摘要
圣经兼具神学—伦理学、史学、文学三重性质,其大部分篇幅不同程度地合乎"纯文学"定义。圣经基本上用古希伯来文和希腊文写成,有一套复杂的文学规则,难以为现代读者所驾驭,而特别需要文学批评家的引导。文学研究不仅是进行神学思辨的必要前提,而且能开拓理解圣经神学的新途径。从文学角度进行的圣经研究古已有之且绵延不绝,20世纪中期以后呈现出繁荣兴盛的新局面。当代中国内地的圣经文学研究取得了多方面成就,也存在不少问题,有待于进一步发展和提高。
The Bible has triplex qualities of theological-ethnics , history and literature, and most of its qualities con- form to the definition of 'belles-lettres' in different degrees. Written basically by ancient Hebrews and Greeks, the Bible has a set of complex literature rules, which is hard for modern readers to grasp, that is, particularly needs literature critics to channel off. Literature study is not only an essential precondition of theological thinking, however, that being said,it can also carve out a new approach to comprehend biblical theology. Studies on the Bible from the angle of literature are of long standing and continue until now, and it has presented a booming phase since 1950s. Modern Chinese biblical scholars in the mainland have acquired some achievements, but also have some problems, therefore, it needs to be improved and developed further.
