Abstract | Mythological elements in the Old Testament have been traditionally considered as influences of Baalistic cults, or literary images without any theological meaning in Israelite religion. But if, as more and more scholars now suggest, Hebrew Bible in its present form should be considered an Hellenistic book, a shift of perspective is needed in the study of the history of the religion of ancient Israel. The Old Testament was a re-interpretation of traditional religion and, at the same time, the foundation of a new one. A striking parallel can be found in the evolution of the religion of ancient Iran. |
