق‎ 'Amaaleeq) is a nation described in the Old Testament of the Hebrew Bible. The name "Amalek" can refer to the nation's founder, a grandson of Esau; his descendents, the Amalekites; or the territories of Amalek which they inhabited.

The Old Testament describes the Amalekites as a tribe which lived in ancient Israel and in the land called Moab, in what the Romans called Arabia Petraea (Moab and the desert of Sinai), a region depopulated in the fourteenth century BC and then occupied by Edomites.

According to the Book of Genesis and 1 Chronicles, Amalek was the son of Eliphaz and the concubine Timna. Timna was a Horite and sister of Lotan. Amalek appears in the genealogy of Esau (Genesis 36:12; 1 Chronicles 1:36) who was the chief of an Edomite tribe (Genesis 36:16). Amalek is described as the "chief of Amalek" in Genesis 36:16, in which it is surmised that he ruled a clan or territory named after him. In the chant of Balaam at Numbers, 24:20, Amalek was called the 'first of the nations', attesting to high antiquity. Rashi states: "He came before all of them to make war with Israel". First-century Roman-Jewish scholar and historian Flavius Josephus refers to Amalek as a 'bastard' (νόθος) in a derogatory sense.

According to the Old Testament, the Amalekites inhabited the Negev. They are commonly considered to be Amalek's descendants through the genealogy of Esau. This is probably based on the association of this tribal group with the steppe region of ancient Israel and the area of Kadesh (Genesis 14:7). As a people, the Amalekites were identified as a recurrent enemy of the Israelites.

Amalek may mean "dweller in the valley". In some rabbinical interpretations, Amalek is etymologised as a people am, who lick blood, but most specialists regard the origin to be unknown.

The Amalekites appear to have lived a nomadic or seminomadic lifestyle along the fringes of southern Canaan's agricultural zone.

In Exodus 17:8–16, Amalek makes war against Israel in the wilderness. Joshua is tasked by Moses to lead Israel in battle, and Moses watches from a hillside. When his hand is raised, Israel prevails, but when it is lowered, Israel falters. So Moses keeps his hand raised the entire battle, even having assistants hold him up, so that the battle will go to Israel.

According to 1 Samuel 30:1–2, the Amalekites invaded the Negev and Ziklag in the Judean/Philistine border area towards the end of the reign of King Saul, burning Ziklag and taking its citizens away into captivity. The future king David led a successful mission against the Amalekites to recover "all that the Amalekites had carried away".

In 2 Samuel 1:5–10, an Amalekite tells David that he found Saul leaning on his spear after the battle of Gilboa and killed him and removed his crown. David has the Amalekite put to death for his action in killing the anointed king.

"Jesus sagte zu ihm: Ich bin der Weg und die Wahrheit und das Leben; niemand kommt zum Vater außer durch mich."
