By Jean Soler. 2004
" Jean Soler se penche sur la signification des interdits alimentaires et des rites sacrificiels dans la Bible. Il met…
en évidence l'usage symbolique de la nourriture dans les comportements rituels des Hébreux : interdiction de consommer certaines viandes décrétées impures, jeûnes pouvant aller jusqu'à l'interdiction totale de boire, sacrifices d'animaux : quel sens revêt donc un tel sacrifice pour un Dieu qu'on appelle précisément le " Dieu vivant " ? Le sacrifice du Christ se situe-t-il en continuité ou en rupture avec cette tradition ? Avec ce volume, paru précédemment sous le titre Vie et mort dans la Bible, s'achève la trilogie que Jean Soler a consacrée à une lecture historique serrée des textes bibliques, pour comprendre comment s'est inventé le monothéisme. Il propose ici le volet anthropologique d'une enquête dont L'Invention du monothéisme présentait la dimension métaphysique et La Loi de Moïse celle de la morale.
