Der eine und einzige Gott
Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht (Verlag)
978-3-525-55015-1 (ISBN)
The author presents the tradition of monotheistic ideas and formulas in three parts, beginning with non-Jewish world, then turning to the Old Testament and finally to the New Testament. She studies the to date little known beginnings of non-Jewish monotheistic thinking, for example, among the Greek Presocratics, Plato and the Stoics up to the beginnings of the Roman Empire. The second chapter is devoted to the use of monotheistic formulas in the Old Testament and in the Jewish writings of Greek and Roman times. In the third chapter the author asks how it was possible that early Chistianity, having received the monotheistic creed of God the Father, could have accepted Jesus Christ as a divine figure - as the "son" next to the "father."

The thesis focuses on the question of Monotheism, particularly on the semantic analysis of Hebrew and Greek formulas. It follows the beginnings of the monotheistic thinking outside Judaism, starting by Presocratics, Plato and Stoics, writers and rhetors like Cicero, Epictet, Plutarch and Aristides, and ending in the Roman Period. Various texts, inscriptions, hymns are analyzed in order to demonstrate the traces of pagan monotheism.The second chapter concentrates on the usage of monotheistic formulas and expressions in the Old Testament and in the Jewish literature of the Hellenistic period, including the writings of Philo and Flavius Josephus. In the third part the usage of these specific formulas in the New Testament and by the Church fathers is explored. This chapter also deals with the Question, how it was possible that Christianity, with its inherited monotheistic belief, deified Jesus Christ and put him alongside the Father. It concentrates on the usage of such formulas in the early church, whether they indicate interest in the nations or rather represent traditional patterns. The thesis as a whole proves that such formulas were not just private witness but finally had a strong impact on the structure of the early church.>
