| Итог: | This study examines the passages in which the Akedah is tacitly referenced by the Fourth Evangelist to explain who Christ was for his community. It identifies a plethora of thematic and linguistic expressions in John that are parallel to the developing tradition of Isaac's willing sacrifice. This analysis begins with a linguistic examination of Jewish texts that speak of an "only"/"beloved\" child in the context of sacrifice (Gen 22; Judg 11:29–40; and 2 Kgs 2:26–27), and explores the translation of these terms into Greek (יחיד to μονογενής/ἀγαπητός). Secondly, key thematic developments in the evolution of the Akedah are explored in relation to John's Gospel. This study concludes that John consciously employed an Isaac-typology, and its characteristic vocabulary, to elaborate upon the meaning of Jesus' sacrifice. |
