Eschatological Sanctuary in Exodus 15:17 and Related Texts

After crossing the Reed Sea, Moses and the Israelites celebrate Yahweh’s victory over the Egyptians in the «Song of the Sea» (Exod. 15:1-18). Much of the song rejoices over their recent deliverance, but its latter portion anticipates what Yahweh would do for his people in the future. Specifically, he will lead them past enemy nations and «plant» them on a mountain. Also included in this context is a reference to «the sanctuary, O Lord, which your hands have established» (v. 17). Commentators throughout the history of interpretation have understood this «sanctuary» as a reference to Solomon’s temple on Mount Zion.However, since the temple was eventually destroyed, equating it with a divinely «established» sanctuary is questionable. Eschatological Sanctuary in Exodus 15:17 and Related Texts argues that the sanctuary mentioned in Exod. 15:17 does not refer to Solomon’s temple or to any other «man-made» structure but to an eschatological sanctuary distinctively established by divine hands. Such an understanding of this sanctuary impacts the theology of the Pentateuch and provides a reference point for predictions of an eschatological temple in the Prophets and the Writings and for references to unconventional temples in the New Testament.

WINNER OF THE TAIWAN LITERATURE AWARD"An uncompromising, unsentimental, slyly humorous novel." IRISH TIMES“A haunting drama of a Taiwanese family’s efforts to rise out of poverty.” PUBLISHERS WEEKLYKeith Chen, the desperately yearned for second son of a traditional Taiwanese family with five daughters, refuses to play the role his parochial parents would cast him in.

After Keith’s release from a maximum security prison, he has nowhere to go but home.

Nach mehreren Jahren Haft in einem Berliner Gefängnis kehrt Tianhong zurück in sein taiwanisches Heimatdorf: Yongjing, was ewiger Frieden bedeutet, doch für Tianhong alles andere ist als das. Als jüngstes von sieben Geschwistern wuchs er mit Aberglauben, Klischees und unverrückbaren Rollenbildern auf und floh nach Berlin, in der Hoffnung, dort ein freies, selbstbestimmtes Leben als homosexueller Mann führen zu können. Doch seine Ehe mit einem Deutschen beendet er mit dem Mord an ihm. Wie konnte es dazu kommen?Am Tag des Geisterfestes, just dem Tag seiner Rückkehr ins Dorf, beschwört Tianhong einen vielstimmigen Chor aus Lebenden und Verstorbenen, gegenwärtigen und vergangenen Erfahrungen herauf, und Stück für Stück bildet sich ein Mosaik der Leben zwischen den Extremen ab: Dort ist die tote Mutter, die sich immer nur wünschte, einen Sohn zu gebären, doch zuerst nur fünf Töchter bekam; der Ehemann, der aus Hoffnung auf einen großen Preis Orchideen züchtete; die Schwester, die sich aus Angst vor dem, was sich hinter den Fenstern verbirgt, ins Dunkel zurückzog, und der Dorfdepp, der der Schlaueste von allen war.In einem wirbelnden Sog verknüpft Kevin Chen Geschichten von Familiengeheimnissen mit freundschaftlichem Zusammenhalt, von Neugier nach der Fremde mit einem unbegreiflichen Heimweh, von Armut und Macht mit dem unermüdlichen Kampf für die eigene Identität.

Taiwanilainen sukuromaani, kasvutarina ja murhamysteeri

”Aaveet ovat tulossa, ja minäkin olen palannut kotiin."

T’ien-hung on seitsenlapsisen perheen kuopus, jolta perinteisten arvojen nimeen vannova perhe odottaa paljon. Pian käy kuitenkin ilmi, ettei hänestä välttämättä ole kantamaan suvun kunniaa. Pojan orastava homoseksuaalisuus on liikaa pikkukaupungin yhteisölle ja ahdasmieliselle perheelle, joka ajaa hänet tiehensä. Nuori mies päätyy ensin Taipeihin ja sieltä Berliiniin.

Kymmenen vuotta myöhemmin T’ien-hung palaa ensi kertaa kotiseudulleen. Hän on juuri vapautunut berliiniläisestä vankilasta, jossa hän istui miesystävänsä surmasta. Kotikaupunki ei ole kuitenkaan entisensä. Perheen vanhemmat ovat poissa, eivätkä sisaruksetkaan ole välttyneet elämän kolhuilta.

T’ien-hungin tutkiessa entisiä kotikulmiaan lukijalle avautuu vähitellen kuva perheen ja kaupungin menneisyydestä. Elävien ja kuolleiden äänten mosaiikista muodostuu koskettava kertomus särkyneistä perhesuhteista, perinteisten normien kahleista ja oman identiteetin etsimisestä.

Kirjan on suomentanut Rauno Sainio.

Kevin Chen on taiwanilainen kirjailija, joka asuu nykyisin Saksassa. Aavekaupunki on hänen ensimmäinen suomennettu teoksensa. Se voitti ilmestymisvuonnaan 2020 Taiwanin kirjallisuuspalkinnon.

“Voimakas ja tarkkanäköinen Aavekaupunki osoittaa, kuinka tiukasti pidämme kiinni menneisyyden haamuista.” – Library Journal

”Mitä lähemmäksi pääsemme perheen kipupistettä, sitä tuskallisemmaksi Aavekaupunki muuttuu: vaikka yksikään henkilöhahmo ei tunnu täysin omalta, ei voi olla tunnistamatta itseään joka ainoassa.” – Buzzmag
